Alina [70]3 years ago

Part (a)

Replace every 'a' with 5.2 and replace every 'b' with 4.7

Then use your calculator to evaluate.

3a + b^3 = 3*5.2 + (4.7)^3 = 119.423

<h3>Answer: 119.423</h3>

===============================================

Part (b)

The true value is 119.423 which is the result of part (a)

The estimated value is 140

Subtract the two values

140-119.423 = 20.577

and divide that over the true value

20.577/140 = 0.14697857142858

Which, when rounded to 4 decimal places, we get 0.1470

Move the decimal place over to the right 2 spots to get 14.70%

<h3>Answer: 14.70% error (approximate)</h3>

A grasshopper jumps from the ground. The path of the grasshopper is modeled by the equation y=−0.5x2+8x where x is the horizonta
Marysya12 [62]
Please use " ^ " to indicate exponentiation:  <span>y=−0.5x^2+8x 

Examining this function, we see that its graph is a vertical parabola opening down.

You did not supply instructions for this problem.
However, one could guess that you might want to find the highest point of the grasshopper's path.  To do this, find the vertex:  Find the x value defined by 

x = -b/(2a).  Here, a= -0.5 and b= 8.  Thus, the vertex is at x = -8/(2[-0.5]), or 

x -8/(-1) = 8 units.  The corresponding y value is then 

y =  </span><span>−0.5*8^2+8(8)  = -0.5(64) + 64, or 32 units.</span>

The perimeter of a rectangle is 208 inches. The ratio
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

65 in and 39 in respectively

Step-by-step explanation:

Let r be the common ratio; when we multiply both L and R by this common ratio, we'll get the actual length and actual width of the rectangle,  Recalling that the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is P = 2L + 2R, we get:

2(5r) + 2(3r) = 16r = 208 in

Then r = 208/16 = 13

Thus, the actual length is 5(13 in) and the actual width is 3(13 in.),

or 65 in and 39 in respectively.

As a check, calculate 65 in / 39 in; this comes out to 5:3, as required.

Then

Can anyone please teach me how to do this

Answer:

I will not give in answer but will give an example

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of irregular shapes can be determined by dividing the given shape into smaller regular shapes. The area of irregular shapes can be determined by dividing the given shape into smaller regular shapes.

In real life figures are often irregular shapes - a little bit messy. Think of your messy bedroom once more ‐ is it a perfect rectangle?

The trick is to break these figures into shapes that you know well and whose area you know how to find.

1. Find the area of this room:

3- 2 -4 -6 irregular shape

This can be done in two different ways but ill only give one example on how to find an area.

Method #1

Divide the figure into two rectangles and find all missing lengths.

The larger rectangle has an area of

4cm x 7cm = 28cm2

The smaller rectangle has an area of

4cm x 2cm = 8cm2

If we combine these we will find the total area:

28cm2 x 8cm2 = 36cm2

hope this helps :)
