A. Evaluate the polynomial

Mathematics
1 answer:
sdas [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a) y = x³− 5x² + 6x + 0.55 at x = 1.37.

Use 3-digit arithmetic with chopping. Evaluate the percent relative round-off error.

-1.183%

b. Express y as y = ((x − 5)x + 6)x + 0.55 (this is the same equation). Use again 3-digit arithmetic with chopping. Evaluate the percent relative round-off error and compare with part (a). Make the conclusion about which form of the polynomial is superior.

-0.161%

Comparing part a and b together, part b is more superior because the percent(%) error is smaller when compared to part a

Step-by-step explanation:

a) y = x³− 5x² + 6x + 0.55 at x = 1.37.

Use 3-digit arithmetic with chopping. Evaluate the percent relative round-off error.

Let's evaluate before applying the 3 digit arithmetic chopping rule

y = 1.37³ - 5 × 1.37² + 6 × 1.37 + 0.55

y = 1.956853

Let evaluate each components of the polynomial one by one

Note that: 3-digit arithmetic chopping means to approximate chop off or remove number after the 3 significant figures.

y = x³− 5x² + 6x + 0.55 at x = 1.37.

x³ = 1.37³ = 2.571353

≈ 2.57

x² = 1.37² = 1.8769

≈ 1.88

5x² = 1.87 × 5

= 9.35

x = 1.37

6x = 1.37 × 6

6x = 8.22

Evaluating the polynomial

y = 2.57 - 9.38 + 8.22 + 0.55

y = 1.98

The percent relative round-off error =

1.956853 - 1.98/1.956853 × 100

= -1.183%

b. Express y as y = ((x − 5)x + 6)x + 0.55 (this is the same equation). Use again 3-digit arithmetic with chopping. Evaluate the percent relative round-off error and compare with part (a). Make the conclusion about which form of the polynomial is superior.

y = ((x − 5)x + 6)x + 0.55

Evaluating with the 3 digit chop off rule is applied

= ((1.37 - 5)1.37 + 6)1.37 + 0.55

=( 1.8769 - 6.85) + 6) 1.37 + 0.55

= (- 4.9731 + 6 )1.37 + 0.55

= 1.0269 × 1.37 + 0.55

= 1.406853

= 1.956853.

≈ 1.96

Note in: evaluating before applying the 3 digit arithmetic chopping rule

y = 1.37³ - 5 × 1.37² + 6 × 1.37 + 0.55

y = 1.956853

The percent relative round-off error

1.956853 - 1.96/1.956853 × 100

= -0.161%

Comparing part a and b together, part b is more superior because the percent(%) error is smaller when compared to part a

Mike is pouring a two foot cement sidewalk around the perimeter of his swimming pool. His swimming pool measures 6 feet by 14 fe
frosja888 [35]
9 inches * 1 foot / 12 inches
= 3/4 feet deep

Area of the sidewalk: 
= the sides of the pool * the width of the sidewalk + the corners of the sidewalk (width * width)
= 2 sides * 6 (feet / side) * 2 feet + 2 sides * 14 (feet / side) * 2 feet + 4 corners * (2 feet * 2 feet / corner)
= 12 feet * 2 feet + 28 feet * 2 feet + 4 * 2 feet * 2 feet
= 24 feet^2 + 56 feet^2 + 16 feet^2
= 96 feet^2

Volume:
= 96 feet^2 * 3/4 feet
= (96 * 3 / 4) feet^3
= (19 * 3) feet^3
= 57 feet^3

Use the slope formula to find the slope between the given two points.<br> (2, 1) and (8, 9)
Elanso [62]

Answer:

slope = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

slope formula: (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

(1-2) divided by (9-8) = -1/1 = -1

slope = -1

you can switch it up by doing (9-8) divided by (1-2), but it won't make a difference I think.

As of october 28th chris has only paid $50 of the $180 senior dues which is due by december 20th chris had to quit his job becau
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe that the best advice in this scenario would be to fully pay off the senior dues and with the $48.56 that is left pay back as many lost books as possible. This would leave you owing $6.44 for lost books which you can ask Chris can ask his parents or work a small side gig to earn that money. The more important payment to make is the senior dues which have an actual due date unlike the lost books and can actually cause you trouble if not paid on time.
