Answer:
0.012
Step-by-step explanation:
Linear approximation says that,

For a cube the surface area is
.
So the side is 1.0 inch in, the surface area is
square inches.
In Linear approximation means you ignore the term
, if
is a small number, because then
will be a very smalle number and that does not contribute much to the error.
So the surface area is approximately,

So here, 
The error in the area is approximately,

So the error is 0.012.

Answer
Find out the what is the percentage of this discount .
To prove
Formula
Discount = Marked price - selling price
As given
a jar of natural peanut butter normally costs $4.00 .
it's on sale for $3.60 .
thus
Marked price = $4.00
selling price = $3.60
put in the above formula
Discount = 4.00 - 3.60
= 0.4
Formula
put the value
Discount percentage = 10%
Option (a) is correct .
Hence proved
The correct answer is 3/8
Rewriting our equation with parts separated

To find the sales price of the DVD, you would multiply the price and sale percent to get the sale price.
You would need to turn 20% into a decimal to multiply it with 9, so you would move the decimal place two times to the left: From 20. to→ .20
In this case: 9 × .20 = 1.8
Then you would subract the sub price by the sales price
9 - 1.8 = 7.2
The sales price of the DVD would be $7.20
X = y + 3
2x + y = 9
Solution..
---------------
Substitute for x=y+3 in the second equation...
2x+y = 9
2(y+3)+y=9
2y+6+y=9
3y+6=9
3y=9-6
3y=3
y=3/3
y=1....
Substitute for y=1 in the first equation...
x=y+3
x = 1+3
x=4..
Am sure the answer is quite evident now...
