Better value for 15.3 ounce cereal

1 answer:

7 0

In the second case you have $4.59 per 20 ounces
Thus take 4.59 / 20 and you get $0.2295 per ounce or almost 23 cents per ounce

Hope it helps

The circumference of a sphere was measured to be 80 cm with a possible error of 0.5 cm. A) Use differentials to estimate the max

siniylev [52]

Answer:

A) The maximum error in the calculated surface area: $25cm^2$

Relative error: $0.013$

B) The maximum error in the calculated volume: $162cm^2$

Relative error: $0.019$

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The formula for the surface area is:

$A=4\pi r^2$

The measured value is the circumference which is equal to:

$C=2\pi r$

then the radius is:

$r=\frac{C}{2\pi}$

Substituting in the formula of the surface:

$A=4\pi(\frac{C}{2\pi})^2\\A=4\pi(\frac{C^2}{4\pi^2})\\A=\frac{C^2}{\pi}$

Using the formula to calculate the error:

$dy=f'(x)dx$

Where $x$ is the variable measured and $y$ is a function of $x$ ( $y=f(x)$ ).

$dA=f'(C)dC\\dA=\frac{2C^{(2-1)}}{\pi}dC\\dA=\frac{2C}{\pi}dC$

We have C=80cm and dC=0.5cm

$dA=\frac{2C}{\pi}dC\\dA=\frac{2(80)}{\pi}(0.5)\\dA=\frac{160}{\pi}(0.5)\\dA=50.9296(0.5)\\dA=25.4648\approx25cm^2$

The relative error is the maximum error divide by the total area. The total area is: $A=\frac{C^2}{\pi}=\frac{(80)^2}{\pi}=\frac{6400}{\pi}=2037.1833cm^2$

$\frac{dA}{A}=\frac{25.4648}{2037.1833} =0.0125\approx0.013$

B) The formula for the volume is:

$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3$

Using $r=\frac{C}{2\pi}$

$V=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3\\V=\frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{C}{2\pi})^3\\V=\frac{4}{3} \pi (\frac{C^3}{8\pi^3})\\V=\frac{1}{3}(\frac{C^3}{2\pi^2})\\V=\frac{C^3}{6\pi^2}$

The maximum error is:

$dV=\frac{3C^{3-1}}{6\pi^2}dC\\dV=\frac{C^{2}}{2\pi^2}dC\\dV=\frac{(80)^{2}}{2\pi^2}(0.5)\\dV=\frac{6400}{2\pi^2}(0.5)\\dV=\frac{6400}{2\pi^2}(0.5)\\dV=(324.2278)(0.5)\\dV=162.1139\approx162cm^2$

The calculated volume is:

$V=\frac{C^3}{6\pi^2}\\V=\frac{(80)^3}{6\pi^2}\\V=\frac{512000}{6\pi^2}\\V=8646.0743$

The relative error is:

$\frac{dV}{V}=\frac{162.1139}{8646.0743}=0.0188\approx0.019$

There are 32 students in Jenna's class. Jenna brought in 14 cupcakes. Which equation can be used to find the number of cupcakes

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

n = 32 - 14 (= 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

You haven't given the answer options, however I assume it will be written in this form. I.e. the number of cupcakes still needed is just the total number of students (32) minus the number that Jenna bought (14).

so n = 32 -14 (=18)

Consider circle C with radius 5 cm and a central angle measure of 60°. What fraction of the whole circle is arc RS?

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

There are a total of 360° in any given circle, so an arc swept out by 60° of that 360° would make up 60/360 = 1/6 of the circle's circumference.

The formal for the circumference of a circle comes out of the definition of one of the most famous constants in mathematics: π. π is defined as the ratio between a circle's circumference and its diameter, or:

From this definition, we can multiply both sides of the equation by d to obtain

or, circumference is π times the diameter. To find the diameter, we just need to double the radius, giving us 5 * 2 = 10cm. Usually you'll see π approximated as 3.14, which is likely what they want you to use here. Using that approximation, we find the circumference to be 3.14 * 10 = 31.4 cm.

Finally, to get the length of that arc, we just need to take 1/6 of the circumference (since the arc sweeps out 1/6 of the circle), giving us 31.4 * 1/6 ≈ 5.2 cm.
