The side length of a square ice cube is claimed to be 1.0 inches, correct to within 0.001 inch. Use linear approximation to esti

Olenka [21]

Answer:

0.012

Step-by-step explanation:

Linear approximation says that,

$f(x) \approx f(x_o)+f'(x_o)(x-x_o)$

For a cube the surface area is $6x^2$ .

So the side is 1.0 inch in, the surface area is $=6\times1^2 = 6$ square inches.

In Linear approximation means you ignore the term $x_o^2$ , if $x_o$ is a small number, because then $x_o^2$ will be a very smalle number and that does not contribute much to the error.

So the surface area is approximately,

$6x^2=6x_o^2+12x_o(x-x_o)$

So here, $x=1.001, x_o=0.001$

The error in the area is approximately,

$12 \times 0.001=0.012$

So the error is 0.012.

What is the greatest<br> common factor (GCF) of 16<br> and 21

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by prime factorizing (finding the prime factors) of 16 and 21:

$16=4*4=2*2*2*2=2^4$

$21=3*7$

We can see that they DO NOT have any common factors, meaning that their greatest common factor is 1.
