According to the rules of significant figures, 4.57 + 6.3 = 10.9. This is because the least precise value in the problem is 6.3,

which is precise only to the tenths digit, so the answer must also be rounded to the nearest tenth.
A. True
B. False

<span>This is true. Because we don’t have more precision our of 6.3, we cannot append more digits with any certainty. We must omit the digit in the hundredths place in order to have a solutionwith correct precision using significant figures.</span>

Consider the system of differential equations dxdt=−4ydydt=−4x. Convert this system to a second order differential equation in y
koban [17]

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=-4x\implies x=-\dfrac14\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=-\dfrac14\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dt^2}

Substituting this into the other ODE gives

-\dfrac14\dfrac{\mathrm d^2y}{\mathrm dt^2}=-4y\implies y''-16y=0

Since x(t)=-\dfrac14y'(t), it follows that x(0)=-\dfrac14y'(0)=4\implies y'(0)=-16. The ODE in y has characteristic equation

r^2-16=0

with roots r=\pm4, admitting the characteristic solution

y_c=C_1e^{4t}+C_2e^{-4t}

From the initial conditions we get

y(0)=5\implies 5=C_1+C_2

y'(0)=16\implies-16=4C_1-4C_2

\implies C_1=\dfrac12,C_2=\dfrac92

So we have

\boxed{y(t)=\dfrac12e^{4t}+\dfrac92e^{-4t}}

Take the derivative and multiply it by -1/4 to get the solution for x(t):

-\dfrac14y'(t)=\boxed{x(t)=-\dfrac12e^{4t}+\dfrac92e^{-4t}}

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

$6

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the amount of the tip that T.J. and Lindsey will leave for their waiter, you have to multiply the lunch cost for the percentage they want to leave as a tip for their waiter:

Lunch cost=$30

Percentage they want to leave as a tip= 20%

$30*20%=$6

According to this, the answer is that the amount of the tip is $6.

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = –2x + 5 and contains the point
ivann1987 [24]

The given equation is: y+2x=5

To find the line perpendicular to it, we interchange coefficients and switch the signs of one coefficient.

The equation to a line perpendicular to it is:

$ 2y-x=c$

where, $c$ is some constant we have determine using the condition given.

It passes through $(2,-1)$

Put the point in our equation:

$2(-1)-(2)=c$

$c=-2-2$

$c=-4$

The final equation is:

$\boxed{ 2y-x=-4}$
