F(3) = 16, you simply plug in 3 for x to find the answer.
The answef is 1.83 because if you notice all of them are being divided by 38your answer is 16.5 because youre dividing all dog food in cups by wet food 3 times like 4.5/3 is 1.5 and so on
Answer:
The two iterations of f(x) = 1.5598
Step-by-step explanation:
If we apply Newton's iterations method, we get a new guess of a zero of a function, f(x), xₙ₊₁, using a previous guess of, xₙ.
xₙ₊₁ = xₙ - f(xₙ) / f'(xₙ)
Given;
f(xₙ) = cos x, then f'(xₙ) = - sin x
cos x / - sin x = -cot x
substitute in "-cot x" into the equation
xₙ₊₁ = xₙ - (- cot x)
xₙ₊₁ = xₙ + cot x
x₁ = 0.7
first iteration
x₂ = 0.7 + cot (0.7)
x₂ = 0.7 + 1.18724
x₂ = 1.88724
second iteration
x₃ = 1.88724 + cot (1.88724)
x₃ = 1.88724 - 0.32744
x₃ = 1.5598
To four decimal places = 1.5598
Answer:
5.545
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be easily solved by using the law of cosines, which relates the lengths of the sides of a triangle to the cosine of one of its angles.
in this case, the formula can be applied in the following way
a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2*b*c*cos(α)
Where
a,b,c are each of the sides of the triangle,
α is the angle between sides b and c
(See attached picture)
If we use the formula we get
a^2 = (9)^2 + (6)^2 - 2*(9)(6)*cos(37°)
a^2 = 81 + 36 - 86.2526
a^2 = 30.747
a = sqrt(30.747)
a = 5.545
