Determine the value of X. 30 POINTS

Answer:

x = -1.964636

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation;

eˣ = 4 - x²

This can be re-written as;

eˣ - 4 + x² = 0

Let

f(x) = eˣ - 4 + x²    -----------(i)

To use Newton's method, we need to get the first derivative of the above equation as follows;

f¹(x) = eˣ - 0 + 2x

f¹(x) = eˣ + 2x         -----------(ii)

The graph of f(x) has been attached to this response.

As shown in the graph, the curve intersects the x-axis twice - around x = -2 and x = 1. These are the approximate roots of the equation.

Since the question requires that we use the negative root, then we start using the Newton's law with a guess of x₀ = -2 at n=0

From Newton's method,

[tex]x_{n+1} = x_n + \frac{f(x_{n})}{f^1(x_{n})}[/tex]

=> When n=0, the equation becomes;

[tex]x_{1} = x_0 - \frac{f(x_{0})}{f^1(x_{0})}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - \frac{f(-2)}{f^1(-2)}[/tex]

Where f(-2) and f¹(-2) are found by plugging x = -2 into equations (i) and (ii) as follows;

f(-2) = e⁻² - 4 + (-2)²

f(-2) = e⁻² = 0.13533528323

And;

f¹(2) = e⁻² + 2(-2)

f¹(2) = e⁻² - 4 = -3.8646647167

Therefore

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - \frac{0.13533528323}{-3.8646647167}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - \frac{0.13533528323}{-3.8646647167}[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 - -0.03501863503[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -2 + 0.03501863503[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -1.9649813649[/tex]

[tex]x_{1} = -1.96498136[/tex]         [to 8 decimal places]

=> When n=1, the equation becomes;

[tex]x_{2} = x_1 - \frac{f(x_{1})}{f^1(x_{1})}[/tex]

[tex]x_{2} = -1.96498136 - \frac{f(-1.9649813)}{f^1(-1.9649813)}[/tex]

Following the same procedure as above we have

[tex]x_{2} = -1.96463563[/tex]

=> When n=2, the equation becomes;

[tex]x_{3} = x_2 - \frac{f(x_{2})}{f^1(x_{2})}[/tex]

[tex]x_{3} = -1.96463563- \frac{f( -1.96463563)}{f^1( -1.96463563)}[/tex]

Following the same procedure as above we have

[tex]x_{3} = -1.96463560[/tex]

From the values of [tex]x_2[/tex] and [tex]x_3[/tex], it can be seen that there is no change in the first 6 decimal places, therefore, it is safe to say that the value of the negative root of the equation is approximately  -1.964636 to 6 decimal places.

Newton's method of approximation is one of the several ways of estimating values.

The approximated value of [tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex] to 6 decimal places is [tex]\mathbf{ -1.964636}[/tex]

The equation is given as:

[tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex]

Equate to 0

[tex]\mathbf{4 - x^2 = 0}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x^2 = 4}[/tex]

Take square roots of both sides

[tex]\mathbf{ x= \pm 2}[/tex]

So, the negative root is:

[tex]\mathbf{x = -2}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex] becomes [tex]\mathbf{f(x) = e^x - 4 + x^2 }[/tex]

Differentiate

[tex]\mathbf{f'(x) = e^x +2x }[/tex]

Using Newton's method of approximation, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{n+1} = x_n - \frac{f(x_n)}{f'(x_n)}}[/tex]

When x = -2, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{f'(-2) = e^{(-2)} +2(-2) = -3.86466471676}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{f(-2) = e^{-2} - 4 + (-2)^2 = 0.13533528323}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{1} = -2 - \frac{0.13533528323}{-3.86466471676}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{1} = -2 + \frac{0.13533528323}{3.86466471676}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{1} = -1.96498136}[/tex]

Repeat the above process for repeated x values.

We have:

[tex]\mathbf{x_{2} = -1.96463563}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{x_{3} = -1.96463560}[/tex]

Up till the 6th decimal places,

[tex]\mathbf{x_2 = x_3}[/tex]

Hence, the approximated value of [tex]\mathbf{e^x = 4 - x^2}[/tex] to 6 decimal places is [tex]\mathbf{ -1.964636}[/tex]

Answer:

The maximum one-day percentage loss = -1.15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let assume that with the  normal distribution, 95% of observations are smaller than 1.65 standard deviations above the mean.

