Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Required
The positive root of
Equate to 0
So, we have our function to be:
Differentiate the above function:
Using Newton's method of approximation, we have:
Plot the graph of to get
--- see attachment for graph
From the attached graph, the first value of x is at 2.2; so:
So, we have:
The process will be repeated until the digit in the 6th decimal place remains unchanged
Hence:
Answer:
(c) y -2 = 6/5(x -1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations are all in point-slope form with a slope of 6/5. The points used are (-1, -2), (-2, -1), and (1, 2). It seems point (1, 2) best matches a point on the graphed line. Choice C is the best. (In the attached graph, choice C is the red line.)
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The point-slope form of the equation for a line is ...
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
__
The equation might be easier to see if the point chosen were one at a grid intersection, such as (-4, -4) or (6, 8).
Answer:
Margin of error = 4.21 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Question,
Therefore, Sample mean = 31 ounces , Sample size(n) = 25 , Alpha(α) = 0.10 & Population standard deviation(σ) = 12.8 ounces
Putting The Values, We get
1.645 × (12.8 / √25 ) ⇒ 4.2112 ≈ 4.21
Thus, the maximum margin of error associated with a 90% confidence interval for the true population mean turtle weight is 4.21 ounces
