9+6=15 and 15-12=3 so this =3 the -(-6) becomes positive
Elanso [62]3 years ago
3 0

Remember to follow the Left -> Right rule.

First, solve 9 - (-6). Remember that two negatives = one positive:

9 - (-6) = 9 + 6 = 15

Now solve:

15 - 12 = 3

3 is your answer

Which of the following is equivalent to the expression 2/5 divided by 4 ?
erik [133]

Answer:

C) 2/5×1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing by a number is the same by multiplying by the reciprocal of the number.

For Example:

1/2 divided by 3 would be the same as 1/2 x 1/3

So for this problem we are given that 2/5 is divided by 4 which would be the same as 2/5 multiplied by the reciprocal of 4 which is 1/4 and thus the answer is option C which is 2/5×1/4

Readme [11.4K]
23 mm, 20mm, 13mm sides: No equal sides and No equal angles are characteristics of a Scalene Triangle.

62,72,46 angles : All angles are less than 90°, this means that the triangle is an acute triangle.

Based on the above information the triangle is an ACUTE SCALENE TRIANGLE.

In the derivation of Newton’s method, to determine the formula for xi+1, the function f(x) is approximated using a first-order T
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Part A.

Let f(x) = 0;

suppose x= a+h

such that f(x) =f(a+h) = 0

By second order Taylor approximation, we get

f(a) + hf'±(a) + \frac{h^{2} }{2!}f''(a) = 0

h = \frac{-f'(a) }{f''(a)} ± \frac{\sqrt[]{(f'(a))^{2}-2f(a)f''(a) } }{f''(a)}

So, we get the succeeding equation for Newton's method as

x_{i+1} = x_{i} + \frac{1}{f''x_{i}}  [-f'(x_{i}) ± \sqrt{f(x_{i})^{2}-2fx_{i}f''x_{i} } ]

Part B.

It is evident that Newton's method fails in two cases, as:

1.  if f''(x) = 0

2. if f'(x)² is less than 2f(x)f''(x)    

Part C.

In case  x_{i+1} is close to x_{i}, the choice that shouldbe made instead of ± in part A is:

f'(x) = \sqrt{f'(x)^{2} - 2f(x)f''(x)}  ⇔ x_{i+1} = x_{i}

Part D.

As given x_{i+1} = x_{i} = h

or                 h = x_{i+1} - x_{i}

We get,

f(a) + hf'(a) +(h²/2)f''(a) = 0

or h² = -hf(a)/f'(a)

Also,             (x_{i+1}-x_{i})² = -(x_{i+1}-x_{i})(f(x_{i})/f'(x_{i}))

So,                f(a) + hf'(a) - (f''(a)/2)(hf(a)/f'(a)) = 0

It becomes   h = -f(a)/f'(a) + (h/2)[f''(a)f(a)/(f(a))²]

Also,             x_{i+1} = x_{i} -f(x_{i})/f'(x_{i}) + [(x_{i+1} - x_{i})f''(x_{i})f(x_{i})]/[2(f'(x_{i}))²]
