Carry out three steps of the Bisection Method for f(x)=3x−x4 as follows: (a) Show that f(x) has a zero in [1,2]. (b) Determine w

hich subinterval, [1,1.5] or [1.5,2], contains a zero. (c) Determine which interval, [1,1.25], [1.25,1.5], [1.5,1.75], or [1.75,2], contains a zero.

Answer:

a) There's a zero between [1,2]

b) There's a zero between [1.5,2]

c) There's a zero between  [1.5,1.75].

Step-by-step explanation:

We have f(x)=3^x-x^4

A)We need to show that f(x) has a zero in the interval [1, 2]. We have to see if the function f is continuous with f(1) and f(2).

f(x)=3^x-x^4\\\\f(1)=3^1-(1)^4=3-1=2\\\\f(2)=3^2-(2)^4=9-16=(-7)

We can see that f(1) and f(2) have opposite signs. And f(1)>f(2) and the function is continuous, this means that exists a real number c between the interval [1,2] where f(c)=0.

B)We have to repeat the same steps of A)

For the subinterval [1,1.5]:

f(x)=3^x-x^4\\\\f(1)=3^1-(1)^4=3-1=2\\\\f(1.5)=3^1^.^5-(1.5)^4=5.19-5.06=0.13

f(1) and f(1.5) have the same signs, this means there's no zero in the subinterval [1,1.5].

For the subinterval [1.5,2]:

f(x)=3^x-x^4\\\\f(1.5)=3^1^.^5-(1.5)^4=5.19-5.06=0.13\\\\f(2)=3^2-(2)^4=9-16=(-7)

f(1.5) and f(2) have opposite signs, this means there's a zero between the subinterval [1.5,2].

C)We have to repeat the same steps of A)

For the subinterval [1,1.25]:

f(x)=3^x-x^4\\\\f(1)=3^1-(1)^4=3-1=2\\\\f(1.25)=3^1^.^2^5-(1.25)^4=3.94-2.44=1.5

f(1) and f(1.25) have the same signs, this means there's no zero in the subinterval [1,1.25].

For the subinterval [1.25,1.5]:

f(x)=3^x-x^4\\\\f(1.25)=3^1^.^2^5-(1.25)^4=3.94-2.44=1.5\\\\f(1.5)=3^1^.^5-(1.5)^4=5.19-5.06=0.13

f(1.25) and f(1.5) have the same signs, this means there's no zero in the subinterval [1.25,1.5].

For the subinterval [1.5,1.75]:

f(x)=3^x-x^4\\\\f(1.5)=3^1^.^5-(1.5)^4=5.19-5.06=0.13\\\\f(1.75)=3^1^.^7^5-(1.75)^4=6.83-9.37=(-2.54)

f(1.5) and f(1.75) have opposite signs, this means there's a zero between the subinterval [1.5,1.75].

For the subinterval [1.75,2]:

f(x)=3^x-x^4\\\\f(1.75)=3^1^.^7^5-(1.75)^4=6.83-9.37=(-2.54)\\\\f(2)=3^2-(2)^4=9-16=(-7)

f(1.75) and f(2) have the same signs, this means there isn't a zero between the subinterval [1.75,2].

The graph of the function shows that the answers are correct.

The cost of renting an apartment can be modeled by the function C(m)=900m+1400, where C(m) is the cost in dollars for m months o
Ahat [919]

Answer:

On the context of the problem, the slope means the total paid for every month that the apartment is rented, 900 per month in this case, while the y-intercept means the initial cost for renting the apartment, 1400 upfront in this case.

Step-by-step explanation:

This function is linear, which means that it increases at a steady rate and has the following form:

y(x) = a*x + b

Where "a" is the slope or the rate at which "y" changes for every change in "x". While "b" is the number at which the function crosses the "y" axis.

On the context of the problem, the slope means the total paid for every month that the apartment is rented, 900 per month in this case, while the y-intercept means the initial cost for renting the apartment, 1400 upfront in this case.
