samuel needs to estimate the product of 23 * 395. explain two different methods Samuel can use to estimate.

1 answer:

6 0

Samuel could round both of the individual numbers, to get s rounded answer. So, he could round 23 to 20, and 395 to 400, to get a product of 8000.
Or, he could multiply the numbers first, so 23*395 to get a product of 9085, which would then round to 9000, or depends on what place value it would want to be rounded to.

A bicycle tire has a radius of 11 inches. To the nearest inch, how far does the tire travel when it makes 7 revolutions?

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

d = 483.56 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Radius of a bicycle tire is 11 inches. It is required to find the distance traveled by the distance covered by the tire when it makes 7 revolutions. One revolution means the circumference of circle. So,

$C=2\pi r\\\\C=2\times 3.14\times 11\\\\C=69.08\ \text{inches}$

In 7 revolution, it will cover a distance of 7C i.e.

$C=69.08\times 7\\\\C=483.56\ \text{inches}$

So, the tire will cover a distance of 483.56 inches in 7 revolutions

If f(1) = 10 and f(n) = f(n = 1) – 4 then find the value of f(5).

svetoff [14.1K]

Given:

$f(1)=10$ and $f(n)=f(n-1)-4$ .

To find:

The value of f(5).

Solution:

We have,

$f(n)=f(n-1)-4$

For $n=2$ ,

$f(2)=f(2-1)-4$

$f(2)=f(1)-4$

$f(2)=10-4$

$f(2)=6$

For $n=3$ ,

$f(3)=f(3-1)-4$

$f(3)=f(2)-4$

$f(3)=6-4$

$f(3)=2$

For $n=4$ ,

$f(4)=f(4-1)-4$

$f(4)=f(3)-4$

$f(4)=2-4$

$f(4)=-2$

For $n=5$ ,

$f(5)=f(5-1)-4$

$f(5)=f(4)-4$

$f(5)=-2-4$

$f(5)=-6$

Therefore, the value of $f(5)$ is $-6$ .

The graph of the derivative of a function f crosses the x-axis 3 times. What does this tell you about the graph of f ?

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

D. The function f has 3 horizontal tangent lines

Step-by-step explanation:

Well whenever any function crosses the x-axis, it means that the y-value is equal to zero.

In this case when the derivative passes the x-axis it indicates the tangent line corresponding to that x-value has a slope of zero, which when plotted is a horizontal line.

This means that the graph f has 3 horizontal tangent lines.
