Answer:

-5/6 =x

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -12x+7

We want to find x when f(x) = 17

17 = -12x+7

Subtract 7 from each side

17-7 = -12x +7-7

10 = -12x

Divide each side by 12

10/-12 = -12x/-12

-5/6 =x

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x = -\frac{5}{6}}

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -12x+7

Given that f(x) = 17

17 = -12x+7

Subtracting 7 to both sides

17-7 = -12x

10 =  -12 x

Dividing both sides by 12

x = - \frac{10}{12}

x = -\frac{5}{6}

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. (
True [87]
So it tells us that g(3) = -5 and g'(x) = x^2 + 7.

So g(3) = -5 is the point (3, -5)
Using linear approximation
g(2.99) is the point (2.99, g(3) + g'(3)*(2.99-3))

now we just need to simplify that
(2.99, -5 + (16)*(-.01)) which is (2.99, -5 + -.16) which is (2.99, -5.16)
So g(2.99) = -5.16 

Doing the same thing for the other g(3.01)
(3.01, g(3) + g'(3)*(3.01-3))
(3.01, -5 + 16*.01) which is (3.01, -4.84)
So g(3.01) = -4.84

So we have our linear approximation for the two. 

If you wanted to, you could check your answer by finding g(x).  Since you know g'(x), take the antiderivative and we will get 
g(x) = 1/3x^3 + 7x + C
Since we know g(3) = -5, we can use that to solve for C
1/3(3)^3 + 7(3) + C = -5 and we find that C = -35
so that means g(x) = (x^3)/3 + 7x - 35

So just to check our linear approximations use that to find g(2.99) and g(3.01)

g(2.99) = -5.1597
g(3.01) = -4.8397

So as you can see, using the linear approximation we got our answers as
g(2.99) = -5.16
g(3.01) = -4.84
which are both really close to the actual answer.  Not a bad method if you ever need to use it.

Which of the following sets of lengths can Sean use to make a right triangle?
Aleks [24]

Answer:

{8 cm, 15 cm, 17 cm}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The length sides of a right triangle must satisfy the Pythagoras Theorem

so

c^2=a^2+b^2

where

c is the greater side (the hypotenuse)

a and b are the legs (perpendicular sides)

<u><em>Verify each case</em></u>

case 1) we have

{5 cm, 15 cm, 18 cm}

substitute in the formula

18^2=5^2+15^2

324=250 ----> is not true

therefore

Sean cannot make a right triangle with this set of lengths

case 2) we have

{6 cm, 12 cm, 16 cm}

substitute in the formula

16^2=8^2+12^2

256=208 ----> is not true

therefore

Sean cannot make a right triangle with this set of lengths

case 3) we have

{5 cm, 13 cm, 15 cm}

substitute in the formula

15^2=5^2+13^2

225=194 ----> is not true

therefore

Sean cannot make a right triangle with this set of lengths

case 4) we have

{8 cm, 15 cm, 17 cm}

substitute in the formula

17^2=8^2+15^2

289=289 ----> is true

therefore

Sean can make a right triangle with this set of lengths
