X^3-5x=59 the soloution is between 4 and 5

Mathematics
1 answer:
lisov135 [29]4 years ago
7 0

Answer:

True

x = 4.32 (2 dp)

Step-by-step explanation:

x³ - 5x = 59

x³ - 5x - 59 = 0

x = 4

4³ - 5(4) - 59 = -15

x = 5

5³ - 5(5) - 59 = +41

A change in sign indicates the existence of root between 4 and 5

Use iterative process to identify the root

x³ - 5x - 59 = 0

x³ = 5x + 59

x = (5x + 59)^⅓

Start at any x between 4 and 5

x(n+1) = (5x(n) + 59)^⅓

x0 = 4.8

x1 = 4.362070671

x2 = 4.323369309

x3 = 4.319915667

x4 = 4.319607202

x5 = 4.318579649

Clearly x is 4.32 (2 dp)

The number of hours, h, that Mr. Hampton works varies directly with the number of tasks, t, he has to perform. If he has 6 tasks
olga2289 [7]

i think its 2.5 because 15/6= 2.5 so 2.5t=h and the equation is kt=h so 2.5 makes the most sense.

I hope this helps

Which pair of undefined terms is used to define a ray?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A point and a line.

Further explanation:

Ray is part of the line with one endpoint. Ray is an endless straight path in one direction from a starting point, e.g., .

The arrow above the point shows the direction of the longitudinal beam. The length of the ray cannot be calculated.

Undefined terms are basic figure that is not defined in terms of other figures. The undefined terms (or primitive terms) in geometry are a point, line, and plane.

These key terms cannot be mathematically defined using other known words.

A point represents a location and has no dimension (size).  It is labeled with a capital letter and a dot.

A line is an infinite number of points extending in opposite directions that have only one dimension. It has one dimension. It is a straight path and no thickness.

A plane is a flat surface that contains many points and lines.  A plane extends infinitely in all four directions.  It is two-dimensional.  Three noncollinear points determine a plane, as there is exactly one plane that can go through these points.
