You measure the width of a doorway and find that it is 1.20 m wide. Find the greatest possible error of your measurement

1 answer:

8 0

Given that the distance between two lines in the measurement instrument is 0.01m, the maximum error should be 0.01m/2 = 0.005 m.

If you do a good work, the real measure is 1.20m +/- 0.005m, this is between 1.195 and 1.205.

Let f(x)=−12(x+2)2+5 . What is the average rate of change for the quadratic function from x=−3 to x = 1?

aev [14]

Answer:

Average rate of change = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change over the interval (a,b) is given by;

[ f(b) - f(a)] / (b-a)........................where interval is (a,b)

(a,b) interval =(-3,1)

Where;

f(x)= -12 (x+2)² +5

$f(a)=f(-3)=-12(-3+2)^2+5\\f(a)=f(-3)=-12(-1)^2+5\\f(a)=f(-3)=-12(1)+5\\=-12+5=-7\\\\\\f(b)=f(1)=-12(1+2)+5\\f(b)=f(1)=-12(3)+5\\=-36+5=-31\\\\f(b)-f(a)=-31--7=-24\\\\b-a=1--3=4\\\\f(b)-f(a)/b-a=\frac{-24}{4} =-6$
