Use linear approximation to estimate f (2.85 )given that f (3 )equals 2 and f prime (3 )equals 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

f(3) = 2

f'(3) = 5.

We want to estimate f(2.85)

The linear approximation of "f" at "a" is one way of writing the equation of the tangent line at "a".

At x = a, y = f(a) and the slope of the tangent line is f'(a).

So, in point slope form, the tangent line has equation

y − f(a) = f'(a)(x − a)

The linearization solves for y by adding f(a) to both sides

f(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x − a).

Given that,

f(3) = 2,

f'(3) = 5

a = 3, we want to find f(2.85)

x = 2.85

Therefore,

f(x) = f(a) + f'(a)(x − a)

f(2.85) = 2 + 5(2.85 - 3)

f(2.85) = 2 + 5×-0.15

f(2.85) = 2 - 0.75

f(2.85) = 1.25

answer: 1722

step-by-step explanation:

given: the mass of saturn=

the mass of mercury=

the number of times the mass of saturn is greater than the mass of mercury

hence, the mass of saturn is 1722 times greater than the mass of mercury.

i get you, what you should do is think of the positive things that would come out of it. it will make yours parents proud and raise your grade. you should always try and if you can't focus tell the teacher.
