Use Newton's method to approximate the indicated root of the equation correct to six decimal places. The negative root of ex = 4 − x2
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:
Standard form: [tex]12x+3y-2=0[/tex]
A = 12, B = 3 and C = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The equation:
[tex]y= -4x + \dfrac{2}3[/tex]
To find:
The standard form of given equation and find A, B and C.
Solution:
First of all, let us write the standard form of an equation.
Standard form of an equation is represented as:
[tex]Ax+By+C=0[/tex]
A is the coefficient of x and can be positive or negative.
B is the coefficient of y and can be positive or negative.
C can also be positive or negative.
Now, let us consider the given equation:
[tex]y= -4x + \dfrac{2}3[/tex]
Multiplying the whole equation with 3 first:
[tex]3 \times y= 3 \times -4x + 3 \times \dfrac{2}3\\\Rightarrow 3y=-12x+2[/tex]
Now, let us take all the terms on one side:

An airplane descends during the last hour of it's flight to prepare for landing. It's altitude changes at an average of -0.15 km per minute for those 60 minutes. (What is the product) How does the elevation of the airplane change in that hour? The elevation of the airplane _________ by ______ km. increases 60 decreases 9 0.15
WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST, THANKS AND FIVE STARS
Answer:
The elevation of the airplane decreases by 9 km.
Step-by-step explanation:
We use the distance-rate-time formula: d = rt.
Here, the rate is r = 0.15 km/min and the time is t = 60 min. Simply plug these into the formula:
d = rt
d = 0.15 * 60 = 9 km
So, the change in elevation in the last 60 minutes is 9 km. However, note that the rate is negative (-0.15 km/min), which means that the elevation actually is decreasing.
Thus, the answer is: the elevation of the airplane decreases by 9 km.

For each of the following, state the equation of a perpendicular line that passes through (0, 0). Then using the slope of the new equation, find x if the point P(x, 4) lies on the new line. y=3x-1 y=1/4 x+2
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) y=3x-1
The standard equation of a line is given by:
y = mx + c
Where m is the slope of the line and c is the intercept on the y axis.
Given that y=3x-1, comparing with the standard equation of a line, the slope (m) = 3, Two lines with slope a and b are perpendicular if the product of their slope is -1 i.e. ab = -1. Let the line perpendicular to y=3x-1 be d, to get the slope of the perpendicular line, we use:
3 × d = -1
d = -1/3
To find the equation of the perpendicular line passing through (0,0), we use:
[tex]y-y_1=d(x-x_1)\\d\ is\ the \ slope:\\y-0=-\frac{1}{3} (x-0)\\y=-\frac{1}{3}x[/tex]
To find x if the point P(x, 4) lies on the new line, insert y = 4 and find x:
[tex]y=-\frac{1}{3}x\\ 4=-\frac{1}{3}x\\-x=12\\x=-12[/tex]
b) y=1/4 x+2
Given that y=1/4 x+2, comparing with the standard equation of a line, the slope (m) = 1/4. Let the line perpendicular to y=1/4 x+2 be f, to get the slope of the perpendicular line, we use:
1/4 × f = -1
f = -4
To find the equation of the perpendicular line passing through (0,0), we use:
[tex]y-y_1=f(x-x_1)\\f\ is\ the \ slope:\\y-0=-4 (x-0)\\y=-4x[/tex]
To find x if the point P(x, 4) lies on the new line, insert y = 4 and find x:
[tex]y=-4}x\\ 4=-4x\\x=-1[/tex]
Use all the information below to find the missing x-value for the point that is on this line. m = - 1 / 3 b = 7 ( x, 4 )
Answer:
[tex]\boxed{x = 9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
m = -1/3
b = 7
And y = 4 (Given)
Putting all of the givens in [tex]y = mx+b[/tex] to solve for x
=> 4 = (-1/3) x + 7
Subtracting 7 to both sides
=> 4-7 = (-1/3) x
=> -3 = (-1/3) x
Multiplying both sides by -3
=> -3 * -3 = x
=> 9 = x
OR
=> x = 9
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
m = -1/3
b = 7
Using slope-intercept form:
y = mx + b
m is slope, b is y-intercept.
y = -1/3x + 7
Solve for x:
Plug y as 4
4 = 1/3x + 7
Subtract 7 on both sides.
-3 = -1/3x
Multiply both sides by -3.
9 = x

X+y = 25.5....equation one
2.2x +7.3y = 25.5(5.7)
2.2x +7.3y = 145.35.....equation two
X+y = 25.5
2.2x +7.3y = 145.35
Solving simultaneously
X= 25.5-y
Substituting value of X into equation two
2.2(25.5-y) + 7.3y = 145.35
56.1 -2.2y +7.3y = 145.35
5.1y = 145.35-56.1
5.1y = 89.25
Y= 89.25/5.1
Y= 17.5
X= 25.5-y
X= 25.5-17.5
X= 8

