Answer:

  √13 ≈ 3.60555127546

  "by hand": 3 4/7 or 398143/110425 or 3.6055 or 3 23/38

Step-by-step explanation:

Most on-line calculators, calculator apps for phone or tablet, and any spreadsheet can calculate this for you. The first attachment shows the result from the Go.ogle calculator.

Here, we describe 4 methods of approximating the root "by hand." That is, the calculations can be done with pencil and paper. They are easily within the capability of a 4-function calculator.

__

Method 1 -- Linear approximation

You can approximate it by hand in the following way.

√13 is between √9 = 3 and √16 = 4. As a first approximation, it is ...

  3 + (13 -9)/(16 -9) = 3 4/7 ≈ 3.57 ≈ 3.6

This is a linear interpolation between √9 and √16.

_____

Method 2 -- Babylonian method

The "Babylonian method" can be used to refine this approximation. For the next guess, average this number and the quotient 13 divided by this number.

  x = (3 4/7 + (13/(3 4/7))/2 = (25/7 + 13·7/25)/2 = (625 +637)/350 = 631/175

  x = 3 106/175 ≈ 3.6057 . . . . . . good to 3 decimal places

One more iteration will double the number of correct decimal digits.

  x = (3 106/175 + 13/(3 106/175))/2 = 398143/110425 ≈ 3.60555127915

(correct digits are highlighted)

_____

Method 3 -- "long division"

There is also a "long-division" method that develops the root one digit at a time. This is described in the second attachment, an extract from the NIST web site. For a number like 13, you would use 13.00 00 00 00 as the initial "dividend" to get a 4-digit root.

_____

Method 4 -- continued fraction

Once you realize that the root is between 3 and 4, you can write a "continued fraction" for the fractional part:

  3 +x = √13 . . . . . . where x is the fractional part of the root

  (3 +x)² = 13 . . . . . . square both sides

  x² +6x +9 = 13 . . . expand the square

  x(x +6) = 4 . . . . . . . subtract 9 and factor

  x = 4/(6 +x) . . . . . . write as an iterator (continued fraction)

At this point, we can say x = p/q for some integers p and q. Then the next iteration is ...

  p/q = 4/(6 +p/q) = 4q/(6q +p)

That is, successive approximations of x can be had by the transformation ...

  (p, q) ⇒ (4q, 6q+p)

Starting with the linear interpolation fraction x=4/7, the next refinements using this method are ...

  (p, q) = (4, 7) ⇒ (28, 46) = (14, 23)* ⇒ (92, 152) = (23, 38)

At this point, you have approximated the root as 3 23/38 ≈ 3.6053, accurate in the third decimal place. Convergence is clearly much slower than using the Babylonian method.

__

* We have reduced the fraction p/q = 28/46 to 14/23 in order to keep the numbers as small as possible. Similarly, 92/152 is reduced to 23/38.

Answer:

481 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the figure = Volume of the triangular prism + rectangular prism

Volume of the triangular prism = Base area * height

Volume of the triangular prism = (1/2*5*3) *  6

Volume of the triangular prism = 15/2 * 6

Volume of the triangular prism = 15 * 3

Volume of the triangular prism = 45in³

Volume of the rectangular prism = 16*7*3

Volume of the rectangular prism = 336in³

Volume of the figure = 45+336

Volume of the figure = 481 cubic inches

Answer:

75.36

Step-by-step explanation:

24 cm x 3.14 = 75.36

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - In selecting a sulfur concrete for roadway construction in regions that experience heavy frost, it is important that the chosen concrete has a low value of thermal conductivity in order to minimize subsequent damage due to changing temperatures. Suppose two types of concrete, a graded aggregate and a no-fines aggregate, are being considered for a certain road. The table below summarizes data on thermal conductivity from an experiment carried out to compare the two types of concrete.

Type            ni                xi                  si

Graded       42           0.486            0.187

No-fines      42           0.359           0.158

To find - a. Formulate the above in terms of a hypothesis testing problem.

b. Give the test statistic and its reference distribution (under the null hypothesis).

c. Report the p-value of the test statistic and use it to assess the evidence that this sample provides on the scientific question of difference in mean conductivity of the two materials at the 5% level of significance.

Proof -

a.)

Hypothesis testing problem :

H0 : There is significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

H1 : There is no significant difference between mean conductivity for the graded concrete and mean conductivity for the no fines concrete.

b)

Test statistic :

[tex]Z = \frac{x_{1} - x_{2} }{\sqrt{\frac{s_{1} ^{2} }{n_{1}} + \frac{s_{2}^{2} }{n_{2}} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.486 - 0.359 }{\sqrt{\frac{0.03496 }{42} + \frac{0.02496 }{42} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.127 }{\sqrt{0.001468}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.127 }{0.0377}[/tex]

⇒Z(cal) = 3.3687

Z(tab) = 1.96

As Z (cal) > Z(tab)

So, we reject H0 at 5% Level of significance

p-value = 0.99962

Hence

There is significant difference in mean conductivity at the two materials.

Answer: (2) {(6,0), (5,0),(4,0)}

It is a function, where each value is associated with exactly one output.

Step-by-step explanation:

A relation is said to be a function if the first components of the ordered pairs are associated with exactly one value of the second components of the ordered pair.

(1) {(0,4), (2,4),(2,5)}

here 2 is associated with 2 different values of second component.

Thus it is not a function.

(2) {(6,0), (5,0),(4,0)}

It is a function, where each value is associated with exactly one output.

(3)  {(4,1),(6,2), (6,3), (5,0)}

It is not a function as 6 is associated with 2 different values of second component.

(4) {(0,4),(1,4), (0,5),(1,5)}​

It is not a function as 0 and 1 are associated with 2 different values of second component.

Answer:

3. y = -3x + 2

4. y = 3x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form equation is given as y = mx + b.

3. First, using two points on the line, (0, 2) and (1, -1), find the slope (m).

Slope (m) = change in y / change in x = (-1 - 2)/(1 - 0) = -3/1

m = -3

Find the y-intercept (b):

The y-intercept (b) = 2 (this is where the line intercepts the y-axis)

b = 2

✅To write the equation, substitute m = -3 and b = 2 into y = mx + b

Thus:

y = -3x + 2

4. Using two points on the line, (2, 1) and (0, -5), find the slope (m).

Slope (m) = change in y / change in x = (-5 - 1)/(0 - 2) = -6/-2 = 3

m = 3

Find the y-intercept (b):

The y-intercept (b) = -5 (this is where the line intercepts the y-axis)

b = -5

✅To write the equation, substitute m = 3 and b = -5 into y = mx + b

Thus:

y = 3x + (-5)

y = 3x - 5

Answer:

37.68 Inches cubed (A)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for a cylinder is:

πr^2(h)

First, let's find the radius, which is:

4/2 = 2

Now, we can plug in the values:

3.14(2)^2(3)

Do exponents first:

3.14(4)(3)

Multiply left to right:

12.56(3)

Again:

37.68 Inches

So, the answer is:

37.68 Inches cubed (Or A)

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Equally likely

Step-by-step explanation:

A coin has two sides, heads and tails, so if you flip it, you have a 50% chance to get heads and a 50% chance to get tails. 50% - 50% is an equal ratio, therefore having an equal chance of likelyhood to get heads.

2X = 18

Divide each side by 2

2X/2 = 18/2

x = 9

Answer:

X=9

Step-by-step explanation:

28-10=18

2 x 9= 18

Answer:

A: 2x + 13 = 59
