A UCF student has sampled a differentiable function f(t) at time t=1 and verified thatf(1)=3 & f′(1) = −2, but he needs to e

stimate the value of f(t) at t=1.2. Based on the information he has, what's the best linear approximation for f(1.2)?

Answer:

The value of f(1.2)=y-f'(1.2)(x-1.2).

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given problem the value of taken functions are,

f(1)=3 and f'(1)=-2

Then to estimate the value of f(t) at t=1.2, one can consider the equation of tangent line of the graph of f(x)  at a point x=a  is,

y=f(a)+f'(a)(x-a)\hfill (1)

wnere f(x) is differentiable at the point x=a.

From (1) we can get,

f(a)=y-f'(a)(x-a)

In the present problem a=1, and we know value of f(1) and f'(1).

Hence, at a=1.2 and after finding value of f'(1.2) one can easily find,

f(1.2)=y-f'(1.2)(x-1.2)

which will give the best approximation.

Please explain to me what the Law Of Syllogism is. 100pts... Explain it well please...
3241004551 [841]
The Law Of Syllogism, which is also called Reasoning by Transitivity, is basically if a = b and b = c, then a = c, which is also the transitive property. Hence the alternate name. It can be used for mathematical deductions and is mainly used in the unit of logic statements, such as conditional and inverse statements. Here is an example:
If it is raining today, then I will wear my raincoat.
If I wear my raincoat today, then I will wear my boots.
When we use the Law of Syllogism, we get:
If it is raining today, then I will wear my boots.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!

World war 1 lasted from August 4th 1914 until November 11th, 1918. During this time an estimated 10 million lives were lost. Abo
Kryger [21]
The question is so dry, mechanical, and devoid of emotion
that it's terrifying.

There is no way to assign a number to "How many people were
dying per day", and I would prefer not even to think about it in
those terms.

-- The period of time from August 4, 1914 until November 11, 1918 is 1,560 days.

-- The "average", or better, the "unit rate" of 10 million events in 1,560 days
is the quotient

                   (10,000,000 events) / (1,560 days) 

               =  6,410.3 events per day

               =     267.1 events per hour

               =       4.45 events per minute.


Reciprocally, this is a unit rate of 

                  13.48 seconds per event,
                  sustained continuously for 4.274 years !

When will we ever learn ! ?

Y=6x+20 substitution​
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

-10/3 or -3.33

Step-by-step explanation:

substitute 0 for y

0 = 6x + 20  

-20 = 6x + 20 - 20               subtract 20 on both sides  

-20 = 6x                               divide by 6 on each side

-20/6 = 6x/6

x = -20/6                             simplify

x =   -10/3
