You want to know the factor by which 3 2/3 is multiplied to get 7 1/3.

1. You can estimate that it is 2 from 7/3 ≈ 2, then check by multiplication to see if that is right.
.. 2*(3 2/3) = 6 4/3 = 7 1/3 . . . . 2 is the correct factor.

2. You can divide 7 1/3 by 3 2/3 to see what the factor is.
.. (7 1/3)/(3 2/3) = (22/3)/(11/3) = 22/11 = 2 . . . . 2 is the factor Earl used.

3. You could see how many times you can subtract 3 2/3 from 7 1/3.
.. 7 1/3 -3 2/3 = (7 -3) +(1/3 -2/3) = 4 -1/3 = 3 2/3 . . . . . subtracting once gives 3 2/3
.. 3 2/3 -3 2/3 = 0 . . . . . . subtracting twice gives 0, so the factor is 2.

4. You could add 3 2/3 to see how many times it takes to get 7 1/3.
.. 3 2/3 +3 2/3 = (3 +3) +(2/3 +2/3) = 6 +4/3 = 7 1/3
We only need to add two values of 3 2/3 to get 7 1/3, so the factor is 2.

___
We have shown methods using multiplication, division, subtraction, addition. Take your pick.

Find the smallest integer n for an O(xn) estimate of order of the function f(x)

alexdok [17]

Answer with explanation:

$f(x)=\frac{(x^3+x^2+5)(x^4-3x^2)}{(2x^2+2x-3)(4x^2+7)}\\\\f(x)=\frac{x^3\times (x^4-3x^2)+x^2 \times (x^4-3x^2)+5 \times (x^4-3x^2)}{2x^2\times (4x^2+7)+2x(4x^2+7)-3\times (4x^2+7)}\\\\f(x)=\frac{x^7-3x^5+x^6-3x^4+5x^4-15x^2}{8x^4+14x^2+8x^3+14 x-12x^2-21}\\\\f(x)=\frac{x^7+x^6-3x^5+2x^4-15x^2}{8x^4+8x^3+2x^2+14 x-21}$

The largest degree of numerator is 7 , while the largest degree of denominator is 4.So, as we know

$\frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}\\\\\frac{x^7}{x^4}=x^{7-4}\\\\=x^3$

→So, order of the function is the highest degree in the function raised to power.Highest degree is 3,when you will reduce the function in Expression form.

So, Degree=3

Order=1

Which quantity is use to generate the error bars on a graph?

rodikova [14]

The error bars are used to indicate the variability of the data presented in a graph.

There are several quantities that can be used to generate error bars in the graph. These are:
standard deviation
standard error
confidence interval

Usually, one standard deviation above and below the mean is used although it is advised to indicate which variability data is used to generate the error bars in the graph since the 3 quantity given are not equal.
