DfLet f(x)=\sec x and g(x)=\sqrt x. Then

y=\sec\sqrt x=\sec(g(x))=f(g(x))=f\circ g(x)

By the chain rule,

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm du}\dfrac{\mathrm du}{\mathrm dx}

where u=g(x)=\sqrt x, so that y=f(g(x))=f(u)=\sec u. We have

\dfrac{\mathrm du}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac1{2\sqrt x}
\dfrac{\mathrm d\sec u}{\mathrm du}=\sec u\tan u

and so

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\sec u\tan u\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm du}=\dfrac{\sec\sqrt x\,\tan\sqrt x}{2\sqrt x}

bija089 [108]

Answer:

C. It supports the scientific explanation for global warming.

Explanation:

The listed pieces of empirical evidence support the scientific explanation for global warming. Global warming is the long-term heating of Earth's climate, and the increase in levels of carbon dioxide and methane is the reason why glacial ice in the Antarctic and Arctic sea is melting.

These pieces of evidence don't deal with the past of the future. They tell us what is going on right now. Based on them, we could make an assumption about what is going to happen in the future, but there are no predictions here.

Also, this data can be used for science journals and textbooks, but that purpose is not expressed here.

This leaves us with option C as the correct one.

Calculate X you must include the steps in your solution and the definitions and/or conjuncture that you use
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer: x = 8

because  The upper triangle is an isosceles triangle (the two sides are equal)

=> 5x + 5 = 45°

<=> x = (45 - 5) : 5

<=> x = 40:5 = 8

I’m confused on this one
Yakvenalex [24]

It would be 10 inches. The length of WZ would usually be stated as the diameter in these cases. As you can see in the picture, 5 inches is our radius and the diameter equals the radius times two (2r or the radius doubled) to give the diameter. 5 x 2 = 10, and 10 would be the answer.
