SO what you need to do is:
<span>Start with |f(x) - 3| < 0.4
and plug in f(x) = x+1
to get |f(x) – 3| < 0.4
|x+1 – 3| < 0.4
|x - 2| < 0.4
   -0.4 < x - 2 < 0.4
  -0.4+2 < x < 0.4+2
  1.6 < x < 2.4
So delta would be 2.3
Hope this is what you were looking for

The largest δ such that if 0 < |x – 2| < δ is 0.4

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Solving linear equation mean calculating the unknown variable from the equation.

Let the linear equation : y = mx + c

If we draw the above equation on Cartesian Coordinates , it will be a straight line with :

<em>m → gradient of the line</em>

<em>( 0 , c ) → y - intercept</em>

Gradient of the line could also be calculated from two arbitrary points on line ( x₁ , y₁ ) and ( x₂ , y₂ ) with the formula :

\large {m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

If point ( x₁ , y₁ ) is on the line with gradient m , the equation of the line will be :

y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1 )

Let us tackle the problem.

Given:

f(x) = x + 1

If |f(x) - 3| < 0.4 , then :

|f(x) - 3| < 0.4

|x + 1 - 3| < 0.4

|x -2| < 0.4

Since the absolute value of a function is always positive, then:

0 < |x -2| < 0.4

From the relationship above, then the largest δ such that :

0 < |x - 2| < \delta

<h2>→ δ = 0.4</h2>

3/4 of a number minus -16 equals 28. What is the number ?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The number is 16

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 n- (-16) = 28

3/4 n + 16 = 28

Subtract 16 from each side

3/4 n +16-16 = 28-16

3/4 n =12

Multiply by 4/3 to isolate n

4/3 * 3/4 n = 12 * 4/3

n = 16

If x² - y² = 55, and x - y = 11, then y =<br> a. 8<br> b. 5<br> c. 3<br> d. -8<br> e. -3
irina1246 [14]
X^2-y^2=55
this means that 
(x+y)(x-y)=55
we know that x-y=11 so we can write
(x+y)(11)=55
x+y=55/11 we divide by 11 and we obtain 
x+y=5

x-y=11 this means
x=y+11 we replace in the other equation (x+y=5)

y+11+y=5
2y=5-11
2y=-6
y=-3
and you find out that also 
x=8
