Answer:

By solving the exponent as if it were positive, then taking the inverse of the number.

For Example:

$3^{-2} = 9^{-1} = 1/9\\\\2^{-3} = 8^{-1} = 1/8$

$x^{-4} = \frac{1}{x^{4}}$

Inscribe a circle in a unit square and to r= 1000 random.

Oduvanchick [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

area of square = 1

area of a circle in square = $\pi r^2 = \pi *(1/2)^2 = \frac{\pi }{4}$

bu estimate $p^ = X/n = 760/1000 = 0.76Therefore, 
[tex]\frac{\pi }{4} \approx 0.76$

$\pi \approx 0.76*4 =3.04$

b) if n tend to infinity

$\pi will approach 3.14$

Over what interval will the immediate value theorem apply

koban [17]

Answer:

Any [a,b] that does NOT include the x-value 3 in it.

Either an [a,b] entirely to the left of 3, or

an [a,b] entirely to the right of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The intermediate value theorem requires for the function for which the intermediate value is calculated, to be continuous in a closed interval [a,b]. Therefore, for the graph of the function shown in your problem, the intermediate value theorem will apply as long as the interval [a,b] does NOT contain "3", which is the x-value where the function shows a discontinuity.

Then any [a,b] entirely to the left of 3 (that is any [a,b] where b < 3; or on the other hand any [a,b] completely to the right of 3 (that is any [a,b} where a > 3, will be fine for the intermediate value theorem to apply.
