This is not the complete question.

In this we have to truncate the decimal expansion of ^3\sqrt{15} to find the best approximation. The options are:

A) 2.4 <^3\sqrt{15} < 2.5

B) 2.46 < ^3\sqrt{15} < 2.47

C) 2.46 <^3\sqrt{15} < 2.50

D) 2.47 < ^3\sqrt{15} < 2.50

Solution: Consider the cube root of 15,

By using the calculator, we will calculate its cube root.

^3\sqrt{15}=2.4662

Now, we have to find the option which approximates it in the best way.

In option A. It is given between 2.4 and 2.5 which is not the best approximation as the decimal expansion is 2.46 is between 2.46 and 2.47.

In Option B: It is given between 2.46 and 2.47 which is the best approximation as the decimal expansion is between 2.46 and 2.47.

In Option C: It is given between 2.46 and 2.50 which is not the best approximation as the decimal expansion is 2.46 is between 2.46 and 2.47.

In Option D: It is given between 2.47 and 2.50 which is not the best approximation as the decimal expansion is 2.46 is between 2.46 and 2.47.

Hence, The decimal expansion of ^3\sqrt{15} is between 2.46 and 2.47.

So, we get 2.46 < ^3\sqrt{15} < 2.47

Therefore, Option B is the correct answer.

which answer choice explains the pattern for how to find the slope using an equation in standard form?
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Question is using standard formula ax+by=c to find the slope by converting into slope intercept form y=mx+b

so we also need to convert ax+by=c into y=mx+b as shown below:

ax+by=c

ax+by-ax=c-ax

by=-ax+c

divide both sides by

y=-\frac{a}{b}x+\frac{c}{b}

Now compare it with y=mx+b, we get

m=-\frac{a}{b}

So using values of a and b, we can find the slope


compare given equation -5x+2y=15 with ax+by=c, we get:

a=-5, b=2

Now plug both into above formula

m=-\frac{a}{b}

m=-\frac{-5}{2}

m=\frac{5}{2}


Now matching these details with given choices we find that THIRD choice is the final answer.

Here we will use the trial and error method.

  • We will try putting different values of x.
<h3 /><h3>1st of all</h3><h3>x=1</h3>

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 1(1-3)+1-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto (-2)+1-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -2+1-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -2-2=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -4≠0\end{gathered}

<h2>Now,</h2><h3>x=2</h3>

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(2-3)+2-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(-1)+2-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -2+2-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -3≠0\end{gathered}

<h2>Again,</h2><h3>x=3</h3>

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 3(3-3)+3-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 3(3-3)=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 3×0=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 0=0\end{gathered}

<h3>☣Hence, The value of X as 3 satisfies the equation!</h3>
