Answer:

The maximum error in the calculated area of the rectangle is 10.4 \:cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle with length L and width W is A= L\cdot W so the differential of <em>A</em> is

dA=\frac{\partial A}{\partial L} \Delta L+\frac{\partial A}{\partial W} \Delta W

\frac{\partial A}{\partial L} = W\\\frac{\partial A}{\partial W}=L so

dA=W\Delta L+L \Delta W

We know that each error is at most 0.1 cm, we have |\Delta L|\leq 0.1, |\Delta W|\leq 0.1. To find the maximum error in the calculated area of the rectangle we take \Delta L = 0.1, \Delta W = 0.1 and L=55, W=49. This gives

dA=49\cdot 0.1+55 \cdot 0.1

dA=10.4

Thus the maximum error in the calculated area of the rectangle is 10.4 \:cm^2

Consider a graph of the equation y = −3x + 4. What is the y-intercept?
Murrr4er [49]
Y = -3x + 4
In y = mx + b form, the y intercept will be in the b position.

y = mx + b
y = -3x + 4......so ur y intercept is 4.....or (0,4)

just so u know....in y = mx + b form, the slope will be in the m position....so ur slope would be -3

Answer:

2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros are the points on the x- axis where the graph crosses.

Since the graph crosses the x- axis at x = - 1 and x = 5, then

The zeros are x = - 1 and x = 5
