Answer:

(B)  \displaystyle \frac{W(3.1) - W(2.9)}{0.2}

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Calculus</u>

Limits

Derivatives

  • The definition of a derivative is the slope of the tangent line.

Derivative Notation

Instantaneous Rates

  • Tangent Line: \displaystyle f'(x) = \frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b - a}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are trying to find a <em>rate</em> at which W(t) changes, we must find the <em>derivative</em> at <em>t</em> = 3.

We are given 2 close answer choices that would have the same <em>numerical</em> answer but different <em>meanings</em>:

  1. (A)  \displaystyle  \lim_{t \to 3} W(t)
  2. (B)  \displaystyle \frac{W(3.1) - W(2.9)}{0.2}

If we look at answer choice (A), we see that our units would simply just be volume. It would not have the units of a rate of change. Yes, it may be the closest numerically correct answer, but it does not tell us the <em>rate</em> at which the volume would be changing and it is not a derivative.

If we look at answer choice (B), we see that our units would be cm³/s, and that is most certainly a rate of change. Answer choice (B) is also a <em>derivative</em> at <em>t</em> = 3, and a derivative tells us what <em>rate</em> something is changing.

∴ Answer choice (B) will give us the best estimate for the value of the instantaneous rate of change of W(t) when <em>t</em> = 3.

What is 77/200 as a decimal
garri49 [273]
<span>The correct answer is 0.385.

Explanation<span>:
Decimals deal with powers of 10, such as 10, 100, 1000, etc. We can change this to a power of 10 by dividing both top and bottom by 2; this will give us 100 in the denominator.

77/2=38.5, so we have 38.5/100.

Dividing by 100 is the same as moving the decimal two places to the left, so we have 0.385.</span></span>

without graphing what is the equation for THE LINE THAT PASSES THROUGH THE POINTS (-4, 3) AND (6 -2)
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:      y = -1/2 x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

A (-4 , 3)

B (6, -2)

Formula

m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \\

(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Process

              m = \frac{-2 - 3}{6 + 4}

              m= \frac{-5}{10}

              m = -\frac{1}{2}

         

             (y - 3) = -1/2 (x + 4)

             2(y - 3) = -1(x + 4)

             2y - 6 = -x - 4

             2y = - x - 4 + 6

             2y = - x +2

             y = -1/2 x + 1
