Use differentials to approximate the change in the volume of a cube when the side is decreased from 8 to 7.99 cm. (in cm3)

Answer:

  -1.92 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cube in terms of side length is ...

   V = s³

Then the first-order approximation of volume for a small change ∆s in side length is ...

  V(s +∆s) ≈ V(s) + V'(s)·∆s

and the change in volume is ...

  ∆V ≈ V(s +∆s) -V(s) = V'(s)·∆s

The derivative V'(s) is ...

  V'(s) = 3s²

so the change in volume for s = 8 cm and ∆s = -0.01 cm is ...

  ∆V ≈ 3s²·∆s = 3(8 cm)²(-0.01 cm) = -1.92 cm³

Let the coordinate of P be (x, y), then
(x, y) = ((44(8) + 11(3))/(11 + 44), ((44(0) + 11(-2))/(44 + 11)) = ((352 + 33)/55, -22/55) = (7, -0.4)

The coordinates of P are (7, -0.4)

Express to the nearest whole
valkas [14]

Answer:

88 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

First add up all of your degrees

85+ 87+ 83+ 88+ 91+ 87+ 95= 616

Then divide that amount by the amount of different degrees you had in the question. You have 7 different degrees, so you will divide by 7.

616/7= 88

And boom you have your answer

Lisa [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Cups: servings

8 : 22  :: x : 3

Product of means = product of extremes

22*x = 3*8

   x = \dfrac{3*8}{22}=\dfrac{3*4}{11}=\dfrac{12}{11}=1\dfrac{1}{11}

The slope of the line ​
rjkz [21]
Answer:
-3 or -3/1
Explanation:
It’s going down so it will be negative, it’s always rise over run so rise would be -6 (even tho it goes down which is why it’s a negative) run would be how much it goes over so it would be 2, so it’s -6 over 2 , but then you make the number smaller (simplify) , divide both sections by 2, it would come out to -3 over 1 but the one basically goes away
