Hello,

f(x)-f(a)= -3x²-5x+1-(-3a²-5a+1)=-3(x²-a²)-5(x-a)=-3(x-a)(x+a)-5(x-a)
=-(x-a)(3(x+a)+5)
=-(x-a)(3x+3a+5)

lim (f(x)-f(a))/(x-a)=- lim (3x+3a+5)=3a+3a+5=-6a-5
if a=1==>-6*1-5=-11

Otherwise
f'(x)=-6x-5
f'(1)=-6-5=-11

The radius of the cone is 1.75 inches, and its height is 3.5 inches. If the diameter of the bubble gum ball is 0.5 inches, what
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

=11.155 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Radius= 1.75 inches

Height = 3.5 inches

Diameter= 0.5 inches

To find the volume of a cone we will apply the formula:

Volume of a cone = 1/3 πr²h

Substitute the values:

V= 1/3* 3.14 *(1.75)² * 3.5

V=1/3 *3.14*(3.0625)* 3.5

V= 33.66/3

V=11.22 in³

Now find the volume of the bubble gum:

Volume of bubble gum = 4/3 π*r³

Substitute the values:

V= 4/3*3.14*(0.5/2)³

V=4/3*3.14(0.25)³

V=4/3*3.14(0.015625)

V=0.19625/3

V=0.0654 in³

Now subtract the volume of bubble gum ball from the volume of a cone

=11.22 - 0.0654

=11.155 in³

Thus the closest approximation of the volume of the cone that can be filled with flavored ice is 11.155 in³....
