A point is such that its distance from the point (3,0) is twice its distance from the point (-3,0). Find the equation of the locus.

Answer»

SOLUTION :
Given that `barPB = 2barPB`
or, `sqrt((X-3)^2 + y^2) = 2sqrt((x+3)^2 + y^2)

Find delta f and df whenf(x) = sqrtx , x = 16, deltax = 0.3

Answer»

Solution :`F(x) = sqrtx , x = 16, deltax = 0.3`
`deltaf = f(x+deltax)-f(x) = sqrt(x+deltax)-sqrtx`
`= sqrt16.3 - sqrt16 = 4.0373-4`
= 0.373
Again DF = `1/(2sqrtx) dx = `1/(2sqrt16) xx 0.3`
= (0.3)/8 = 0.0375
