Answer:

a. 1.0833

Absolute Error = 0.416667

Relative Error = 1.250002

b. 0.0011070

Absolute Error = 0.0011070

Relative Error = 0.003321

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1/3 = 0.333333

3/4 = 0.75

100/301 = 0.332226

a.

1/3 + 3/4

= 0.333333 + 0.75

= 1.083333

= 1.0833 ------ Approximated to 5 significant digits

Absolute Error = |Real Value - Estimated Value|

Relative Error = Absolute Error/Real Value

Assume 1/3 to be the real value and 3/4 to be the estimated value

Absolute Error = |0.333333 - 0.75|

Absolute Error = |-0.416667|

Absolute Error = 0.416667

Relative Error = 0.416667/0.333333

Relative Error = 1.250002

b.

1/3 - 100/301

= 0.333333 - 0.332226

= 0.001107

= 0.0011070 ----- Approximated to 5 significant digits

Assume 1/3 to be real value and 100/301 to be estimated value

Absolute Error = 0.333333 - 0.332226

Absolute Error = 0.0011070

Relative Error = 0.0011070/0.333333

Relative Error = 0.003321

Absolute and relative errors are approximation errors and they are due to the discrepancy between an exact value and some approximation to them.

The absolute error is the magnitude of the difference between the exact value and the approximation. The relative error is the absolute error divided by the magnitude of the exact value

You go to the doctor and he injects you with 13 milligrams of radioactive dye. After 12 minutes, 4.75 milligrams of dye remain i
photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the model for this situation using the points given. If you are given 13 mg immediately, the coordinate point for that is (0, 13), where the x coordinate is the time in minutes and the y coordinate is the amount of dye in mg.

If after 12 minutes, 4.75 mg remain, the coordinate point for that is (12, 4.75). Just so you know, the time unit always goes in for x, never for y.

Now that we have these coordinates we are going to use them as a system and find the model. Begin with the point (0, 13) in

A=a(b)^t where A is the amount left in the body, a is the initial amount injected, b is the rate at which it decays, and t is the time in minutes. Plug in the first set of coordinates:

13=a(b)^0 and since anything raised to the power of 0 is equal to 1, we have

13 = a. Now we can use that and write another equation with the other set of coordinates to solve for b:

4.75=13(b)^{12} and divide both sides by 13 (don't round anything yet) to get

.3653846154 = b¹². Now take the 12th root of both sides (you need a scientific calculator for this) to get that

b = .9195228407  Yikes.

Now for the model, using the fact that a = 13 and b = .9195228407:

A=13(.9195228407)^t  

We are told that the amount that we are allowed to leave with still remaining in our system cannot be more than 2 mg, so we sub in a 2 for A:

2=13(.9195228407)^t and begin by dividing away 13 to get

.1538461538=.9195228407^t  Take the natural log of both sides, which allows us to bring the t out front:

ln(.1538461538) = t ln(.9195228407) and finally divide by ln(.9195228407) to get

t = 22.3 minutes

Line AB passes through points A(−6, 6) and B(12, 3). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, the
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

We get value of the value of b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Line AB passes through points A(−6, 6) and B(12, 3). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, then m=m equals negative StartFraction 1 Over 6 EndFraction.. What is the value of b?

We have slope m: m=-\frac{1}{6}

We need to find value of b (y-intercept)

Using the point A(-6,6) and slope m=-\frac{1}{6} we can find b.

Using slope-intercept form, putting values of m and x and y we get the value of b:

y=mx+b\\6=-\frac{1}{6}(-6)+b\\6=1+b\\b=6-1\\b=5

So, we get value of the value of b = 5

A bat and a ball cost one dollar and ten cents in total. The bat costs a dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?
Aleks04 [339]
Set up an algebraic equation: b=cost of ball
1.10=1+b+b
1.10=1+2b
subtract 1 from both sides
.10=2b
divide by 2 on both sides
ball=5 cents
