Solution :

Given

$f(x)=x^3-x-1, x_1=1$

$f'(x)=3x^2-1$

Let the initial approximation is $x_1 =1$

So by Newton's method, we get

$x_{n+1}=x_n-\frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)},n=1,2,...$

$x_2=x_1-\frac{f(x_1)}{f'(x_1)}=1-\frac{1^3-1-1}{3(1)^2-1}=1.5$

$x_3=1.5-\frac{(1.5)^3-1.5-1}{3(1.5)^2-1}=1.34782608$

$x_4=1.34782608-\frac{(1.34782608)^3-1.34782608-1}{3(1.34782608)^2-1}=1.32520039$

$x_5=1.32520039-\frac{(1.32520039)^3-1.32520039-1}{3(1.32520039)^2-1}=1.32471817$

$x_6=1.32471817-\frac{(1.32471817)^3-1.32471817-1}{3(1.32471817)^2-1}=1.32471795$

$x_5 \approx x_6$ are identical up to eight decimal places.

The approximate real root is x ≈ 1.32471795

∴ x = 1.32471795

Which of the following does not represent a function?

Answer:

D,

Step-by-step explanation:

D would be the only one that doesn't represent a function because the y-value never changes while the x-value does.

3 integers less than 25 range of 10 mean of 13​
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

8, 13, 18

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want the mean to be 13, and there are 3 integers, that means the sum of all 3 integers must be 39. I started at 13 and counted 5 up and 5 down, which already makes sure of the range and the mean is 13 (since it's balanced with 13 being the middle), therefore, 13+5 is 18, 13-5=8.

A trapezoidal prism undergoes a dilation. The surface area of the pre-image is 35 m². The surface area of the image is 315 m². T
Westkost [7]

The original object is called pre-image, and its dilated version is called image. The height of the image for the considered case is 17.4 m

<h3>How does dilation affect length, area, and volume of an object?</h3>

Suppose a figure (pre image) is dilated (dilated image) by scale factor of k.

So, if a side of the figure is of length L units, and that of its similar figure is of M units, then:

<u><em>L = k × M</em></u>

where 'k' will be called as scale factor.

The linear things grow linearly like length, height etc.

The quantities which are squares or multiple of linear things twice grow by square of scale factor. Thus, we need to multiply or divide by <u><em>k²</em></u><em> </em>to get each other corresponding quantity from their similar figures' quantities.

<u><em>So </em></u><u><em>area </em></u><u><em>of </em></u><u><em>first figure </em></u><u><em>= k² × area of second figure</em></u>

Similarly,

<u><em>Volume </em></u><u><em>of first figure = k³ × volume of second figure.</em></u>

It is because we will need to multiply 3 linear quantities to get volume, which results in k getting multiplied 3 times, thus, cubed.

For this case, we're given that;

  • Surface area of pre-image = 35 m²
  • Surface area of dilated image = 315 m²
  • Height of pre-image = 5.8 m
  • Height of dilated image.

Let the scale fator of dilation be k.

Then:

<u><em>So area of pre-image = k² × area of dilated image</em></u>

Thus, we get:

35 = k^2 \times 315\\\\k = \sqrt{\dfrac{35}{315}} = 1/3

(took positive root as scaling is done by non-negative factors as only magnitude matters mostly)

Thus, we get:

Height of pre-image = (1/3) × Height of dilated image (say h)

5.8 = (1/3) \times h\\h = 3 \times 5.8 = 17.4 \rm \: m

Thus, the original object is called pre-image, and its dilated version is called image. The height of the image for the considered case is 17.4 m

It took emily 25 min to rideHer bicycle to the repair shop in one hour and 15 minutes to walk back home. If Emily her bicycle to
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:the repair shop is 5km from her house.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance of the repair shop from her house.

Let y represent Emily's speed when riding.

Distance = speed × time

It took Emily 25 min to ride her bike to the repair shop. Converting 25 min to hours, it becomes 25/60 = 5/12 hours.

Distance covered,

x = y × 5/12 = 5y/12

It took her 1h 15 min to walk back home. Converting to hours, it becomes 1 + 15/60 = 1 1/4 = 5/4

If she can ride her bike 8km/h faster than she can walk, it means that her speed while walking would be y 8 8

Therefore,

Distance covered,

x= 5/4(y - 8) = (5y - 40)/4

Since the distance remains the same, then

5y/12 =(5y - 40)/4

Crossmultiplying, it becomes

5y × 4 = 12(5y - 40)

20y = 60y - 480

60y - 20y = 480

40y = 480

y = 480/40 = 12

x = 5y/12 = 5 × 12/12 = 5 km

Which one is it a.b.c.d u get 25 points if u answer it
kobusy [5.1K]
He cut the poster board into 10 equal parts, so you start with none of the poster board being used up.

Since there were 10 sheets of poster board, and now 8/10 of the original amount is left, we know that there must now be 8 sheets left out of the original 10 sheets.


He can make one sign for each remaining sheet, so he can make 8 signs.


The answer is C.
