Answer:

The maximum error in the calculated surface area is approximately 8.3083 square centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference (s), in centimeters, and the surface area (A_{s}), in square centimeters, of a sphere are represented by following formulas:

A_{s} = 4\pi\cdot r^{2} (1)

s = 2\pi\cdot r (2)

Where r is the radius of the sphere, in centimeters.

By applying (2) in (1), we derive this expression:

A_{s} = 4\pi\cdot \left(\frac{s}{2\pi} \right)^{2}

A_{s} = \frac{s^{2}}{\pi^{2}} (3)

By definition of Total Differential, which is equivalent to definition of Linear Approximation in this case, we determine an expression for the maximum error in the calculated surface area (\Delta A_{s}), in square centimeters:

\Delta A_{s} = \frac{\partial A_{s}}{\partial s} \cdot \Delta s

\Delta A_{s} = \frac{2\cdot s\cdot \Delta s}{\pi^{2}} (4)

Where:

s - Measure circumference, in centimeters.

\Delta s - Possible error in circumference, in centimeters.

If we know that s = 82\,cm and \Delta s = 0.5\,cm, then the maximum error is:

\Delta A_{s} \approx 8.3083\,cm^{2}

The maximum error in the calculated surface area is approximately 8.3083 square centimeters.

PLEASE HELP TIMED TEST What is the value of x in the matrix equation below?
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the matrix;

-2\left[\begin{array}{ccc}x&-1\\3&5\end{array}\right] + \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&8\\-1&6\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}x&10\\-7&-4\end{array}\right]

Converting to equations

From the first row of each matrices

-2x + 3 = x

Collect the like terms

-2x - x = -3

-3x = -3

x = -3/-3

x = 1

Hence the value of x is 1
