what is the best estimate of 45 percent of 76

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

In order of improvement:

383434.2 (actual value)

Step-by-step explanation:

In my engineering experience, a method of estimating should satisfy two requirements:

it should be relatively easy to accomplish mentallyit should provide a means of estimating the error in the estimate

__

Multiplication and division by 2 are generally easy to perform mentally.

We note that 45% is about 50%.

  50% of 76 is 76/2 = 38 . . . a good starting estimate

45% is down 5% from 50%, so the actual value will be 5/50 = 10% lower than this first estimate

A good second estimate is 38 -0.10(40) = 34.

A better estimate is 38 -3.8 = 34.2, which is the actual value of the expression.

_____

Alternate approach

You could also transform the problem to 76% of 45, which is about 3/4 of 44, or about 33. Figuring the error adjustment on this approach is somewhat more difficult, as it is factors of 1/75 and 1/44 too low. 1 part in 44 is not too difficult to figure, as it is 33/44 = 3/4, so a better estimate is 33.75. It takes a calculator to figure 1 part in 75 of this, which is 0.45. Adding that amount gets you to the actual value of 34.2.

Is 4 a solution to the equation 5+x=10? Explain.

Answers

Answer:no

Step-by-step explanation:

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  no, it makes the equation false

Step-by-step explanation:

A "solution" is a value of x that makes the equation true. When we use 4 in place of x here, we get ...

  5 + 4 = 10

  9 = 10 . . . . . . . a false statement

The value x=4 does not make the equation true, so it is not a solution.

Find a point on the ellipsoid x2+y2+4z2=36x2+y2+4z2=36 where the tangent plane is perpendicular to the line with parametric equations

Answers

Answer:

A point on the ellipsoid is (-4,2,2) or (4,-2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of ellipsoid f(x,y,z) :[tex]x^2+y^2+4z^2=36[/tex]

Parametric equations:

x=-4t-1

y=2t+1

z=8t+3

Finding the gradient of function

[tex]\nabla f(x,y,z)=<\frac{\partial{f}}{\partial{x}},\frac{\partial{f}}{\partial{y}},\frac{\partial{f}}{\partial{z}}>\\\nabla f(x,y,z)=<2x,-2y,8x>[/tex]

So, The directions vectors=(-4,2,8)

Now the line is perpendicular to plane when direction vector is parallel to the normal vector of line

[tex]\nablaf(x,y,z)=(2x,2y,8z)=\lambda(-4,2,8)[/tex]

So, [tex]2x=-4\lambda[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow x=-2\lambda[/tex]

[tex]2y=2\lambda\\\Rightarrow y=\lambda\\8z=8\lambda\\\Rightarrow z=\lambda[/tex]

Substitute the value of x , y and z in the ellipsoid equation

[tex](2\lambda)^2+(\lambda)^2+4(\lambda)^2=36\\9(\lambda)^2=36\\\lambda^2=4\\\lambda=\pm 2[/tex]

With [tex]\lambda = 2[/tex]

x=-2(2)=-4

y=2

z=2

With[tex]\lambda =- 2[/tex]

x=-2(-2)=4

y=-2

z=-2

Hence a point on the ellipsoid is (-4,2,2) or (4,-2,-2)

A solid is formed by rotating the region bounded by the curve y = e^-3x/2 and the x axis between x=0 and x=1 around the xaxis. The volume of this solid is pi/3 * (1 - e^-3). Assuming the solid has constant density delta, find x and y.
x=
y =

Answers

Answer:

x = .28

y = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Voume of disk = pi *r^2 = pi * e^-3x deltax

x = integal 0 to 1 of x * delta*pi*e^-3x deltax / mass = (delta*pi) integal 0 to 1 of x * e^-3x deltax/mass = (delta*pi)0.08898/mass

mass = sigma *(volume)=delta(pi/3*(1-e^-3)) =delta(.995)

x = (delta*pi)0.08898/delta(.995) = .28

by symmetry y=0

A solid is formed by rotating the region bounded by the curve y = e^-3x/2 and the x axis between x=0 and x=1 around the x axis.  Then value of x is 0.28 and y is 0.

