The idea is to use the tangent line to
at
in order to approximate
.
We have


so the linear approximation to
is

Hence
and
.
Then

Answer:
this is the ans- 3.36956522
Answer:
Answer: 1/12
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5x-4=8-3/5x.
We want to tank x out of the denominator by multiplying x on both sides.
2/5-4x=8x-3/5
Now we simplify
-12x=-1
x=1/12
Put x in the equation to check it
Answer:
x=60
Step-by-step explanation:
3/5x + 1/4x=51
12/20x+5/20x=51
17/20x=51
17x=1020
x=60
Double-Check:
3/5(60)+1/4(60)=51
180/5+60/4=51
36+15=51
51=51
Hope it helped!
