Answer: £66</h3>
Your teacher may want you to leave off the pounds sign.
==========================================================
Explanation:
x = amount Bill gets
3x = amount Sam gets, because he gets three times as much
x+3x = 4x = total amount of money
4x = 88
x = 88/4
x = 22
Bill gets £22
3x = 3*22 = 66
Sam gets £66
Note that 22+66 = 88 to help confirm the answer.
Answer: 5 pounds of ground beef ( don't see second :-( )
Step-by-step explanation: I found the unit rate per pound ( 2.25 ) and then multiplied that by the other pounds to compare the two prices and I only found 5 pounds to be incorrect, but I'll keep digging, hope this helps!
Answer:
Half Life
Step-by-step explanation:
Cells decay by half of how much they decayed last time. This is an example of exponential decay.
Answer:
B. x ≈ 13/8
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume that one iteration consists of determining the midpoint of the interval known to contain the root.
The graph shows the functions intersect between x=1 and x=2, hence our first guess is x = 3/2.
Evaluation of the difference between the left side expression and the right side expression for x = 3/2 shows that difference to be negative, so we can narrow the interval to (3/2, 2). Our 2nd guess is the midpoint of this interval, so is x = 7/4.
Evaluation of the difference between the left side expression and the right side expression for x = 3/4 shows that difference to be positive, so we can narrow the interval to (3/2, 7/4). Our 3rd guess is the midpoint of this interval, so is x = 13/8.
_____
The sign of the difference at this value of x is still negative, so the next guess would be 27/16. It is a little hard to tell what the question means by "3 iterations." Evaluating the function for x=13/8 will be the third evaluation, so the determination that x=27/16 will be the next guess might be considered to be the result of the 3rd iteration.
