9514 1404 393

Explanation:

From your knowledge of the world, you know that ...

  • the cost of multiple items is the sum of their individual costs
  • multiplication can be used for repeated addition
  • utility fees are the sum of fixed fees and usage-related fees
  • for a phone plan, text message costs are a usage-related fee

The problem statement asks for the cost of a single text message. For the purpose of finding that value, it is convenient to represent it using the variable <em>t</em>. The problem statement says Eric was billed for 450 text messages, so we expect his usage-related fee to be 450t, the sum of the costs of 450 messages--using multiplication for the repeated sum.

The problem statement says Eric was billed 12.50 for fixed fees. So, we expect Eric's total bill to be ...

  fixed fees + usage-related fees = 12.50 + 450t

The problem statement says Eric's total bill was 35.00, so we assume that is the sum of the above-listed fees. That is, the two ways to express Eric's total bill are equal.

  12.50 +450t = 35.00

You may have noticed that in practice problems related to order, logarithms are usually just "log". As you know from algebra, th
Usimov [2.4K]

Explanation:

A logarithm in one base is a constant multiple of a logarithm in any other base. Any "order of ..." specification does not include the applicable constant multiplier or the smaller order terms that may be required for an exact computation.

The concept of "order of" is similar to the concept of the degree of a polynomial. Knowing the degree of a polynomial tells you something about the "end behavior" as the function argument gets large. The specifics of the scale factor and lower-degree terms become largely irrelevant.

Explain how you can approximate a cube root when the cube is not a perfect cube.
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

It would take a long time to explain . There is a good method called Newton's method which involves graphs of the type

y = x^3 - n and applying calculus to produce cycles of approximation  until you'll get close to the required cubic root.

You'll find it on online videos.
