You work it backwards.

-- If there were 4 children and each child got 4 pieces,
then the children got (4 x 4) = 16 pieces altogether.

-- That's what was left after he took 2 pieces for himself. 
So he started with (16 + 2) = <em>18 pieces</em>.

So first 4 times 4 is 16 and then add 2 to get 18

HELP URGANT WILL GIVE 20 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST FOR FAST AND ACCURATE ANSWER !!!
Kisachek [45]

The sine of any acute angle is equal to the cosine of its complement. The cosine of any acute angle is equal to the sine of its complement. of any acute angle equals its cofunction of the angle's complement.

A

C

B

Since m∠A = 22º is given, we know m∠B = 68º since there are 180º in the triangle. Since the measures of these acute angles of a right triangle add to 90º, we know these acute angles are complementary. ∠A is the complement of ∠B, and ∠B is the complement of ∠A.

If we write, m∠B = 90º - m∠A    (or m∠A = 90º - m∠B ), and we substitute into the original observation, we have:

Use the linear approximation (1+x)^kapprox 1+kx to find an approximation for the function f(x) for values of x near zero.
padilas [110]
A)                                 approx =  1-8x
b) f(x) -8(1-x)^-1          approx =   -8(1+x) = -8 - 8x
because 1/x = x^-1...

c) f(x) = (1+x)^-1/2      approx    = 1- 1/2x
d) f(x) = (4+x^2)^1/2   approx = 4 + 1/2x^2
e) f(x) = (6+3x)^1/3     approx = 6+x
