Yes choice D is the correct answer. Nice job.

If you wanted, you can simplify the linear approximation L(x) 
L(x) = f(a) + (x-a)*f'(a)
L(x) = f(-0.5) + (x-(-0.5))*f'(-0.5)
L(x) = 2 + (x+0.5)*4
L(x) = 2+4x+2
L(x) = 4x+4

Then plug in x = 0
L(x) = 4x+4
L(0) = 4(0)+4
L(0) = 4

But your method is a shorter route.

TV Cabinet TV screens are measured on the diagonal. If we have a TV-cabinet that is 72 inches long and 64 inches high, how large
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

<h2> 94in</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We are expected to solve for the diagonal of a rectangular shape.

given that the length, l=72in

width, w=64in

we can apply the Pythagoras theorem to solve for the diagonal since it corresponds to the hypotenuse of the rectangle

note: we are to leave 2-inches on all sides for the edging of the TV

l=72-2= 70 in

w=64-2=62

diag=√l^2+w^2

diag=√70^2+62^2

diag=√4900+3844

diag=√8744

diag=93.50 in

to the nearest tenth, it is 94in

Answer:

(3x + 2)(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x² - 10x - 8 = 0

(splitting the middle term)

3x² -12x + 2x -8 = 0

3x(x-4) + 2(x-4) = 0

(3x + 2)(x-4) = 0

(3x + 2)(x-4) is the correct answer (option a)

Fourteen less than three fourths of a number is negative eight. Find the number
Lapatulllka [165]
The word "is" in this kind of problem typically means "=", so we know that something =-8. Since we're finding the number, we should start with the closest thing in the phrase given to that number. In this case, it's 3/4x. Finally, since we have the "14 less than", we need to add that in. Your answer is:

3/4x-14=-8. Now we can just solve!
       +14   +14

3/4x=6.
*4/3   *4/3

x=8.
