Answer:

f\left( {2.1} \right) \approx 5.22360.

Step-by-step explanation:

The linear approximation is given by the equation

                            {f\left( x \right) \approx L\left( x \right) }={ f\left( a \right) + f^\prime\left( a \right)\left( {x - a} \right).}

Linear approximation is a good way to approximate values of f(x) as long as you stay close to the point x= a, but the farther you get from x=a, the worse your approximation.

We know that,

a=2\\f(2) = 5\\f'(x) = \sqrt{3x-1}

Next, we need to plug in the known values and calculate the value of f(2.1):

{L\left( x \right) = f\left( 2 \right) + f^\prime\left( 2 \right)\left( {x - 2} \right) }=5+\sqrt{3(2)-1}(x-2) =5+\sqrt{5}(x-2)

Then

f\left( {2.1} \right) \approx 5+\sqrt{5}(2.1-2)\approx5.22360.

15 Points!!!!!!!!! Mike attends basketball practice sessions every week. The coach assesses his progress at the end of each sess
Naily [24]

Answer:

In the case of Mike's free throws, the Domain that describes this relationship can be either B or D.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the case of a relationship that represents a 'constant' increase or decrease, we know that there will be an independent and dependent variable.  The independent variable is our 'x' value and the dependent variable is our 'y' value.  In this case, they tell us that the number of free throws Mike misses is dependent on the number of practices sessions he has attended.  Therefor, 'x' would represent the number of practices and 'y' would represent the number of missed free throws. At the start, before practices or an 'x' value of 0, Mike, misses 6 free throws.  He continues to decrease his missed throws by for each practice, until the sixth practice where he misses none.  So, the 'x' values would be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.  This can be shown by letter 'B', which includes all numbers, or letter 'D', which represents all numbers between, and including 0 and 6.
