First of all, negative numbers will surely come before positive ones. So, let's compare -2.3 and -1/3.

One is a number, one is a fraction. You can either turn the fraction to number, or the number to fraction. The first option is surely easier: we have -1/3 = -0.333...

So, -1/3 is closer to 0 than -2.3, so we have -2.3 < -\frac{1}{3}

As for the positive numbers, we have to order \sqrt{7},\ \sqrt{3},\ 5.1. When dealing with positive numbers, it is true that x < y \implies x^2 < y^2. So, we can square the numbers to get rid of the roots: we have

3 = \sqrt{3}^2 < 7 = \sqrt{7}^2 < 26.01 = 5.1^2.

So, the ordered list is the following:

-2.3,\ -\frac{1}{3}, \sqrt{3},\ \sqrt{7},\ 5.1

Use the algebraic procedure explained in section 8.9 in your book to find the derivative of f(x)=1/x. Use h for the small number
Triss [41]

Answer:

By definition, the derivative of f(x) is

lim_{h\rightarrow 0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}

Let's use the definition for f(x)=\frac{1}{x}

lim_{h\rightarrow 0} \frac{\frac{1}{x+h}-\frac{1}{x}}{h}=\\lim_{h\rightarrow 0} \frac{\frac{x-(x+h)}{x(x+h)}}{h}=\\lim_{h\rightarrow 0} \frac{\frac{(-1)h}{x^2+xh}}{h}=\\lim_{h\rightarrow 0} \frac{(-1)h}{h(x^2+xh)}=\\lim_{h\rightarrow 0} \frac{-1}{x^2+xh)}=\frac{-1}{x^2+x*0}=\frac{-1}{x^2}

Then, f'(x)=\frac{-1}{x^2}

Use Inverse Operations to solve.Check Your Answer<br><br> 17 + k = 54
lesya [120]
When you do the inverse operation which in this case would be subtraction you do  54-17 and then you do 17 minus 17 which leaves you with the variable 54-17=34 so k=34

Q7) A rectangular piece of land measures 8 m by 5m. It is to be fenced with four lines of wire. What length of wire is needed fo
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

26 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Find what length is needed for fencing by finding the perimeter of the land.

Use the perimeter formula, P = 2l + 2w

Plug in the length and width:

P = 2l + 2w

P = 2(8) + 2(5)

P = 16 + 10

= 26

So, the length of wire needed is 26 m

Three times a number, less twice the number and 9 is 17. What is the number?
Harlamova29_29 [7]
I believe your answer is 8.

Three times a number less than twice the number and nine is seventeen can be written as: 3n - 2n + 9 = 17

Solve for n as follows:

3n - 2n = n 

n + 9 = 17

17 - 9 = 8

Hope this helps! :)
