In physics, it is important to use mathematical approximations. for instance, in a small angle approximation, tanα ∼ sin α . fin

d the largest angle α for which the difference between the sine and the tangent of an angle is less than 10.4% of the sinα value. answer in units of rad.

Note that x is measured in radians.
The percent difference or error between sin(x) and tan(x) is calculated as 
d = 100( \frac{|sin(x)-tan(x)|}{sin(x)} )

We want this percent difference to be less than 10.4%.
Because tan(x) > sin(x) for small values of x, define
f(x) =  \frac{tan(x)-sin(x)}{sin(x)}= 0.104 \\ or \\ sec(x) - 1  = 0.104 \\ sec(x) = 1.104

From the calculator, obtain
sec⁻¹ 1.104 = 0.4375

Answer:  x = 0.4375 radians

At Greenwood Landscaping, rock costs $47.50 per ton. How much would 2.5 tons cost?
Grace [21]

Answer:

Hey!

Your answer is $118.75!

Step-by-step explanation: How did I get this?

<u>STEP 1:</u> So we know that for a ton of rock costs us $47.50...

To get 2 tons all we have to do is to MULTIPLY $47.50 by 2...

<em><u>(47.50 x 2 = 95)</u></em>

<u>STEP 2: </u>So for $95, you will get 2 tons of rock!

Now to get the .5 tons of rock in price form, we have to get the price of the whole 2.5 tons and DIVIDE BY 2

<em><u>(47.50 ÷ 2 = 23.75)</u></em>

<u>STEP 3:</u> So now we have the costs for 2 tons and the price for HALF a ton.

What we do now is easy...we ADD THE VALUES TOGTHER!

<em><u>(95 + 23.75 = $118.75)</u></em>

The result of $118.75 after adding them together is the PRICE OF 2 TONS!

<u>I HOPE THIS HELPED YOU!</u>

Which number is a solution of the inequality 8 - 1/4 b &gt; 27
Brrunno [24]

The inequality is 8-1/4x>27. The solution of the inequality is b<-76.

Given that,

The inequality is 8-1/4x>27

We must determine how to address the inequity.

Take,

8-1/4x>27

Multiply the inequality's two sides by its lowest common denominator,

4×8-4×1/4b>27×4

Reduce the expression to the lowers term,

4×8-b>4×27

Calculate the product or quotient,

32-b>4×27

Calculate the product or quotient,

32-b>108

Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation,

-b>108-32

Calculate the sum or difference,

-b>76

Divide the inequality's two sides by the variable's coefficient,

b<-76

Therefore, the solution of the inequality is b<-76.
