<h3>Answer:</h3>
  • using y = x, the error is about 0.1812
  • using y = (x -π/4 +1)/√2, the error is about 0.02620
<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The actual value of sin(π/3) is (√3)/2 ≈ 0.86602540.

If the sine function is approximated by y=x (no error at x = 0), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... x -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... π/3 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.18117215 ≈ 0.1812

You know right away this is a bad approximation, because the approximate value is π/3 ≈ 1.04719755, a value greater than 1. The range of the sine function is [-1, 1] so there will be no values greater than 1.

___

If the sine function is approximated by y=(x+1-π/4)/√2 (no error at x=π/4), then the error at x=π/3 is ...

... (x+1-π/4)/√2 -sin(x) @ x=π/3

... (π/12 +1)/√2 -(√3)/2 ≈ 0.026201500 ≈ 0.02620

Ken wants to buy some coffee mugs, m , that cost $5 each and some ground coffee, C, that costs $8 a pound. He has $25.
ValentinkaMS [17]

The inequality representation of the scenario is :

  • 5m + 8c ≤ 25
  • m = 1 and c = 1

  • Number of mugs = m
  • Cost per mug = $5
  • Number of ground coffee = c
  • Cost per ground coffee = $8
  • Total amount to spend = $25

  • (Number of mug × cost per mug) + (Number of ground coffee × cost of ground coffee) ≤total amount to spend

  • Representing as an inequality : 5m + 8c ≤ 25

Combination of m and c that makes the inequality true :

  • Using trial by error :
  • m = 1 and c = 1
  • 5(1) + 8(1) ≤ 25 ; 13 ≤ 25

Hence, m = 1 and c =1 are valid values for the expression.
