Answer:

for the volume a cube

Possible error = 1350cm³

Relative error = 0.05

Percentage error = 5%

For the surface area of a cube

Possible error = 180cm²

Relative error = 0.0333

Percentage error = 3.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube is a three dimensional solid object with six (6) faces, twelve (12) edges and eight(8) vertices.

The volume of a cube = x³

Where x= length of the edge of a cube

X = 30cm 0.5cm

Differentiate V with respect to x (V = Volume of a cube)

dV/dx= 3 x²

dV= 3 x² . dx

dV = 3 × 30² × (0.5)

dV= 2700(0.5)

= 1350cm³

Maximum possible error = 1350cm³

Relative error = possible error /Volume

= dV/V

Recall that V = x³

V= (30)³

A = 27000cm³

Substitute the values for and V into the formula for Relative error

Relative error = 1350/27000

Relative error = 0.05

% error = Relative error × 100

= 0.05× 100

= 5%

Surface Area of a cube = 6x²

A = 6x²

Differentiate A with respect to x

dA/dx = 12x

dA/dx = 12x . dx

= 12 × 30 (0.5)

= 180cm²

Maximum possible error = 180cm²

Relative error = possible error / surface area

= dA/A

Recall that A = 6x²

A = 6(30)²

A = 5400cm²

Substitute the values for and A into the formula for Relative error

Relative error = 180/5400

Relative error = 0.0333(4 decimal place)

% error = Relative error × 100

= 0.0333 × 100

= 3.33%

The difference of six times a number and 7 is -49
gtnhenbr [62]
Greetings!

"<span>The difference of six times a number and 7 is -49"...

In number and variables, this would be:
</span>6x-7=-49&#10;
<span>
Add 7 to both sides.
</span>(6x-7)+7=(-49)+7
<span>Simplify.
</span>6x=-42
Divide both sides by 6.
(6x)/6=(-42)/6
Simplify.
x=-7

Hope this helps.

Select all that are true for g(x) = 10/x (PLEASE ANSWER FAST ILL LOVE YOU FOREVER)
Ksivusya [100]
The given function is:

g(x)= \frac{10}{x}

The parents functions of g(x) will be:

f(x)= \frac{1}{x}

The domain of g(x) and its parent function is the same i.e. Set of all Real numbers except 0.

The range of g(x) and its parent function is the same i.e. set of all real numbers except 0. 

g(x) and its parent function only decrease. They do not increase over any interval. However, the interval in which they decrease is the same for both.

So, the correct answers are:
The domain of g(x) is the same as the domain of the parent function.
<span>The range is the same as the range of the parent function.
</span><span>The function g(x) decreases over the same x-values as the parent function.</span>
