Answer:
1 1/4
reason:
add 7/8 and 3/8 to get 10/8
this can be simplified to 1 2/8
simplify 2/8 to 1/4 to get the final answer, 1 1/4
Answer:
563.55
Step-by-step explanation:
85/100*663=563.55
A linear equation has 1 for all exponents on the placeholders
aka the equation is first degree (aka the hightest exponent on placeholders=1) so
it is linear
*Given
Money of Phoebe - 3 times as much as Andy
Money of Andy - 2 times as much as Polly
Total money of Phoebe, - £270
Andy and Polly
*Solution
Let
B - Phoebe's money
A - Andy's money
L - Polly's money
1. The money of the Phoebe, Andy, and Polly, when added together would total £270. Thus,
B + A + L = £270 (EQUATION 1)
2. Phoebe has three times as much money as Andy and this is expressed as
B = 3A
3. Andy has twice as much money as Polly and this is expressed as
A = 2L (EQUATION 2)
4. This means that Phoebe has ____ as much money as Polly,
B = 3A
B = 3 x (2L)
B = 6L (EQUATION 3)
This step allows us to eliminate the variables B and A in EQUATION 1 by expressing the equation in terms of Polly's money only.
5. Substituting B with 6L, and A with 2L, EQUATION 1 becomes,
6L + 2L + L = £270
9L = £270
L = £30
So, Polly has £30.
6. Substituting L into EQUATIONS 2 and 3 would give us the values for Andy's money and Phoebe's money, respectively.
A = 2L
A = 2(£30)
A = £60
Andy has £60
B = 6L
B = 6(£30)
B = £180
Phoebe has £180
Therefore, Polly's money is £30, Andy's is £60, and Phoebe's is £180.
Answer:
The two iterations of f(x) = 1.5598
Step-by-step explanation:
If we apply Newton's iterations method, we get a new guess of a zero of a function, f(x), xₙ₊₁, using a previous guess of, xₙ.
xₙ₊₁ = xₙ - f(xₙ) / f'(xₙ)
Given;
f(xₙ) = cos x, then f'(xₙ) = - sin x
cos x / - sin x = -cot x
substitute in "-cot x" into the equation
xₙ₊₁ = xₙ - (- cot x)
xₙ₊₁ = xₙ + cot x
x₁ = 0.7
first iteration
x₂ = 0.7 + cot (0.7)
x₂ = 0.7 + 1.18724
x₂ = 1.88724
second iteration
x₃ = 1.88724 + cot (1.88724)
x₃ = 1.88724 - 0.32744
x₃ = 1.5598
To four decimal places = 1.5598
