Ignatz has a probability of rolling his first $5$ on a 6:1 probability.
Answer:
Part 1)
See Below.
Part 2)

Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1)
The linear approximation <em>L</em> for a function <em>f</em> at the point <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> is given by:

We want to verify that the expression:

Is the linear approximation for the function:

At <em>x</em> = 0.
So, find f'(x). We can use the chain rule:

Simplify. Hence:

Then the slope of the linear approximation at <em>x</em> = 0 will be:

And the value of the function at <em>x</em> = 0 is:

Thus, the linear approximation will be:

Hence verified.
Part B)
We want to determine the values of <em>x</em> for which the linear approximation <em>L</em> is accurate to within 0.1.
In other words:

By definition:

Therefore:

We can solve this by using a graphing calculator. Please refer to the graph shown below.
We can see that the inequality is true (i.e. the graph is between <em>y</em> = 0.1 and <em>y</em> = -0.1) for <em>x</em> values between -0.179 and -0.178 as well as -0.010 and 0.012.
In interval notation:

Answer:
x=1 and x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Put it into your calculator, go to graph and look at which points it says ERROR.
The answer is A. 4(n 3) - 6n
Answer:
1131 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that an unloaded truck and trailer, with the driver aboard, weighs 30,000 pounds. When fully loaded, the truck holds 26 pallets of cargo, and each of the 18 tires of the fully loaded semi-truck bears approximately 3,300 pounds.
First of all, we will find weight of 18 tires by multiplying 18 by 3,300 as:


The weight of 26 pallets would be weight of 18 tires minus weight of unloaded truck.


Now, we will divide 29,400 by 26 to find average weight of one pallet of cargo.



Therefore, the average weight of one pallet of cargo is approximately 1131 pounds.
