What are the solutions to the equation x2 = 289?

1 answer:

3 0

Because this is a second degree equation you will have 2 solutions. When you take the square root of a number you have to account for both the positive and negative roots. Since the square root of 289 is 17 then your solutions are +17 and -17.

The side length of a square ice cube is claimed to be 1.0 inches, correct to within 0.001 inch. Use linear approximation to esti

Olenka [21]

Answer:

0.012

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear approximation says that,

$f(x) \approx f(x_o)+f'(x_o)(x-x_o)$

For a cube the surface area is $6x^2$ .

So the side is 1.0 inch in, the surface area is $=6\times1^2 = 6$ square inches.

In Linear approximation means you ignore the term $x_o^2$ , if $x_o$ is a small number, because then $x_o^2$ will be a very smalle number and that does not contribute much to the error.

So the surface area is approximately,

$6x^2=6x_o^2+12x_o(x-x_o)$

So here, $x=1.001, x_o=0.001$

The error in the area is approximately,

$12 \times 0.001=0.012$

So the error is 0.012.

f(x) = square root ( x^4 -16x^2) let f be the function given by: . . a) Find the domain of f.. b) Find f '(x). c) Find the slope

Bond [772]

A ) The domain:
$x^{4} -16 x^{2} \geq 0 \\ x^{2} ( x^{2} -16) \geq 0 \\ x^{2} -16 \geq 0 \\ x^{2} \geq 16$
x ≤ -4 and x≥ 4 or: x ∈ ( - ∞ , - 4 ) ∪ ( 4 , + ∞ )
b ) f ` ( x ) = $\frac{1}{2 \sqrt{ x^{4} -16 x^{2} } } *( 4 x^{3} - 32 x ) = \\ = \frac{2x( x^{2} -8)}{ \sqrt{ x^{4}-16 x^{2} } }$
c ) The slope of the line normal to the graph at x = 5
m = -1 / f `(x)
f ` ( x ) = $\frac{10(25-8)}{ \sqrt{625-400} }= \frac{10*17}{15} = \frac{34}{3}$
m = - 3/34
