Answer:
- g(2.95) ≈ -1.8; g(3.05) ≈ -0.2
- A) tangents are increasing in slope, so the tangent is below the curve, and estimates are too small.
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) The linear approximation of g(x) at x=b will be ...
g(x) ≈ g'(b)(x -b) +g(b)
Using the given relations, this is ...
g'(3) = 3² +7 = 16
g(x) ≈ 16(x -3) -1
Then the points of interest are ...
g(2.95) ≈ 16(2.95 -3) -1 = -1.8
g(3.05) ≈ 16(3.05 -3) -1 = -0.2
__
(b) At x=3, the slope of the curve is increasing, so the tangent lies below the curve. The estimates are too small. (Matches description A.)
if there are 300 raffle tickets and one raffle ticket is drawn, the proabability of drawing the next one is 1 in 299 because there is one less ticket from the previous win
Answer:
- It is a linear equation
- The graph of the equation will show that the <em>y</em> values increase as the <em>x</em> values increase.
Step-by-step explanation:
The pay Michael gets (y) is the amount per paper ($0.40) multiplied by the number of papers (x) and that product added to the daily base pay of $5. Michael's daily pay (in dollars) can be described by ...
y = 5.00 + 0.40x
This is a linear equation with a positive slope (meaning y goes up when x goes up).
