Answer:
B. 5 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because of the triangle inequality theorem which states "The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side." So, since 5+9 is 14 it has to be less than 14. Also, because 5+2 is 7 and that is not greater than 9 it has to be 5 inches.
Set up a proportion.
The total side of the “top” line is 8 + 10 = 18. The total side of the “bottom” line is 45. This makes the ratio 18/45.
Now we are trying to find the “larger” bottom segment, let it be x. Because the lines are parallel, the ratio of the “larger” top and bottom segments is equal to the ratio of the whole top and bottom lines.
So 18/45 = 10/x
Reduce 2/5 = 10/x
Cross multiply 2x = 50
Solve x = 25
Answer:
R3 <= 0.083
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x)=xlnx,
The derivatives are as follows:
f'(x)=1+lnx,
f"(x)=1/x,
f"'(x)=-1/x²
f^(4)(x)=2/x³
Simialrly;
f(1) = 0,
f'(1) = 1,
f"(1) = 1,
f"'(1) = -1,
f^(4)(1) = 2
As such;
T1 = f(1) + f'(1)(x-1)
T1 = 0+1(x-1)
T1 = x - 1
T2 = f(1)+f'(1)(x-1)+f"(1)/2(x-1)^2
T2 = 0+1(x-1)+1(x-1)^2
T2 = x-1+(x²-2x+1)/2
T2 = x²/2 - 1/2
T3 = f(1)+f'(1)(x-1)+f"(1)/2(x-1)^2+f"'(1)/6(x-1)^3
T3 = 0+1(x-1)+1/2(x-1)^2-1/6(x-1)^3
T3 = 1/6 (-x^3 + 6 x^2 - 3 x - 2)
Thus, T1(2) = 2 - 1
T1(2) = 1
T2 (2) = 2²/2 - 1/2
T2 (2) = 3/2
T2 (2) = 1.5
T3(2) = 1/6 (-2^3 + 6 *2^2 - 3 *2 - 2)
T3(2) = 4/3
T3(2) = 1.333
Since;
f(2) = 2 × ln(2)
f(2) = 2×0.693147 =
f(2) = 1.386294
Since;
f(2) >T3; it is significant to posit that T3 is an underestimate of f(2).
Then; we have, R3 <= | f^(4)(c)/(4!)(x-1)^4 |,
Since;
f^(4)(x)=2/x^3, we have, |f^(4)(c)| <= 2
Finally;
R3 <= |2/(4!)(2-1)^4|
R3 <= | 2 / 24× 1 |
R3 <= 1/12
R3 <= 0.083
