Answer:

The width of the similar rug is 3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the percentage between the lengths:

3/9 = 1/3 (percentage)

The percentage is fixed for the widths as well which means 1/x = 1/3

x=3

HELP!! ASAP PLEASE!! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!
patriot [66]

Answer:

6^-4 ÷ 3^-4

6^-4/3^-4

Since their powers are negative

Flip them both so the negative index is lost.

It now becomes

3^4/6^4

81/1296

=1/16

The weight of a person on or above the surface of the earth varies inversely as the square of the distance the person is from th
AleksandrR [38]
If you do this with a complex set of fractions and let
K = G Me m_space be the same in both parts, there should be some cancellation.

W_earth = 180 lbs

W_earth = K /3900 miles^2
W_space =K  /(3900 + 850)^2

180 / W_space = k/3900^2
x = k / (4750)^2

\frac{180}{Wspace} =  \frac{ \frac{k}{3900^{2} } }{ \frac{k}{4750^{2}} /[tex]\\Now you need to invert and multiply the bottom fraction on the left.\\[tex] \frac{180}{x} {=} \frac{k}{3900^{2}} {*} \frac{4750^{2}}{k} 

The ks cancel out.

You are left with 180/x = 4750^2 / 3900^2 Now cross multiply
180 * 3900^2 = 4750^2  = x
180 * 3900^2 / 4750^2 = x 
180 * 0.67413 = x
x = 121 pounds. Weight is a force, but because all the units on one side are equivalent to the units on the other, the conversions become part of k. Normally you would have to do the conversions, but not in this particular case.

Use a linear approximation (or differentials) to estimate the given number. (Round your answer to five decimal places.) 3 217
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

f(216) \approx 6.0093

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\sqrt[3]{217}

Required

Solve

Linear approximated as:

f(x + \triangle x) \approx f(x) +\triangle x \cdot f'(x)

Take:

x = 216; \triangle x= 1

So:

f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x}

Substitute 216 for x

f(x) = \sqrt[3]{216}

f(x) = 6

So, we have:

f(x + \triangle x) \approx f(x) +\triangle x \cdot f'(x)

f(215 + 1) \approx 6  +1 \cdot f'(x)

f(216) \approx 6  +1 \cdot f'(x)

To calculate f'(x);

We have:

f(x) = \sqrt[3]{x}

Rewrite as:

f(x) = x^\frac{1}{3}

Differentiate

f'(x) = \frac{1}{3}x^{\frac{1}{3} - 1}

Split

f'(x) = \frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{x^\frac{1}{3}}{x}

f'(x) = \frac{x^\frac{1}{3}}{3x}

Substitute 216 for x

f'(216) = \frac{216^\frac{1}{3}}{3*216}

f'(216) = \frac{6}{648}

f'(216) = \frac{3}{324}

So:

f(216) \approx 6  +1 \cdot f'(x)

f(216) \approx 6  +1 \cdot \frac{3}{324}

f(216) \approx 6  + \frac{3}{324}

f(216) \approx 6  + 0.0093

f(216) \approx 6.0093