Answer:
7/44
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the total number of presidents.
2 + 7 + 13 + 12 + 7 + 3 = 44
There were 7 presidents that were 45-49 when elected. Divide this number by the total number of presidents to find the fraction.
7/44 ≈ 0.159
Part A Each time you press F9 on your keyboard, you see an alternate life for Jacob, with his status for each age range shown as either alive or dead. If the dead were first to appear for the age range of 75 to 76, for example, this would mean that Jacob died between the ages of 75 and 76, or that he lived to be 75 years old. Press F9 on your keyboard five times and see how long Jacob lives in each of his alternate lives. How long did Jacob live each time? Part B The rest of the potential clients are similar to Jacob, but since they’ve already lived parts of their lives, their status will always be alive for the age ranges that they’ve already lived. For example, Carol is 44 years old, so no matter how many times you press F9 on your keyboard, Carol’s status will always be alive for all the age ranges up to 43–44. Starting with the age range of 44–45, however, there is the possibility that Carol’s status will be dead. Press F9 on your keyboard five more times and see how long Carol lives in each of her alternate lives. Remember that she will always live to be at least 44 years old, since she is already 44 years old. How long did Carol live each time? Part C Now you will find the percent survival of each of your eight clients to the end of his or her policy using the simulation in the spreadsheet. For each potential client, you will see whether he or she would be alive at the end of his or her policy. The cells in the spreadsheet that you should look at to determine this are highlighted in yellow. Next, go to the worksheet labeled Task 2b and record either alive or dead for the first trial. Once you do this, the All column will say yes if all the clients were alive at the end of their policies or no if all the clients were not alive at the end of their policies. Were all the clients alive at the end of their policies in the first trial? Part D Next, go back to the Task 2a worksheet, press F9, and repeat this process until you have recorded 20 trials in the Task 2b worksheet. In the Percent Survived row at the bottom of the table on the Task 2b worksheet, it will show the percentage of times each client survived to the end of his or her policy, and it will also show the percentage of times that all of the clients survived to the end of their respective policies. Check to see whether these percentages are in line with the probabilities that you calculated in questions 1 through 9 in Task 1. Now save your spreadsheet and submit it to your teacher using the drop box. Are your probabilities from the simulation close to the probabilities you originally calculated?

The interquartile range (IQR) of a data set can be used to identify outliers because data values that are ▼ less than equal to greater than ▼ IQR Upper Q 3 minus 1.5 (IQR )Upper Q 3 plus IQR Upper Q 3 plus 1.5 (IQR )or ▼ less than equal to greater than ▼ IQR Upper Q 1 plus 1.5 (IQR )Upper Q 1 minus IQR Upper Q 1 minus 1.5 (IQR )are considered outliers.
Answer:
- greater than Upper Q 3 plus 1.5 (IQR)
- less than Upper Q 1 minus 1.5 (IQR)
Step-by-step explanation:
To identify outliers the interquartile range of the dataset can be used
Outliers can be identified as data values that are
- greater than Upper Q 3 plus 1.5 (IQR)
- less than Upper Q 1 minus 1.5 (IQR)
Using the interquartile range concept, it is found that:
The interquartile range (IQR) of a data set can be used to identify outliers because data values that are 1.5IQR less than Q1 and 1.5IQR more than Q3 and considered outliers.
----------------------------
The interquartile range of a data-set is composed by values between the 25th percentile(Q1) and the 75th percentile(Q3).It's length is: [tex]IQR = Q3 - Q1[/tex]Values that are more than 1.5IQR from the quartiles are considered outliers, that is:[tex]v < Q1 - 1.5IQR[/tex] or [tex]v > Q3 + 1.5IQR[/tex]
Thus:
The interquartile range (IQR) of a data set can be used to identify outliers because data values that are 1.5IQR less than Q1 and 1.5IQR more than Q3 and considered outliers.

A rectangular waterbed is 7 ft long 5 ft wide and 1 ft tall
How many gallons of water are needed to fill the waterbed?
Assume i gallon is 013 cu ft. Round to the nearest whole galon
Hey there! I'm happy to help!
We want to find the volume of this rectangular waterbed. This means the amount of space it takes up. To find the volume of a rectangular prism, you just multiply together the three side lengths.
7×5×1=35 cubic feet
Now, we need to see how many gallons fit into 35 cubic feet. We see that one gallon is equal to 0.13 cubic feet. So, we can set up a proportion to find how many gallons are needed. We will use g to represent our missing number of gallons.
[tex]\frac{gallons}{cubic feet} = \frac{1}{0.13} =\frac{g}{35}[/tex]
In a proportion, the products of the diagonal numbers are equal. This means that 35, which is 1 multiplied by 35, is equal to 0.13g, which is from multiplying 0.13 by the g.
0.13g=35
We divide both sides by 0.13/
g≈269.23
When rounded to the nearest whole gallon, we will need 269 gallons of water to fill the waterbed.
I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the waterbed is rectangular, its volume would be determined by applying the formula for determining the volume of a cuboid which is expressed as
Volume = length × width × height
Therefore,
Volume of waterbed = 7 × 5 × 1 = 35 cubic feet
1 US gallon = 0.133680556 cubic feet
Therefore, converting 35cubic feet to gallons, it becomes
35/0.133680556 = 261.81818094772 gallons
Rounding up to whole gallon, it becomes 262 gallons

