what is the value of this expression when a = 2 and b = -3 ? a^3 - b^3 / 5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Length the length and breadth of the rectangle be x and y.

Area of the rectangle A = Length * breadth

Perimeter P = 2(Length + Breadth)

A = xy and P = 2(x+y)

If the area of the rectangle is 512m², then 512 = xy

x = 512/y

Substituting x = 512/y into the formula for calculating the perimeter;

P = 2(512/y + y)

P = 1024/y + 2y

To get the value of y, we will set dP/dy to zero and solve.

dP/dy = -1024y⁻² + 2

-1024y⁻² + 2 = 0

-1024y⁻² = -2

512y⁻² = 1

y⁻² = 1/512

1/y² = 1/512

y²  = 512

y = √512 m

On testing for minimum, we must know that the perimeter is at the minimum when y = √512

From xy = 512

x(√512) = 512

x = 512/√512

On rationalizing, x = 512/√512 * √512 /√512

x = 512√512 /512

x = √512 m

Hence, the dimensions of a rectangle is √512 m  by √512 m

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]

Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4 [P(A or B)] = 9 / 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of balls = 1 to 19

Find:

Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4

Computation:

Total even number = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18

Probability to get even number P(A) = 9 / 19

Probability to get 4 number P(B) = 1 / 19

P(A and B) = 1 / 19 (4 common)

Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4 [P(A or B)]

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) -P(A and B)

P(A or B) = [9 / 19] + [1 / 19] - [1 / 19]

Probability ball is an even numbered ball or a 4 [P(A or B)] = 9 / 19

Answer:

a) percentage of the employees that will experience lost-time accidents in both years = 1.2%

b) percentage of the employees that will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period = 10.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

given

percentage of lost time accident last year

P(L) = 8% = 0.08 of the employees

percentage of lost time accident current year

P(C) = 4% = 0.04 of the employees

P(C/L) = 15% = 0.15

using the probability

P(L ∩ C) = P(C/L) × P(L)

= 0.08 × 0.15 = 0.012 = 1.2%

percentage of the employees will experience lost-time accidents in both years = 1.2%

b) Using the probability of the event

P(L ∪ C) = P(L) + P(C) - P(L ∩ C)

= 0.08 + 0.04 -0.012 = 0.108 = 10.8%

percentage of the employees will suffer at least one lost-time accident over the two-year period = 10.8%

Answer:

(C) Translation of 2 units right, 1 up, and a reflection over the y-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ideally, we are looking for a reflection of the red image over the y-axis, and to do that, we can see how we need to move the black image.

In order for points Q and Q' to be a reflection of each other, they need to have the same y value, and be the exact same distance from the y axis, so the point that Q has to be at is (-1,-3).

Q is right now at (-3,-4) so we can translate this.

To get from -3 to -1 in the x-axis, we go right by 2 units.

To get from -4 to -3 in the y-axis, we go up one unit.

Now, if we reflect it, the triangles will be the same.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you study the images, it is clear that the black triangle has to be reflected over the y-axis to face the same direction as the red triangle. So, choice A is eliminated.

Once you reflect the black triangle across the y-axis, you have points at (-1, -1), (3, -4), and (3, -2). Meanwhile, the red triangle's coordinates are at (-3, 0), (1, -3), and (1, -1). From these points, you can tell that the x-values differ by 2 units and the y-values differ by 1 unit.

All of these conditions match the ones put forth in option C, so that is your answer.

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:

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

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.

38 + 32 = 70

70 + 34 = 104

104 + 27 = 131

131 + 9 = 140

Now we need to find out the amount of Discovery, Challenger, and Endeavour missions.

38 + 9 + 34 = 81

Now we can make the following fraction,

81/140

This is already in simplest form.

Thus,

the answer is 81/140.

Hope this helps :)
