So it tells us that g(3) = -5 and g'(x) = x^2 + 7.
So g(3) = -5 is the point (3, -5)
Using linear approximation
g(2.99) is the point (2.99, g(3) + g'(3)*(2.99-3))
now we just need to simplify that
(2.99, -5 + (16)*(-.01)) which is (2.99, -5 + -.16) which is (2.99, -5.16)
So g(2.99) = -5.16
Doing the same thing for the other g(3.01)
(3.01, g(3) + g'(3)*(3.01-3))
(3.01, -5 + 16*.01) which is (3.01, -4.84)
So g(3.01) = -4.84
So we have our linear approximation for the two.
If you wanted to, you could check your answer by finding g(x). Since you know g'(x), take the antiderivative and we will get
g(x) = 1/3x^3 + 7x + C
Since we know g(3) = -5, we can use that to solve for C
1/3(3)^3 + 7(3) + C = -5 and we find that C = -35
so that means g(x) = (x^3)/3 + 7x - 35
So just to check our linear approximations use that to find g(2.99) and g(3.01)
g(2.99) = -5.1597
g(3.01) = -4.8397
So as you can see, using the linear approximation we got our answers as
g(2.99) = -5.16
g(3.01) = -4.84
which are both really close to the actual answer. Not a bad method if you ever need to use it.
Answer:
Length, l=450 yards
Width, b=225 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the long side be x and since the length is twice the width, then the width is half of that length hence 0.5x. Since we only have three parts to fence as one long side doesn't require fencing, then the perimeter will be given by x+0.5x+0.5x=2x=900 yards
X=900/2=450 yards for long side.
The short side is 0.5x hence 0.5*450=225 yards
In conclusion, the long side is 450 yards while short side is 225 yards.

Your answer is 7
Answer:
15 boys and 20 girls
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Since we cant simplify 3:4 we will leave it just like that.
2. 3x+4x=35
3. We add them both to give us 7x=35
4. We divide by 7 to get x by itself which results in 35/7=5.
x=5
5. Now we found x we can create 2 seperate soulutions:
3(5)=
and 4(5)=
Therefore there are 15 boys and 20 girls in the class. This makes sense because 15/20 reduced is 3 over 4.
