Carol ran a 100 meter race in 13. 4 seconds. But, it was wrongly
measured as 14.1 seconds. What is the percent error involved in the
measurement?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Approximately 5.22%

========================================================

Work Shown:

A = true value = 13.4 seconds

B = measured value (erroneous value) = 14.1 seconds

C = percent error

C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%

C = [ (14.1-13.4)/(13.4) ] * 100%

C = 0.0522 * 100%

C = 5.22%

This value is approximate.

Determine the values of xfor which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001.(Enter your answer using interval notation. Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

The values of x for which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001 is 0 < x < 0.3936.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

Determine the values of x for which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001. f(x) = e^x ≈ 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3!, x < 0

The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:

Given:

f(x) = e^x ≈ 1 + x + x²/2! + x³/3!, x < 0 …………….. (1)

[tex]R_{3}[/tex] = (x) = (e^z /4!)x^4

Since the aim is [tex]R_{3}[/tex](x) < 0.001, this implies that:

(e^z /4!)x^4 < 0.0001 ………………………………….. (2)

Multiply both sided of equation (2) by (1), we have:

e^4x^4 < 0.024 ……………………….......……………. (4)

Taking 4th root of both sided of equation (4), we have:

|xe^(z/4) < 0.3936 ……………………..........…………(5)

Dividing both sides of equation (5) by e^(z/4) gives us:

|x| < 0.3936 / e^(z/4) ……………….................…… (6)

In equation (6), when z > 0, e^(z/4) > 1. Therefore, we have:

|x| < 0.3936 -----> 0 < x < 0.3936

Therefore, the values of x for which the function can be replaced by the Taylor polynomial if the error cannot exceed 0.001 is 0 < x < 0.3936.

Joe drinks some milk every day. The graph shows the proportional

Find the amount of milk he drinks in 7 days.

Answers

Answer:  14 liters

====================================

Explanation:

Draw a vertical line up from x = 7 until you reach the diagonal red line. Mark point P at this location. Then from point P, move horizontally until you reach the y axis. You should get to y = 14.

See the diagram below.

The equation of this red line is y = 2x. Whatever the input x is, we double it to get y. So if x = 7, then y = 2x = 2*7 = 14

This means that Joe drinks 14 liters of milk in 7 days. Or you could say his rate is 14 liters per week.

Answer:

The correct answer is 14 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

When you look at the graph you can count the grid squares. In one day Joe drinks 2 liters of milk. So 7 times 2 is 14. That is your answer

A taxi firm charges a fixed cost of $10 together with a variable cost of $3 per mile. (a) Work out the average cost per mile for a journey of 4 miles. (b) Work out the minimum distance travelled if the average cost per mile is to be less than $3.25

Answers

Answer:

$5.5 per mile

40 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Fixed cost = $10

Variable cost = $3

For a journey of 4 miles ;

Cost = fixed cost + Variable Cost

Cost = $10 + $3x

x = number of miles

Cost = $10 + $3(4)

Cost = $10 + $12 = $22

Average cost per mile for a journey of 4 miles

Cost / number of miles

$22 / 4 = $5.5 per mile

Minimum distance if average per mile is to be less Than 3.25

$3.25 = (10 + 3x) / x

3.25x = 10 + 3x

3.25x - 3x = 10

0.25x = 10

x = 10 / 0.25

x = 40 miles

40 and 136

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the 2 numbers = 5 : 17 = 5x : 17x ( x is a multiplier )

One number is 96 more than the other then

17x = 5x + 96 ( subtract 5x from both sides )

12x = 96 ( divide both sides by 12 )

x = 8 , then

5x = 5 × 8 = 40

17x = 17 × 8 = 136

The 2 numbers are 40 and 136

can anyone help me here asapp,, I am in this question for nearly an hour

Answers

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Let side AB equal x. Since triangle ABC is equilateral, sides AB, BC, and Ac are all the same length, x. In any isosceles triangle(equilateral is a type of isosceles triangle) the median is the same as the altitude and angle bisector. This means we can say that AD is also a median. A median splits a side into two equal sections, so we can say BD = DC = x / 2. We are given that DC = CE, so we can also say CE = DC = x / 2. Now, we can use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of AD. So we get the equation:

AB^2 - BD^2 = AD^2

We have the values of AB and BD, so we can substitute them and solve for AD:

x^2 - (x/2)^2 = AD^2

x^2 - x^2 / 4 = AD^2

AD^2 = 3x^2 / 4

AD = x√3 / 2

DE is equal to the sum of DC and CE because of segment addition postulate, so we can say DE = DC + CE = x / 2 + x/ 2 = x. We can again use the pythagorean theorem to find the length of AE:

