Answer:

There are 200 students in the seventh grade.

Step-by-step explanation:

For equations like these, you have to use the is/of formula, which is:

Percent/100 = is/of.

Since you are trying to find how many students are in the seventh grade, this means that 52 <u><em>is</em></u> 26% of the total amount of students in the seventh grade. So, the formula would look like so:

26/100 = 52/n.

Next, you have to cross multiply, which means you would multiply 26 by n, and 52 by 100.

Then, you are going to have this left over from the cross multiplying:

5200 = 26n.

Divide 26 on both sides, leaving you with:

1n = 200, or n = 200.

Use the equation below to find y, if m=4, x = 3, and b=11

Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

y = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the equation not below is y = mx + b form...

m = 4

x = 3

b = 11

y = 4(3) + 11

y = 12+ 11

y = 23

Because of their connection with secant lines, tangents, and instantaneous rates, limits of the form ModifyingBelow lim With h

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f(x) = \sqrt{x} = x^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$f(x+h) = \sqrt{x+h} = (x+h)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

We use binomial expansion for $(x+h)^{\frac{1}{2}}$

This can be rewritten as

$[x(1+\dfrac{h}{x})]^{\frac{1}{2}}$

$x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}$

From the expansion

$(1+x)^n=1+nx+\dfrac{n(n-1)}{2!}+\ldots$

Setting $x=\dfrac{h}{x}$ and $n=\frac{1}{2}$ ,

$(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}=1+(\dfrac{h}{x})(\dfrac{1}{2})+\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}(1-\frac{1}{2})}{2!}(\dfrac{h}{x})^2+\tldots$

$=1+\dfrac{h}{2x}-\dfrac{h^2}{8x^2}+\ldots$

Multiplying by $x^{\frac{1}{2}}$ ,

$x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}=x^{\frac{1}{2}}+\dfrac{h}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}-\dfrac{h^2}{8x^{\frac{3}{2}}}+\ldots$

$x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}-x^{\frac{1}{2}}=\dfrac{h}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}-\dfrac{h^2}{8x^{\frac{3}{2}}}+\ldots$

$\dfrac{x^{\frac{1}{2}}(1+\dfrac{h}{x})^{\frac{1}{2}}-x^{\frac{1}{2}}}{h}=\dfrac{1}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}-\dfrac{h}{8x^{\frac{3}{2}}}+\ldots$

The limit of this as $h\to 0$ is

$\lim_{h\to0} \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{1}{2x^{\frac{1}{2}}}=\dfrac{1}{2\sqrt{x}}$ (since all the other terms involve $h$ and vanish to 0.)
