In this big ol' word problem, this is just an instance of basic multiplication/division.

If it takes it 1 hour for 3 meters...

12 ÷ 3 = 4.

It would take 4 hours for the water level to change to 12 meters.

You stand a known distance from the base of the tree, measure the angle of elevation the top of the tree to be 15â—¦ , and then

gogolik [260]

Answer:

The maximum possible error of in measurement of the angle is $d\theta_1 =(14.36p)^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The angle of elevation is $\theta_1 = 15 ^o = \frac{\pi}{12}$

The height of the tree is h

The distance from the base is D

h is mathematically represented as

$h = D tan \theta$ Note : this evaluated using SOHCAHTOA i,e

$tan\theta = \frac{h}{D}$

Generally for small angles the series approximation of $tan \theta \ is$

$tan \theta = \theta + \frac{\theta ^3 }{3}$

So given that $\theta = 15 \ which \ is \ small$

$h = D (\theta + \frac{\theta^3}{3} )$

$dh = D (1 + \theta^2) d\theta$

=> $\frac{dh}{h} = \frac{1 + \theta ^2}{\theta + \frac{\theta^3}{3} } d \theta$

Now from the question the relative error of height should be at most

$\pm p$ %

=> $\frac{dh}{h} = \pm p$

=> $\frac{1 + \theta ^2}{\theta + \frac{\theta^3}{3} } d \theta = \pm p$

=> $d\theta = \pm \frac{\theta + \frac{\theta^3}{3} }{1+ \theta ^2} * \ p$

So for $\theta_1$

$d\theta_1 = \pm \frac{\theta_1 + \frac{\theta^3_1 }{3} }{1+ \theta_1 ^2} * \ p$

substituting values

$d [\frac{\pi}{12} ] = \pm \frac{[\frac{\pi}{12} ] + \frac{[\frac{\pi}{12} ]^3 }{3} }{1+ [\frac{\pi}{12} ] ^2} * \ p$

=> $d\theta_1 = 0.25 p$

Converting to degree

$d\theta_1 = (0.25* 57.29) p$

$d\theta_1 =(14.36p)^o$

Choose the model that represents the function

kirill [66]

Answer:

OPTION D

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to determine which option determines the function given above.

To determine the function, just substitute the values and compare LHS and RHS.

we have $f(4) = 18$

$f(-2) = -12$

$f(0) = -2$

$f(-3) = -17$

Here, $x$ is the domain and $f(x)$ is the co-doamin.

Therefore, $x = \{4, -2, 0, -3\}$

Now, OPTION A: $f(x) = 2x - 5$

Substitute x = 4. We get f(x) = 3 $\ne$ 18.

So, OPTION A is rejected.

Similarly, OPTION B: $f(x) = 5x + 2$

Substitute x = 4. We get f(4) = 22 $\ne$ 18.

It is rejected as well.

Now, for OPTION C: $f(x) = \frac{x}{2} - 5$

Substitute x = 4. We get f(4) = -3 $\ne$ 18.

So, OPTION C is also rejected.

OPTION D: $f(x) = 5x - 2$

Substitute x = 4. We get f(4) = 18.

Substitute the remaining points in domain as well. We notice that it exactly matches the given function. So, OPTION D is the answer.
