$0.86. You either divide by 10 manually, or use the powers of 10.

Answer:

Each piece of candy cost

$0.86

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one This problem bothers on well we can do and understand our division of numbers

Step two

Given that Jessica spent $8.60

To buy 10 pieces of candy

Step three

We can get the unit cost of each candy by simply divide the total amount spent by the total Candy purchased

Hence

A candy cost = 8.60/10

= $0.86

Find the derivative of the function. y = sin−1(6x + 1)

liraira [26]

If you don't know the derivative of the inverse of sine, you can use implicit differentiation. Apply sine to both sides:

$y=\sin^{-1}(6x+1)\implies\sin y=6x+1$

(true for <em>y</em> between -π/2 and π/2)

Now take the derivative of both sides and solve for it:

$\cos y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=6$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=6\sec y$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac6{\cos\left(\sin^{-1}(6x+1)\right)}$

$\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=\dfrac6{\sqrt{1-(6x+1)^2}}$

Can someone help me find x please

Answer:

38.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the triangle using the trigonometrical ratios which may be expressed in the form SOA CAH TOA Where

SOA stands for

Sin Ф = opposite side/hypotenuses side

CAH stands for

Cosine Ф = adjacent side/hypotenuses side

TOA stands for

Tangent Ф = opposite side/adjacent side

The hypotenuse is the side facing the right angle while the opposite is the side facing the given angle.

Considering the triangle with respect to angle x, 8cm is the opposite side, 10cm is the adjacent side

hence

Tan x = 8/10

Tan x = 0.8

x = tan -1 0.8

= 38.7°

11. What is the value of x in the figure at the right? (Examples 3 and 4)

natka813 [3]

Answer:

x = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertically opposite angles are equal
Angles around a point add up to 360°

Therefore, $15x + 15x + 15 + 15 = 360$

$\implies 30x+30=360$

$\implies 30x=330$

$\implies x=11$
