Answer:

$\sqrt{34}$ or 5.83095

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula $\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1} )^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1} )^2 }$

Make sure to round the answer appropriately if not asked for in square root form!!

Find lim h->0 f(9+h)-f(9)/h if f(x)=x^4 a. 23 b. -2916 c. 2916 d. 2925

Svetach [21]

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(9+h)-f(9)}h = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{(9+h)^4-9^4}h$

Carry out the binomial expansion in the numerator:

$(9+h)^4 = 9^4+4\times9^3h+6\times9^2h^2+4\times9h^3+h^4$

Then the 9⁴ terms cancel each other, so in the limit we have

$\displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}\frac{4\times9^3h+6\times9^2h^2+4\times9h^3+h^4}h$

Since h is approaching 0, that means h ≠ 0, so we can cancel the common factor of h in both numerator and denominator:

$\displaystyle \lim_{h\to0}(4\times9^3+6\times9^2h+4\times9h^2+h^3)$

Then when h converges to 0, each remaining term containing h goes to 0, leaving you with

$\displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(9+h)-f(9)}h = 4\times9^3 = \boxed{2916}$

or choice C.

Alternatively, you can recognize the given limit as the derivative of f(x) at x = 9:

$f'(x) = \displaystyle\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}h \implies f'(9) = \lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(9+h)-f(9)}h$

We have f(x) = x ⁴, so f '(x) = 4x ³, and evaluating this at x = 9 gives the same result, 2916.

write the possible range of the measurement 214 ounces +1.2% round to the nearest hundredth if necessary

boyakko [2]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

[211.43,216.57]

Step-by-step explanation:

1.2% of 214 is ...

0.012 × 214 = 2.568 ≈ 2.57 . . . . rounded to hundredths

Then the minimum possible value is ...

214 -2.57 = 211.43

and the maximum possible value is ...

214 +2.57 = 216.57

The range is 211.43 to 216.57.

A laboratory scale is known to have a standard deviation (sigma) or 0.001 g in repeated weighings. Scale readings in repeated we

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

99% confidence interval for the given specimen is [3.4125 , 3.4155].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a laboratory scale is known to have a standard deviation (sigma) or 0.001 g in repeated weighing. Scale readings in repeated weighing are Normally distributed with mean equal to the true weight of the specimen.

Three weighing of a specimen on this scale give 3.412, 3.416, and 3.414 g.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 99% confidence interval for the true mean specimen is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean weighing of specimen = $\frac{3.412+3.416+3.414}{3}$ = 3.414 g

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = 0.001 g

n = sample of specimen = 3

$\mu$ = population mean

Here for constructing 99% confidence interval we have used z statistics because we know about population standard deviation (sigma).

So, 99% confidence interval for the population mean, $\mu$ is ;

P(-2.5758 < N(0,1) < 2.5758) = 0.99 {As the critical value of z at 0.5% level

of significance are -2.5758 & 2.5758}

P(-2.5758 < $\frac{\bar X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < 2.5758) = 0.99

P( $-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < ${\bar X - \mu}$ < $2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

P( $\bar X-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ < $\mu$ < $\bar X+2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ) = 0.99

99% confidence interval for $\mu$ = [ $\bar X-2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ , $\bar X+2.5758 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ]

= [ $3.414-2.5758 \times {\frac{0.001}{\sqrt{3} } }$ , $3.414+2.5758 \times {\frac{0.001}{\sqrt{3} } }$ ]

= [3.4125 , 3.4155]

Therefore, 99% confidence interval for this specimen is [3.4125 , 3.4155].

Write and solve an inequality to find the values of x for which the perimeter of the rectangle is less than 120.

RSB [31]

Answer:

Inequality : 4x+8 < 120

x<28

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Perimeter of a rectangle (P)= 2 length +2 width

Where:

Width = x

Length = x+4

Replacing with the values given

P = 2 (x+4) + 2x

P = 2x+8+2x

P=4x+8

Since the perimeter of the rectangle must be less than 120:

4x+8 < 120

Solving for x

4x<120-8

4x<112

x<112/4

x<28

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
