Debnil have 2 tablespoons to salt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of teaspoons of salt = 6

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons = 3:1

Let,

x be the number of tablespoon of salt for 6 teaspoons.

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons = 6:x

Using proportion

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons :: Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons

$3:1::6:x$

Product of mean = Product of extreme

$6*1=3*x\\6=3x\\3x=6$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{6}{3}\\x=2$

Debnil have 2 tablespoons to salt.

Let g be the function given by g(x)=limh→0sin(x h)−sinxh. What is the instantaneous rate of change of g with respect to x at x=π

lorasvet [3.4K]

The instantaneous rate of change of g with respect to x at x = π/3 is 1/2.

<h3>How to determine the instantaneous rate of change of a given function</h3>

The instantaneous rate of change at a given value of $x$ can be found by concept of derivative, which is described below:

$g(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}$

Where $h$ is the difference rate.

In this question we must find an expression for the instantaneous rate of change of $g$ if $f(x) = \sin x$ and evaluate the resulting expression for $x = \frac{\pi}{3}$ . Then, we have the following procedure below:

$g(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{\sin (x+h)-\sin x}{h}$

$g(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{\sin x\cdot \cos h +\sin h\cdot \cos x -\sin x}{h}$

$g(x) = \lim_{h \to 0} \frac{\sin h}{h}\cdot \lim_{h \to 0} \cos x$

$g(x) = \cos x$

Now we evaluate $g(x)$ for $x = \frac{\pi}{3}$ :

$g\left(\frac{\pi}{3} \right) = \cos \frac{\pi}{3} = \frac{1}{2}$

The instantaneous rate of change of g with respect to x at x = π/3 is 1/2. $\blacksquare$

Find the volume Please help have to turn in a hour from now

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

V ≈ 226.72 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for volume of a cone using slant height and radius.

V = 1/3 π r² √ l² - r²

Then, plug in dimensions and solve.

V = 1/3 π (10)² √ 10² - 5²

V ≈ 226.72 cm³

Hope I could help!!! Good luck!!!

Statistics question; please help.

Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

Does this sample provide convincing evidence that the machine is working properly?

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution test:

$z=\frac{x- \mu }{ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }=\frac{ (x-\mu)\sqrt{n}}{\sigma}$

Where,

$x: \text{ sample mean}$

$\sigma: \text{ standard deviation}$

$n: \text{ sample size determination}$

$\mu: \text{ hypothesized size of the screw}$

$z=\frac{(1.476-1.5)\sqrt{200} }{0.203 }$

$z=\frac{(-0.024)10\sqrt{2} }{0.203 }$

$z \approx -1.672$

Once the significance level was not given, It is usually taken an assumption of a 5% significance level.

Taking the significance level of 5%, which means a confidence level of 95%, we have a z-value of $\pm 1.96$

Therefore, we fail to reject the null. It means that the hypothesis test is not statistically significant: the average length is not different from 1.5!
