How do you add a fraction and a whole? Please explain step by step to get marked as brainliest
Dimas [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

How do you add a fraction and a whole number?

add

Whole numbers are all natural numbers including 0.

A fraction represents a numerical value, which defines a part of a whole.

Answer: To add a fraction to a whole number, convert the whole number into a fraction, form a common denominator, and then add the two numerators.

Let's look into the steps to add a fraction to a whole number.

Explanation:

Convert the whole number into a fraction by taking the denominator as 1.

Compare the denominators and make them common so that they become like fractions.

Add the numerators of the two fractions.

Example: Add 2/15 and 5

Step 1: Converting the whole number into a fraction.

5 in terms of a fraction is written as 5/1

Step 2: Make the denominator common.

Since, 2/15 has 15 as the denominator, hence, we need to make the denominator of 5/1 as 15

Multiplying numerator and denominator with 15 we get,

(5 × 15) / (1 × 15) = 75/15

Step 3: Adding the numerators of the two fractions.

2/15 + 75/15 = (2 + 75)/15 = 77/15

Thus, to add a fraction to a whole number, convert the whole number into a fraction, form a common denominator, and then add the two numerators.

F(x) = -3x+17 and g(x) = x^2 -6 find g(5)-f(5)
aniked [119]

Answer:

For the given functions, the value of   g(5)-f(5)  = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given functions are:

f(x) =  -3x + 17

g(x) = x ^2 - 6

So, f(5)  = -3(5) + 17

= -15 + 17  = 2

And g(5) = (5)^2  - 6  = 25 - 6  = 19

So, f(5) = 2 and g(5) = 19

⇒g(5) - f(5) =  19 - 2  = 17

Hence, for the given functions, the value of   g(5)-f(5)  = 17

In the derivation of Newton’s method, to determine the formula for xi+1, the function f(x) is approximated using a first-order T
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Part A.

Let f(x) = 0;

suppose x= a+h

such that f(x) =f(a+h) = 0

By second order Taylor approximation, we get

f(a) + hf'±(a) + \frac{h^{2} }{2!}f''(a) = 0

h = \frac{-f'(a) }{f''(a)} ± \frac{\sqrt[]{(f'(a))^{2}-2f(a)f''(a) } }{f''(a)}

So, we get the succeeding equation for Newton's method as

x_{i+1} = x_{i} + \frac{1}{f''x_{i}}  [-f'(x_{i}) ± \sqrt{f(x_{i})^{2}-2fx_{i}f''x_{i} } ]

Part B.

It is evident that Newton's method fails in two cases, as:

1.  if f''(x) = 0

2. if f'(x)² is less than 2f(x)f''(x)    

Part C.

In case  x_{i+1} is close to x_{i}, the choice that shouldbe made instead of ± in part A is:

f'(x) = \sqrt{f'(x)^{2} - 2f(x)f''(x)}  ⇔ x_{i+1} = x_{i}

Part D.

As given x_{i+1} = x_{i} = h

or                 h = x_{i+1} - x_{i}

We get,

f(a) + hf'(a) +(h²/2)f''(a) = 0

or h² = -hf(a)/f'(a)

Also,             (x_{i+1}-x_{i})² = -(x_{i+1}-x_{i})(f(x_{i})/f'(x_{i}))

So,                f(a) + hf'(a) - (f''(a)/2)(hf(a)/f'(a)) = 0

It becomes   h = -f(a)/f'(a) + (h/2)[f''(a)f(a)/(f(a))²]

Also,             x_{i+1} = x_{i} -f(x_{i})/f'(x_{i}) + [(x_{i+1} - x_{i})f''(x_{i})f(x_{i})]/[2(f'(x_{i}))²]