What is Quadratic Equation?
A quadratic equation is a second-order polynomial equation in a single variable x , ax²+ bx + c = 0. with a ≠ 0. Because it is a second-order polynomial equation, the fundamental theorem of algebra guarantees that it has at least one solution. The solution may be real or complex.
Given data ,
The polynomial function is of second degree with zeros of -7 and 6
So , x = -7 and x = 6
Let the function be f ( x ) where f ( x ) = ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )
Now , as x tends to infinity , the negative makes no such difference on the zeros of the function f ( x ) ,
And , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )
Therefore , to find the polynomial function , f ( x ) = - ( x + 7 ) ( x - 6 )
f ( x ) = - [ x² - 6 x + 7 x - 42 ]
= - [ x² + x - 42 ]
= - x ² - x + 42
Hence , the polynomial function f ( x ) = - x ² - x + 42

The half-life of a radioactive isotope is the time it takes for a quantity of the Isotope to be reduced to half its initial mass. Starting with 210 grams of a
radioactive isotope, how much will be left after 6 half-lives?
Round your answer to the nearest gram
Answer:
after 6 half lives: 210(1/2)^6= 3.28125
Step-by-step explanation:
isotope to be reduced to half its initial mass at first:
210(1/2)=105 half it is original weight
after second life: 210(1/2)^2=105(1/2)=52.5
after third : 210(1/2)^3=52.5/2=26.25
after fourth : 26.25/2=12.125
after fifth : 13.125/2
after 6 half lives: 210(1/2)^6= 3.28125
Use Bayes' theorem to find the indicated probability 5.8% of a population is infected with a certain disease. There is a test for the disease, however the test is not completely accurate. 93.9% of those who have the disease test positive. However 4.1% of those who do not have the disease also test positive (false positives). A person is randomly selected and tested for the disease. What is the probability that the person has the disease given that the test result is positive?
a. 0.905
b. 0.585
c. 0.038
d. 0.475
Answer:
b. 0.585
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Bayes' theorem:
[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{P(B|A)*P(A)}{P(B)}[/tex]
Let A = Person is infected, and B = Person tested positive. Then:
P(B|A) = 93.9%
P(A) = 5.8%
P(B) = P(infected and positive) + P(not infected and positive)
[tex]P(B) = 0.058*0.939+(1-0.058)*0.041\\P(B)=0.09308[/tex]
Therefore, the probability that a person has the disease given that the test result is positive, P(A|B), is:
[tex]P(A|B)=\frac{0.939*0.058}{0.09308}\\P(A|B)=0.585[/tex]
The probability is 0.585.
What is the next term of the geometric sequence? 1, 2, 4, 8, 16,
Answer: 32
Step-by-step explanation:
explain square roots
Answer:A square root of a number is a value that, when multiplied by itself, gives the number. Example: 4 × 4 = 16, so a square root of 16 is 4. Note that (−4) × (−4) = 16 too, so −4 is also a square root of 16. The symbol is √ which always means the positive square root. Example: √36 = 6 (because 6 x 6 = 36)

What is the total amount of 2/5+5/3+9/3 and the lowest common denominator?
The lowest common denominator is lcm(5, 3), which is 15.
The sum of 2/5 + 5/3 + 9/3 is 6/15 + 25/15 + 45/15, which is 76/15 or [tex]5\frac{1}{15}[/tex].
Scores made on a certain aptitude test by nursing students are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 500 and a variance of 10,000. If a person is about to take the test what is the probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more?
Answer:
0.0668 or 6.68%
Step-by-step explanation:
Variance (V) = 10,000
Standard deviation (σ) = √V= 100
Mean score (μ) = 500
The z-score for any test score X is:
[tex]z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
For X = 650:
[tex]z=\frac{650-500}{100}\\z=1.5[/tex]
A z-score of 1.5 is equivalent to the 93.32nd percentile of a normal distribution. Therefore, the probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more is:
[tex]P(X\geq 650)=1-P(X\leq 650)\\P(X\geq 650)=1-0.9332\\P(X\geq 650)=0.0668=6.68\%[/tex]
The probability is 0.0668 or 6.68%
The probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more is 0.0668.
Let X = Scores made on a certain aptitude test by nursing students
X follows normal distribution with mean = 500 and variance of 10,000.
So, standard deviation = [tex]\sqrt{10000}=100[/tex].
z score of 650 is = [tex]\frac{\left(650-500\right)}{100}=1.5[/tex].
The probability that he or she will make a score of 650 or more is:
[tex]P(X\geq 650)\\=P(z\geq 1.5)\\=1-P(z<1.5)\\=1-0.9332\\=0.0668[/tex]
