Answer:

(a) 2.81%

(b) 0.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following information from the statement:

P = 64 + - 0.9

(a) We know that the perimeter is:

P = 2 * pi * r

if we solve for r, we have to:

r = P / 2 * pi

We have that the formula of the area is:

A = pi * r ^ 2

we replace r and we are left with:

A = pi * (P / 2 * pi) ^ 2

A = (P ^ 2) / (4 * pi)

We derive with respect to P, and we are left with:

dA = 2 * P / 4 * pi * dP

We know that P = 64 and dP = 0.9, we replace:

dA = 2 * 64/4 * 3.14 * 0.9

dA = 9.17

The error would come being:

dA / A = 9.17 / (64 ^ 2/4 * 3.14) = 0.02811

In other words, the error would be 2.81%

(b) tell us that dA / A <= 0.01

we replace:

[P * dP / 2 * pi] / [P ^ 2/4 * pi] <= 0.01

solving we have:

2 * dP / P <= 0.01

dP / P <= 0.01 / 2

dP / P <= 0.005

Which means that the answer is 0.5%

What is the next number?<br> 2, 7, 26, 101, 400, ?
densk [106]
It is 1595. Put it on excel so you can better have an overview how it is done. You need 5 columns, column A-E. On column A, put 1 to 5 in rows 1 to 5. On column C, put the answers: 2, 7, 26, 101 and 400. On column D, put number 3 in all 5 rows. Back on column B, insert =sum(C1-A1) on row 1 and copy till row 5. On column E, insert =sum(B1+C1*D1) on row 1 and copy till row 5 and you will get 1595 at the end.

A water park charges $5 for entry into the park and an additional $2 for each of the big water slides. Steven spent $17 on his v
Fantom [35]
You didn't give any choices, but the equation looks like this: 17 = 2x + 5.  Solving that for x tells you that he went on a big water slide 6 times. 2 times 6 plus 5 is the $17 he spent at the park.  See how well that works out?
