Hello :
f'(7) = the slope of the tangent line : let A(7,4) B(0,3)<span>
<span>the slope is : (YB - YA)/(XB -XA)= (3-4)/(0-7) = -1/-7 = 1/7=f'(7)
the equation of the tangent line is :
y-3 = 1/7 (x-0)
y = (1/7)x+3
the line tangent and the graph of : f </span></span><span>passes through the point A(7, 4)
x= 7 y=4 so : f(7) =4</span>

Big Bob’s Pizza is having a special on pizza and is offering two different choices:

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The Choice N#1 will give more pizza for your money

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of one slice Choice #1

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=22/2=11\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

assume

$\pi =3.14$

The area of one slice is equal to

$A=(1/8)\pi r^{2}$

substitute

$A=(1/8)(3.14)(11)^{2}$

$A=47.4925\ in^{2}$

Divide the cost by the area

$4.95/47.4925=0.10\frac{\$}{in^{2}}$

step 2

Find the area of the entire personal pizza Choice # 2

The area of the circle is equal to

$A=\pi r^{2}$

we have

$r=6/2=3\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

assume

$\pi =3.14$

substitute

$A=(3.14)(3)^{2}$

$A=28.26\ in^{2}$

Divide the cost by the area

$3.75/28.26=0.13\frac{\$}{in^{2}}$

therefore

The Choice N#1 will give more pizza for your money
