Can anyone help me with 34-51?

Notice however that 22.5/100 is not in lowest terms so we need to multiply the numerator and the denominator of 22.5 by 10 in order to remove the decimal point. When we do this, we will end up with the fraction 225/1000.

The fraction 225/1000 can be written in lowest terms by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 25 and we get the fraction 9/40.

Therefore, 22.5% can be written as the fraction 9/40.

Suppose that we don't have a formula for g(x) but we know that g(3) = −5 and g'(x) = x2 + 7 for all x.

Leni [432]

Answer:

a)

$g(2.9) \approx -6.6$

$g(3.1) \approx -3.4$

b)

The values are too small since $g''$ is positive for both values of $x$ in. I'm speaking of the $x$ values, 2.9 and 3.1.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The point-slope of a line is:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

where $m$ is the slope and $(x_1,y_1)$ is a point on that line.

We want to find the equation of the tangent line of the curve $g$ at the point $(3,-5)$ on $g$ .

So we know $(x_1,y_1)=(3,-5)$ .

To find $m$ , we must calculate the derivative of $g$ at $x=3$ :

$m=g'(3)=(3)^2+7=9+7=16$ .

So the equation of the tangent line to curve $g$ at $(3,-5)$ is:

$y-(-5)=16(x-3)$ .

I'm going to solve this for $y$ .

$y-(-5)=16(x-3)$

$y+5=16(x-3)$

Subtract 5 on both sides:

$y=16(x-3)-5$

What this means is for values $x$ near $x=3$ is that:

$g(x) \approx 16(x-3)-5$ .

Let's evaluate this approximation function for $g(2.9)$ .

$g(2.9) \approx 16(2.9-3)-5$

$g(2.9) \approx 16(-.1)-5$

$g(2.9) \approx -1.6-5$

$g(2.9) \approx -6.6$

Let's evaluate this approximation function for $g(3.1)$ .

$g(3.1) \approx 16(3.1-3)-5$

$g(3.1) \approx 16(.1)-5$

$g(3.1) \approx 1.6-5$

$g(3.1) \approx -3.4$

b) To determine if these are over approximations or under approximations I will require the second derivative.

If $g''$ is positive, then it leads to underestimation (since the curve is concave up at that number).

If $g''$ is negative, then it leads to overestimation (since the curve is concave down at that number).

$g'(x)=x^2+7$

$g''(x)=2x+0$

$g''(x)=2x$

$2x$ is positive for $x>0$ .

$2x$ is negative for $x$ .

That is, $g''(2.9)>0 \text{ and } g''(3.1)>0$ .

So $2x$ is positive for both values of $x$ which means that the values we found in part (a) are underestimations.