What is Volume?

Volume is defined as the space occupied within the boundaries of an object in three-dimensional space.

The volume of disk is given by formula πr²

Volume of disk =  πr²= π × e⁻³ˣ Δx

[tex]x=\int\limits^0_1 {x} \, \pi e^{-3x} dx[/tex]

= (delta.π) integal 0 to 1 of x × e⁻³ˣ delta x/mass

= (delta. π) 0.08898/mass

mass = sigma ×(volume)=delta( π/3*(1-e⁻³)) =delta(0.995)

x = (delta*π)0.08898/delta(0.995) = 0.28

x=0.28

and by symmetry y=0

Hence the value of x is 0.28 and value of y is 0.

(addition property of equality)

*cancel out -5 on the left hand side, and isolate it from x by adding +5 on each side*

__________________________

3x = -2x + 10

+2x +2x

(addition property of equality)

*cancel out the negative 2x, and isolate it from the constant term on the right hand side by adding 2x on both sides*

If you want to test this solution, substitute this back into the equation.

x = 2 → 3x - 5 = -2x + 5. 3(2) - 5 = -2(2) + 5 = 6 - 5 = -4 + 5 = 1 = 1

An airplane maintaining a constant airspeed takes as long to travel 925 mi with wind as it does to travel 775 mi against the wind. If the wind is blowing at 15 mph, what is the rate of the plane in still air

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  170 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the airplane can be represented by s. The travel time will be ...

  time = distance/speed

  925/(s +15) = 775/(s -15)

  925(s -15) = 775(s +15)

  150s = 25500 . . . . . . . . . add 13875-775s

  s = 170

The rate of the plane in still air is 170 mph.

What types of programs are used? Are there free websites or apps that might be helpful? What skills or tools will you need to call upon to create this digital art masterpiece?Make a list of the possible software tools and options that you find in your research that are available to help you create your digital art piece. Identify the program(s) or tool(s) that you plan to use for this lab.Step 3: Make a PlanNext, map out a loose plan for your digital art. This can be as simple as typing up some notes in a word processing document using bullet points to create a plan of action for how you will approach this digital creation.Some questions to consider:How will you capture the essence of the physical art digitally?What are some key aspects that you need to pay attention to?What components of the physical art are you apprehensive to re-create digitally?Are there any aspects of the physical art that you want to change when you re-create it digitally?It is important to note that while you should be able to recognize and see the resemblance between the physical art piece that you choose and your digital re-creation, you do have some creative ownership in this processafter all, youre the artist! That means that you have the creative freedom to shift or slightly change some aspects of the physical art that you want to while re-creating it digitally in order to truly make it your own!After exploring the possible programs or tools available to you to create your digital art and mapping out a plan, it is time to get started!Step 4: Create!Using whatever program or tools you decided on, jump right in to re-creating your physical piece of art in a digital medium.While you are creating your digital art, keep in mind that you will be submitting the photos of your physical piece of art along with your digital re-creation, and the resemblance should be evident. It is certainly okay for various details to be different based on your creative ideas and instincts, but make sure that the most defining and dominant features of the original piece of physical art are evident in your digital re-creation.Step 5: ReflectThe final piece in this lab is to compose a brief reflection/explanation of your digital re-creation. There are no specific questions that you need to answer in this reflection; however, you should aim to simply explain the components and features of your digital art piece that you are proud of and want recognized, as well as how these features relate to the physical piece.You can also discuss your experience with recreating a piece of physical art digitally and the challenges that you faced as well as the aspects of the assignment that you enjoyed.Your reflection should be no longer than one page; one to two paragraphs is sufficient.You will submit the photographs of the physical art piece you chose, your list of digital creation tools, your map or plan for your digital work of art, your actual digital re-creation, and your reflection all together.For information on how you will be graded, please refer to the rubric below.
