ANSWER

C. 35 men

EXPLANATION

Let m represent the number of men needed and d represent the number of days.

From the question,the number of men needed varies inversely to the time needed to complete the project.

We can write the inverse variation equation.

m =  \frac{k}{d}

where k is the constant of variation.

When m=28, d =90.

We substitute these values into the variation equation to determine the value of k.

28 =  \frac{k}{90}

k = 90 \times 28

k = 252

Now the equation becomes:

m= \frac{2520}{d}

When d=72,

m =  \frac{2520}{72}

m = 35

Therefore he needs to have 35 men working.

3x^2+x-5=0 to 2 decimal place<br> 3x^3+2x-4=0 to 2 decimal place
Schach [20]

Answer:

1. 3/5

2. 1.219841

3. 2 - f(2)/7

4. -1.9682

5. 1.502446

Step-by-step explanation:

If we call

then the second approximation to the root of the equation f(x)=0 would be

hence

2.

Here we have

Let's start with  

then

Since the first 6 decimals of  and  are equal, the desired approximation is 1.219841

3.

If the line y = 4x − 1 is tangent to the curve y = f(x) when x = 2, then f'(2) = 4*2 - 1 = 7, so

4.

Here

5.

We want to find all the values x such that

or what is the same, the x such that

so, let f(x) be

and let's use Newton's method to find the roots of f(x).

Since

f is strictly increasing, and since

f(1) = e+3-9 = e - 6 < 0

and

f has only one root in [1,2]

By using Newton's iterations starting with  

Since  then

x=1.50244564 is the desired root.

The answers as a comma-separated list would be

1,  1.573899431,  1.503982961,  1.502446348, 1.50244564

The answer rounded to six decimal places would be

1.502446

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

The answer to this problem would be A.

Step-by-step explanation:

For childcare facilities for each visit is $9, we would say 9x because we dont know the exact amount of time that she visits the gym with her child. Her monthly gym bill is $32 which would ve added to the amount she would pay for childcare. The sum of it all should be less than or equal to that of $122.
