Answer:

  m = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

For f(x) = 2x² you want to find the slope m using ...

  m = (f(x+h) -f(x))/h

at x=3.

Filling in the function definition and its arguments, we have ...

  m = (2(x+h)² -2x²)/h = (2x² +4hx +2h² -2x²)/h = 4x +2h

The value of this as h goes to zero is ...

  m = 4x

At x=3, the slope is ...

  m = 4·3 = 12

_____

The attached graph shows a numerical estimate of the slope (f'(3)=12) and the line with that slope through the point P(3, 18). The line certainly appears to be tangent to the curve at that point.

Anika [276]

Answer:

About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Quality control studies for Speedy Jet Computer Printers show the lifetime of the printer follows a normal distribution with

mean \mu = 4 and standard deviation  \sigma = 0.78

If the company wishes to replace no more than 10% of the printers.

To find : How long should Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed ?

Solution :

Using Z- table,  

Z value corresponding to 10% or 0.10 = -1.28.

Applying z-score formula,

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of x is given by,

x=(z\times \sigma)+\mu

Substitute the values,

x=(-1.28\times 0.78)+4

x=-0.9984+4

x=3.0016

So, approx 3 years.

Therefore, About 3 years Speedy Jet printers be guaranteed.

William has 24 24 cans of fruit and 60 60 cans of vegetables that he will be putting into bags for a food drive. He wants each b
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

William will make 12 bags of food and each of the bag will contains 2 cans of fruit and 5 cans of vegetables.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of fruits cans = 24

Number of veggies cans = 60

William will have to distribute them in equal bags with equal cans of fruits and vegetables respectively.

For this:

We have to find the GCF (greatest common factor) of 24 and 60.

GCF by listing out the factors method.

Factors of 24  : 1,2,3,4,6,8,12,24

Factors of 60 : 1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,60

So,

The greatest common factor of 24 and 60 is 12.

The number of bags William will used for equal distribution = 12

Now,

We have to distribute the veggies and fruits in equal number of cans to these 12bags.

Number of fruits cans used in each bag = \frac{24}{12} = 2

Number of vegetables can used in each bag = \frac{60}{12} =5

We can say that:

William will make 12 bags of food and each of the bag will contains 2 cans of fruit and 5 cans of vegetables.
