Need help with linear approximation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dmitrij [34]2 years ago
5 0
Consider a function f(x), the linear approximation L(x) of f(x) is given by

L(x)=f(a)+(x-a)f'(a)

Given the quantity: \frac{1}{203}

We approximate the quantity using the function f(x)= \frac{1}{x}, where x = 203.

We choose a = 200, thus the linear approximation is given as follows:

L(203)=f(200)+(203-200)f'(200) \\  \\ = \frac{1}{200} - \frac{3}{200^2} = \frac{200-3}{200^2} = \frac{197}{40,000} =0.004925

Given that parallelogram ABCD and angle D=145 what is the measure of angle C
stiv31 [10]
Opposite angles of parallelogram are equal.
sum of interior angles of parallelogram is 360 degrees.

Therefore,
A + B + C + D = 360
x + 145 + x + 145 = 360 
x = 35
Therefore angle C is 35 degrees

Which congruence statements are true? Choose all answers that are correct?<br><br> A: B: C: D:
tester [92]

Answer:

Correct choices are A and C

Step-by-step explanation:

Inscribed angles property: The inscribed angles subtended by the same arc are equal.

1. Angles EFH and EGH are both inscribed angles subtended by the arc EH. Therefore, these angles are congruent (option A is true).

2. Angles GHF and GEF are both inscribed angles subtended by the arc GF. Therefore, these angles are congruent (option C is true).

3. Angles EGH and FHG are interior angles of the triangle KGH and can be congruent (if triangle is isosceles) or can be not congruent (in general). Thus, option B is false.

4. Angles EFH and FHG in general are not congruent. They can be congruent only when arcs EH and FG have the same measure. In general, option D is false.

What is the value of the y coordinate of any point on the x axis?
Leona [35]

The value of the y coordinate of any point on the x axis is always 0.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

Suppose, the co ordinate of any point is (a,b) .

It means, the distance of the point from x-axis is 'b' and distance from y-axis is 'a'.

Now if the point lies on the x-axis, that means the distance of the point from x-axis will be 0. Thus, the value of 'b' will be 0.

So, the value of the y coordinate of any point on the x axis is always 0.
