Hello there, and thank you for posting your question here on brainly.

Lisa is 34 years old, two years ago, she was twice as old as her brother. How old is her brother now?

Answer in short: 18

Why?

Since it was 2 years ago, you subtract 34 by 2 to get 32. Then, since she is twice as old as her brother, we divide 32 by 2, that answer is 16. That is her brother's age when it was two years ago when she was 32. We have to add back the two years to find out how old he is today. 16 + 2 is 18. He is 18 today.

Hope this helped! ☺♥

Her brother would have been 16, which is half of 32 and now he would be 18 years old

Suppose that we don't have a formula for g ( x ) g(x) but we know that g ( 1 ) = − 1 g(1)=-1 and g ' ( x ) = √ x 2 + 15 g′(x)=x2

dezoksy [38]

Answer:

g(0.9) ≈ -2.6

g(1.1) ≈ 0.6

For 1.1 the estimation is a bit too high and for 0.9 it is too low.

Step-by-step explanation:

For values of x near 1 we can estimate g(x) with t(x) = g'(1) (x-1) + g(1). Note that g'(1) = 1²+15 = 16, and for values near one g'(x) is increasing because x² is increasing for positive values. This means that the tangent line t(x) will be above the graph of g, and the estimates we will make are a bit too big for values at the right of 1, like 1.1, and they will be too low for values at the left like 0.9.

For 0.9, we estimate

g(0.9) ≈ 16* (-0.1) -1 = -2.6

g(1.1) ≈ 16* 0.1 -1 = 0.6

If remove the zero from 0.76 would it change the value of the number

wariber [46]

Question 1:

<h3>Answer: The number does <u>not</u> change</h3>

Removing the zero from 0.76 leads to .76 which is the same as before. Both lead to $7.6 \times 10^{-1}$ in scientific notation.

Personally I prefer the zero up front to make the decimal point stand out easier. Of course it's just a preference, so its up to you to decide which you prefer.

===========================================

Question 2:

<h3>Answer: Yes the number changes</h3>

Taking the zero out of 10.25 leads to 1.25 which is definitely a different number (and smaller). Therefore, this zero is a significant digit compared to before.
