360/18=20 therefore the smallest degree of rotation would be 20

It will be easier to explain how to solve this question in a square. If you rotate 4-sided square from the centre, you need to rotate it 90 degrees. The formula for this would be: 360 ° /the side count. In a square, it would be 360° /4= 90°.

In 18-sided polygon, the calculation would be: 360°/ 18 side= 20°

Solve for x. This figure is a parallelogram
stich3 [128]

Answer:

x=9

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you don't have that much information, you have to assume line HE is congruent to line GF, so now you have an equation that looks like this:  23=x+14.  Now you subtract 14 from both sides giving you 9=x, and since you cannot simplify even further, that is your answer

In the derivation of Newton’s method, to determine the formula for xi+1, the function f(x) is approximated using a first-order T
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Part A.

Let f(x) = 0;

suppose x= a+h

such that f(x) =f(a+h) = 0

By second order Taylor approximation, we get

f(a) + hf'±(a) + \frac{h^{2} }{2!}f''(a) = 0

h = \frac{-f'(a) }{f''(a)} ± \frac{\sqrt[]{(f'(a))^{2}-2f(a)f''(a) } }{f''(a)}

So, we get the succeeding equation for Newton's method as

x_{i+1} = x_{i} + \frac{1}{f''x_{i}}  [-f'(x_{i}) ± \sqrt{f(x_{i})^{2}-2fx_{i}f''x_{i} } ]

Part B.

It is evident that Newton's method fails in two cases, as:

1.  if f''(x) = 0

2. if f'(x)² is less than 2f(x)f''(x)    

Part C.

In case  x_{i+1} is close to x_{i}, the choice that shouldbe made instead of ± in part A is:

f'(x) = \sqrt{f'(x)^{2} - 2f(x)f''(x)}  ⇔ x_{i+1} = x_{i}

Part D.

As given x_{i+1} = x_{i} = h

or                 h = x_{i+1} - x_{i}

We get,

f(a) + hf'(a) +(h²/2)f''(a) = 0

or h² = -hf(a)/f'(a)

Also,             (x_{i+1}-x_{i})² = -(x_{i+1}-x_{i})(f(x_{i})/f'(x_{i}))

So,                f(a) + hf'(a) - (f''(a)/2)(hf(a)/f'(a)) = 0

It becomes   h = -f(a)/f'(a) + (h/2)[f''(a)f(a)/(f(a))²]

Also,             x_{i+1} = x_{i} -f(x_{i})/f'(x_{i}) + [(x_{i+1} - x_{i})f''(x_{i})f(x_{i})]/[2(f'(x_{i}))²]

Find Mean, Median, mode and range. Round to the nearest tenth.
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

Mean =26.2

Median=27

Mode=32

Range=38

Step-by-step explanation:

From the stem and leaf plot, we obtain the original data as:

9,11,12,12,14,17,25,25,27,32,32,32,33,35,41,42,47

The median is middle observation of the array.

Thebefore the median is 27

The mode is the number that occurs most.

The mode is 32.

The range is the highest observation minus the least observation.

The range is 47-9=38

The mean is given by:

\bar x =  \frac{9 + 11 + 12 + 12 + 14 + 17 + 25 + 25 + 27 + 32 + 32 + 32 + 33 + 35 + 41 + 42 + 47}{17}

\bar x =  \frac{446}{17}  = 26.24
