Mathematics

Arisa [49]2 years ago

Answer:

y - 6 = -7(x + 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (6 - -1)/(-8 - -7) = (6 + 1)/(-8 + 7) = 7/-1 = -7

Point-slope form: y - 6 = -7(x - -8)

=> y - 6 = -7(x + 8)

What does the word distribute mean to you?
Nadusha1986 [10]

In real life when I hear the word distribute, I know that it means that something is being handed out. In business, there is something called a distributor and they hand out stuff from the company that you buy it from. In mathematics, it means that you're giving another number something from another number.

Estimate the following quantities without using a calculator. Then find a more precise result, using a calculator if necessary.
zubka84 [21]

Explanation:

a. It is so easy to double a number that no approximation is necessary.

  31,000 × 200 = 3.1×10⁴ × 2×10² = 6.2×10⁶ exactly

__

b. 6.2×10³ × 5.2×10⁶ ≈ 6×5×10⁹ = 3×10¹⁰ approximately

The approximation can be refined a bit by taking the ".2" into account:

  6.2×10³ × 5.2×10⁶ ≈ (6×5 + .2×(6+5))×10⁹

  = 32.2×10⁹ = 3.22×10¹⁰ approximately

Actual product: 3.224×10¹⁰.

For most purposes, the approximation is an adequate approximation, as it it within 10% of the actual value.

__

c. 9×10⁶ -2.3×10⁴ ≈ 9×10⁶ approximately

A better approximation is to actually subtract an approximation of the smaller number:

  9×10⁶ -2.3×10⁴ ≈ (9 - 0.02)×10⁶ ≈ 8.98×10⁶ approximately

The actual value uses all of the digits of the smaller number:

  9×10⁶ -2.3×10⁴ ≈ (9 - 0.023)×10⁶ = 8.977×10⁶ exactly

As in part B, either approximation is adequate for most purposes, as the difference from the actual value is less than .3%.

_____

The accuracy required of an approximation, hence the work you expend improving accuracy, should depend on the need in the final application of the number. Often, approximations are used for budget or resource planning purposes where some "slop" is allowed or even expected.

They can also be used in engineering applications, where the error needs to be on the side of more safety (rather than less).