Given that:

Cerra estimates the standard deviation of daily percentage changes of the euro to be 1 percent over the last 100 days.

if the expected percentage change of the euro tomorrow is 0.5 percent

and that Z value at 95% C.I level = 1.65

∵ The maximum one-day percentage loss = (expected percentage change -   Z-Value) × standard deviation

The maximum one-day percentage loss =  (0.5 - 1.65) ×  1

The maximum one-day percentage loss = -1.15  ×  1

The maximum one-day percentage loss = -1.15%

Answer:

13°

Step-by-step explanation:

The trigonometric ratio formula can be used in calculating the angle of elevation (x°) of the sun, as the person makes a right angle with the ground.

The height of the person would be the opposite length = 6 ft, the shadow of the person would be the adjacent length = 26 ft

Therefore, according to the trigonometric ratio formula, we would calculate angle of elevation (x°) as follows:

[tex] tan x = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} [/tex]

[tex] tan x = \frac{6}{26} [/tex]

[tex] tan x = 0.2308 [/tex]

x = tan-¹(0.2308)

x = 12.996

x ≈ 13° (to the nearest whole degree)

The angle of elevation of the sun = 13°

Answer:

The correct answer is option a.

a. 5( √3+ 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the angle changes from 45° to 60° in 10 minutes.

This situation can be represented as right angled triangles [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABC (in the starting when angle is 45°)and [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABD (after 10 minutes when the angle is 60°).

AB is the tower (A be its top and B be its base).

Now, we need to find the time to be taken to cover the distance D to B.

First of all, let us consider [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABC.

Using tangent property:

[tex]tan\theta =\dfrac{Perpendicular}{Base}\\\Rightarrow tan 45=\dfrac{AB}{BC}\\\Rightarrow 1=\dfrac{h}{BC}\\\Rightarrow h = BC[/tex]

Using tangent property in [tex]\triangle[/tex]ABD:

[tex]\Rightarrow tan 60=\dfrac{AB}{BD}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt3=\dfrac{h}{BD}\\\Rightarrow BD = \dfrac{h}{ \sqrt3}\ units[/tex]

Now distance traveled in 10 minutes, CD  = BC - BD

[tex]\Rightarrow h - \dfrac{h}{\sqrt3}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{(\sqrt3-1)h}{\sqrt3}[/tex]

[tex]Speed =\dfrac{Distance }{Time}[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{(\sqrt3-1)h}{10\sqrt3}[/tex]

Now, we can say that more distance to be traveled to reach the base of tower is BD i.e. '[tex]\bold{\dfrac{h}{\sqrt3}}[/tex]'

So, more time required = Distance left divided by Speed

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{\dfrac{h}{\sqrt3}}{\dfrac{(\sqrt3-1)h}{10\sqrt3}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{h\times 10\sqrt3}{\sqrt3(\sqrt3-1)h}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{10 (\sqrt3+1)}{(\sqrt3-1)(\sqrt3+1)} (\text{Rationalizing the denominator})\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{10 (\sqrt3+1)}{3-1}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{10 (\sqrt3+1)}{2}\\\Rightarrow 5(\sqrt3+1)}[/tex]

Answer:

A. Perimeter of segment = 49 in.

B. Area of segment = 52 in².

Step-by-step explanation:

Data obtained from the question include:

Radius (r) = 24 in.

Angle at the centre (θ) = 60°

Perimeter of segment =.?

Area of segment =.?

A. Determination of the perimeter of the segment.

Perimeter of segment = length of arc + length of chord

Length of arc = θ/360 x 2πr

Length of chord = 2r x sine (θ/2)

Pi (π) = 3.14

Length of arc = θ/360 x 2πr

Length of arc = 60/360 x 2 x 3.14 x 24

Lenght of arc = 25.12 in

Length of chord = 2r x sine (θ/2)

Length of chord = 2 x 24 x sine (60/2)

Length of chord = 24 in

Perimeter of segment = length of arc + length of chord

Perimeter of segment = 25.12 + 24

Perimeter of segment = 49.12 ≈ 49 in.

B. Determination of the area of the segment.

Area of segment = Area of sector – Area of triangle.

Area of sector = θ/360 x πr²

Area of triangle = r²/2 sine θ

Area of sector = θ/360 x πr²

Area of sector = 60/360 x 3.14 x 24²

Area of sector = 301.44 in²

Area of triangle = r²/2 sine θ

Area of triangle = 24²/2 x sine 60

Area of triangle = 249.42 in².

Area of segment = Area of sector – Area of triangle.

