Answer:

89 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Uniforms come in packs of 8, and the store plans to purchase 56 packs of uniforms.

This means

1 pack = 8 uniforms

56 packs = x uniforms

Cross Multiply

x = 56 × 8 uniforms

x = 448 uniforms

The plan is to hand out 5 uniforms to every employee one for each day or the week.

Hence, the number of employees that the store can give can uniforms to is calculated as:

5 uniforms = 1 employee

448 uniforms = x employees

Cross Multiply

5x = 448 × 1 employee

x = 448/5

x = 89.6 employees.

Since a person cannot be represented by decimal, the store can give uniforms to 89 employees

(a) Use a linear approximation to estimate f(0.9) and f(1.1). f(0.9) ≈ f(1.1) ≈ (b) Are your estimates in part (a) too large or
olasank [31]

Answer:

(Missing part of the question is attached)

L(x)=2x+3

Estimates are too large.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the only information we know about the function is:

f(1)=5

where the graph of its derivative is shown in the attachment

<h3>(a)</h3>

If the function f\\ is differentiable at point x=1 , the tangent line to the graph of f at 1 is given by the equation:

y=f(1) +f'(1)(x-1)

So we call the linear function:

L(x)=f(1) +f'(1)(x-1)

We know the f(1)=5 as it is given in the question, and f'(1)=2 from the graph attached. Substitute in the equation of L(x).

L(x)=5+2(x-1)\\L(x)=5+2x-2\\L(x)=2x+3\\

<h3>(b)</h3>

At x=1,  f'(x) is positive but it is decreasing. However. if we draw the tangent lines, we see that the tangent lines are becoming less steeper, so the tangent lines lie above the curve f. Thus, The estimates are too large.
