Answer:

d = 9

e = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

- 5d + 8e =-21

3d - 4e = 15 | ×2

________________ +

- 5d + 6d + 8e - 8e = - 21 + 30

d = 9

3d - 4e = 15

3×9 - 4e = 15

4e = 27 - 15

4e = 12

e = 3

Answer:

d = 9, e = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

- 5d + 8e = - 21 → (1)

3d - 4e = 15 → (2)

Multiplying (2) by 2 and adding to (1) will eliminate the term in e

6d - 8e = 30 → (3)

Add (1) and (3) term by term to eliminate e, that is

d = 9

Substitute d = 9 into either of the 2 equations and solve for e

Substituting into (2)

3(9) - 4e = 15

27 - 4e = 15 ( subtract 27 from both sides )

- 4e = - 12 ( divide both sides by - 4 )

e = 3

Thus d = 9 and e = 3

Two investments totallng $47,500 produce an annual income of $3000. One investment ylelds 9% per year, while the other yields 6%

enot [183]

Answer:

The correct answer is "$5000".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given values are:

Two investments totaling,

= $47,500

Annual income,

= $3000

One investment yields per year,

= 9%

Other yield,

= 6%

Let,

The amount invested in 9% will be "x".
The amount invested in 6% will be " $47,500-x$ ".

Now,

⇒ $0.09x+0.06(47,500-x)=3000$

⇒ $0.09x+2850-0.06x=3000$

⇒ $0.03x+2850=3000$

⇒ $0.03x=150$

⇒ $x=\frac{150}{0.03}$

⇒ $x=5000$

Calculate two iterations of Newton's Method for the function using the given initial guess. (Round your answers to four decimal

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

The first and second iteration of Newton's Method are 3 and $\frac{11}{6}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Newton's Method is a multi-step numerical method for continuous diffentiable function of the form $f(x) = 0$ based on the following formula:

$x_{i+1} = x_{i} -\frac{f(x_{i})}{f'(x_{i})}$

Where:

$x_{i}$ - i-th Approximation, dimensionless.

$x_{i+1}$ - (i+1)-th Approximation, dimensionless.

$f(x_{i})$ - Function evaluated at i-th Approximation, dimensionless.

$f'(x_{i})$ - First derivative evaluated at (i+1)-th Approximation, dimensionless.

Let be $f(x) = x^{2}-8$ and $f'(x) = 2\cdot x$ , the resultant expression is:

$x_{i+1} = x_{i} -\frac{x_{i}^{2}-8}{2\cdot x_{i}}$

First iteration: ( $x_{1} = 2$ )

$x_{2} = 2-\frac{2^{2}-8}{2\cdot (2)}$

$x_{2} = 2 + \frac{4}{4}$

$x_{2} = 3$

Second iteration: ( $x_{2} = 3$ )

$x_{3} = 3-\frac{3^{2}-8}{2\cdot (3)}$

$x_{3} = 2 - \frac{1}{6}$

$x_{3} = \frac{11}{6}$