Area of segment = 301.44 – 249.42

Area of segment = 52.02 ≈ 52 in²

180 - 90 - 40 = 50

So m<1 = 50

Answer:

The expression that fits into the box is x¹⁵⁸

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the empty box be y

(x¹²)⁵ × (x⁻²)⁹ × y = (x⁴⁰)⁵

Here, we will apply the laws of indices.

The laws of indices gives the answer for the expressions

1) xᵏ × xˢ = xᵏ⁺ˢ

2) xᵏ ÷ xˢ = xᵏ⁻ˢ

3) (xᵏ)ˢ = xᵏ•ˢ

So,

(x¹²)⁵ = x⁶⁰

(x⁻²)⁹ = x⁻¹⁸

(x⁴⁰)⁵ = x²⁰⁰

(x¹²)⁵ × (x⁻²)⁹ × y = (x⁴⁰)⁵

Becomes

x⁶⁰ × x⁻¹⁸ × y = x²⁰⁰

x⁶⁰⁻¹⁸ × y = x²⁰⁰

x⁴² × y = x²⁰⁰

y = x²⁰⁰ ÷ x⁴²

y = x²⁰⁰⁻⁴² = x¹⁵⁸

Answer:

0.8390

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

Z score = (Value-mean)/standard deviation

Z score = (150.2-160.5)/10.4

Z score = -0.9904.

P(x>Z) = 1- P(x<Z)

From the Z table,

P(x<Z) = 0.16099

Therefore,

P(x>Z) = 1-0.16099

P(x>Z) = 0.8390

Hence the probability that a person weighs more than 150.2 pounds = 0.8390

Answer:

0.38

Step-by-step explanation:

The area under the probability density curve is equal to 1.

The width of the rectangle is 2, so the height of the rectangle must be ½.

The probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44 is therefore:

P = ½ (1.44 − 0.68)

P = 0.38

Using the uniform distribution, it is found that there is a 0.38 = 38% probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44.

-----------------------

Uniform probability distribution:

[tex]P(c \leq X \leq d) = \frac{d - c}{b - a}[/tex]

In this problem:

The probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44 is:

[tex]P(0.68 \leq X \leq 1.44) = \frac{1.44 - 0.68}{2 - 0} = 0.38[/tex]

0.38 = 38% probability that X is between 0.68 and 1.44.

Answer: $34.18

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of the Jacket = $x and

The cost of the sweater. = $y

Now total price. = $71.55.

So, $x + $y. = $71.55 -- 1

From the second statements, the price of the sweater was $3.19 less than the price of the jacket. Transforming that into equation

y = ( x - $3.19 )

Now substitute for y in the equation (1) above.

x + ( x - 3.19 ) = 71.55

Now solve the equation

x + x - 3.19 = 71.55

2x - 3.19. = 71.55

2x = 71.55 + 3.19

2x. = 74.74

x = 74.74/2

= $37.37. cost of the jacket

Now to determine the cost of the sweater,

$71.55 - $37.37 = $34.18

The cost of the sweater = $34.18.

Answer:

y = -(1/2)x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2Y - X = -2

Add x to both sides:

-2Y = X - 2

Divide both sides by -2:

Y = -(1/2)x+1

You could also use the shortcuts:

For Ay+Bx=C, the slope is -B/A and the y-intercept is C/A.

Slope = -B/A = -(-1)/(-2) = 1/-2 = -(1/2)

Y-intercept = C/A = (-2)/(-2) = 1

y = mx + b ---> y = -(1/2)x + 1

Answer:

y = -1/2x +1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of a line is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

-2y -x = -2

Solve for y

Add x to each side

-2y = x-2

Divide by -2

[tex]$ 225 - C = 212 $[/tex]

[tex]C = 225 - 212[/tex]

[tex]C = \$13[/tex]

Substitute the value of C into eq. 2

[tex]$ A = \frac{75 - 3(13)}{2} $[/tex]

[tex]$ A = \frac{75 - 39}{2} $[/tex]

[tex]A = \$18[/tex]

Therefore, the price of the​ adult's ticket is $18 and the price of a​ child's ticket is $13

Answer:  B) 10 three-point questions and 14 five-point questions

Step-by-step explanation:

x represents three-point questions

y represents five-point questions

3x + 5y = 100  →  1(3x + 5y = 100)  =  3x + 5y = 100

 x  +  y  = 24   → -3(x  +  y  = 24)   = -3x  -3y  = -72

                                                                  2y = 28

                                                                    y = 14  (five-point questions)

x +  y = 24

x + 14 = 24

     x = 10  (three-point questions)