AD^2 + DE^2 = AE^2

(x√3 / 2)^2 + x^2 = AE^2

3x^2 / 4 + x^2 = AE^2

AE^2 = 7x^2 / 4

AE = x√7 / 2

Now, we know(from before) that AE squared is 7x^2 / 4. We can say EC squared is x^2 / 4 because EC is x / 2 and x / 2 squared is x^2 / 4. We can also notice that AE squared is 7 times EC squared because 7x^2 / 4 = 7 * x^2 / 4

Therefore, we can come to the conclusion AE^2 = 7 EC^2

Do you think there’s sufficient evidence in the article to conclude that bright red leaves in the fall help protect the trees in the winter? Explain your answer.

Answers

From online research, the article is;

As days get shorter and colder in the autumn, chlorophyll molecules break down. Leaves quickly lose their green color. Some leaves begin to look yellow or orange because they still contain pigments called carotenoids. One such pigment, carotene, gives carrots their bright-orange color.

But red is special. This brilliant color appears only because the leaves of some plants, including maples, actually produce new pigments, called anthocyanins.

That’s a strange thing for a plant to do without a reason, says Bill Hoch of the University of Wisconsin in Madison. Why? Because it takes a lot of energy to make anthocyanins.

Why red?

To figure out the purpose of the red pigment, Hoch and his coworkers bred mutant plants that can’t make anthocyanins and compared them with plants that do make anthocyanins. They found that plants that can make red pigments continue to absorb nutrients from their leaves long after the mutant plants have stopped.

This study and others suggest that anthocyanins work like a sunscreen. When chlorophyll breaks down, a plant’s leaves become vulnerable to the sun’s harsh rays. By turning red, plants protect themselves from sun damage. They can continue to take nutrients out of their dying leaves. These reserves help the plants stay healthy through the winter.

The more anthocyanins a plant produces, the redder its leaves become. This explains why colors vary from year to year, and even from tree to tree. Stressful conditions, such as drought and disease, often make a season redder.

Now, Hoch is breeding plants for a new set of experiments. He wants to find out whether turning red helps plants survive cold weather.

“There’s a clear correlation between environments that get colder in the fall and the amount of red produced,” he says. “Red maples turn bright red in Wisconsin. In Florida, they don’t turn nearly as bright.”

More protection

Elsewhere, scientists are looking at anthocyanins in other ways. A recent study in Greece, for instance, found that as leaves grow redder, insects eat them less. On the basis of this observation, some scientists argue that red pigments defend a plant against bugs.

Leaves may turn red in the autumn to protect themselves from the sun’s ultraviolet rays.

J. Miller

Hoch rejects that theory, but Lee thinks that it might make sense. He points out that red leaves contain less nitrogen than green ones do. “It may actually be that insects avoid red leaves because they’re less nutritious,” Lee says.

However, “it’s pretty confusing at this point,” Lee admits. “People debate back and forth.”

To settle the debate, scientists will need to look at more species under more conditions, Lee says. So, he’s now researching leafy plants rather than trees. He’s especially interested in tropical plants, whose leaves turn red when they’re young rather than old.

Answer:

As seen in the Explanation, different people have given reasons why bright red leaves in the fall help protect the trees in the winter. Thus, there is sufficient evidence to conclude that bright red leaves in the fall help protect the trees in the winter.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the article, we can see that Hoch and his coworkers carried out an experiment on mutants and they discovered that plants that can make red pigments tend to continue absorbing nutrients from their leaves a long time after the mutant plants have stopped.

This study and other believe that plants make anthocyanins which acts as a kind of sunscreen to the plants. They also discovered that by the plants turning red, they protect themselves from sun damage

Also, we see that some scientists in Greece found out that as leaves grow redder, insects eat them less and they argued that red pigments defend a plant against bugs and as such Leaves may turn red in the autumn to protect themselves from the sun’s ultraviolet rays.

My Answer: One study said that anthocyanins are pigments that make leaves turn red. And some trees don’t absorb as many nutrients as trees with red leaves. That particular study focused on trees that don’t produce anthocyanins. So i believe there's some evidence, but not a definitive conclusion.

Edmentum Answer: There’s some evidence, but not a definitive conclusion. One study focused on trees that don’t produce anthocyanins. Anthocyanins are pigments that make leaves turn red. The study said that these trees don’t absorb as many nutrients as trees with red leaves.

Another study found that insects are generally not inclined to eat red leaves on trees. There seems to be a trend that suggests that red leaves are important for the trees’ survival in the fall. This trend needs to be validated by conducting more tests.
