Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Step1: find the interval of roots. Consider -3 and -2
Hence, the root must be on [-3,-2]
Step2: consider the middle point -2.5
Then, the root must be on [-3, -2.5]
Step 3: Repeat step 2 by finding the value of f at the middle point -2.75
Step 3: Repeat step 2 by finding the value of f at the middle point of the interval [-2.75,-2.5] which is -2.625
Step4: Repeat step 2 on [-2.75, -2.625]
Repeat step 2 until you got the root which is -2.701
Answer:
The way to answer this question is to find out the price per pound potato by dividing the amount the restaurant chief paid by the number of pounds bought.
Your question lacks details on the pounds bought in the other stores so I will assume these figures and you can use it as a reference.
Restaurant B - 2 pounds
Restaurant C - 12 pounds
Restaurant D - 5 pounds
Price per pound
Restaurant A = 6.60/8
= $0.83
Restaurant B = 3.50/2
= $1.75
Restaurant C = 9.75/12
= $0.82
Restaurant D = 4.80/8
= $0.96
<u><em>Restaurant C </em></u><em>has the lowest price per pound for potatoes. </em>
Answer is B. 11. The square root is roughly 10.5, so you round up and get 11
