Estimate square root of 90 to the nearest hundredths place

The method for doing this will depend on the required accuracy of your estimate.

Using linear approximation between 9^2 = 81 and 10^2 = 100, the estimate is
.. 9 +(90-81)/(100-81) = 9 +9/19 ≈ 9.47

Using one round of "Babylonian Method" on the above estimate,
.. (9.47 +90/9.47)/2 ≈ 9.486 ≈ 9.49 . . . . . . actually accurate to the hundredths place

Using derivatives and linear approximation,
.. √90 ≈ √81 +1/(2√81)*(90-81) = 9.50
or
.. √90 ≈ √100 +1/(2√100)*(90 -100) = 9.50

Assume no calculators, no paper, no pen, all in the head.

90=9*10, so 9.5 is a good approximation.
in fact, 9.5=9*10+0.562=90.25
We will use this initial estimate x0=9.5 to improve to accurate to the hundredth (and more).

Newton's method gives a better estimate by the following formula (all done in the head)
x1=x0-(x0^2-90)/(2*x0)
=9.5-(90.25-90)/(2*9.5)
=9.5-0.25/19
=9.5-0.013125   [in the head, 0.25/19=0.25/20+5%=0.125+0.0625=0.013125]
=9.486875
=9.49  (to the hundredth)

Exact value = 9.48683298...

List the members of P(fa, b, c, d}). Which are proper subsets of fa, b,c, d)?
ankoles [38]

Answer: As i understand, the set is P = {a,b,c,d}

then all the proper subsets are all the sets that belongs to P, that are different of P. Then A is a subset of P if all the elements of A belongs to P, but A is not equal to P

this is:

the sets of one element : {a}, {b}, {c}, {d} and the null set; ∅

sets of two elements: {a,b} , {a,c} , {a.d}, {b,c}, {b,d}, {c,d}

sets of three elements : {a,b,c}, {a,b,d}, {a,c,d}, {b,c,d}

and there arent sets of 4 elements or more.

X 6.4.5-T
butalik [34]

Same strategy as before: transform <em>X</em> ∼ Normal(76.0, 12.5) to <em>Z</em> ∼ Normal(0, 1) via

<em>Z</em> = (<em>X</em> - <em>µ</em>) / <em>σ</em>   ↔ <em>X</em> = <em>µ</em> + <em>σ</em> <em>Z</em>

where <em>µ</em> is the mean and <em>σ</em> is the standard deviation of <em>X</em>.

P(<em>X</em> < 79) = P((<em>X</em> - 76.0) / 12.5 < (79 - 76.0) / 12.5)

… = P(<em>Z</em> < 0.24)

… ≈ 0.5948
