Answer:

  15.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the difference between the values of x that make y=0. Solving for those values, we get ...

  0 = -0.1(x -1)^2 +6

  0 = (x -1)^2 -60 . . . . . . . . . multiply by -10

  60 = (x -1)^2 . . . . . . . . . . . add 60

  ±√60 = x -1 . . . . . . . . . . . . take the square root

At this point, it should be obvious that the difference between the two solutions will be 2√60 = 4√15. If it is not, we can find the two solutions and take their difference:

  x1 = 1 +√60

  x2 = 1 -√60

Then the difference is ...

  x1 -x2 = (1 +√60) -(1 -√60) = 2√60

60 has a square factor (4), so we can simplify this radical to ...

  x1 -x2 = 4√15 ≈ 15.4919 ≈ 15.5

Given f (x) = x2 + 4x + 5, what is f of the quantity 2 plus h end quantity minus f of 2 all over h equal to?
meriva

By evaluating the quadratic function, we will see that the differential quotient is:

\frac{f(2 + h) - f(2)}{h} = 8 + h

<h3>How to get (f(2 + h) - f(2))/h?</h3>

Here we have the quadratic function:

f(x) = x^2 + 4x + 5

Evaluating the quadratic equation we get:

\frac{f(2 + h) - f(2)}{h}

So we need to replace the x-variable by "2 + h" and "2" respectively.

Replacing the function in the differential quotient:

\frac{(2 + h)^2 + 4*(2 + h) + 5 - (2)^2 - 4*2 - 5}{h} \\\\\frac{4 + 2*2h + h^2 + 8 + 4h  - 4 - 8 }{h} \\\\\frac{ 2*2h + h^2  + 4h   }{h} = \frac{8h + h^2}{h}

If we simplify that last fraction, we get:

\frac{8h + h^2}{h} = 8 + h

The third option is the correct one, the differential quotient is equal to 8 + 4.

Doug estimates that his soccer team will win 7 games this year. The team actually wins 10 games. What is the percent error of Do
baherus [9]

Answer: 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Percent error = \dfrac{|\text{Estimated value - Actual value}|}{\text{Actual value}}\times100\%

Estimated number of games win this year = 7

Actual number of games won = 10

Now ,   the percent error of Doug’s estimate = \dfrac{|7-10|}{10}\times100\%= \dfrac{3}{1}\times10\%=30\%

Hence, the percent error of Doug’s estimate = 30%
