Answer:

The two numbers are 47 and 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = 1st number

consecutive means in a row so x+1 is the next consecutive number

Add them together

x+x+1 = 95

Combine like terms

2x+1 = 95

Subtract 1 from each side

2x+1-1 =95-1

2x = 94

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 94/2

x =47

x+1 = 48

The two numbers are 47 and 48

Answer:

47 and 48

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive numbers: x and x+1

x + (x + 1) = 95

2x + 1 = 95

2x = 94

x = 47

Does anyone know the formula for finding the area of a circles sector

NemiM [27]

Area=(Theta/2) * r^2 This should be it, obviously Theta is your angle and you should use radiants in theory.

Prove the formula for (d/dx)(cos−1(x)) by the same method as for (d/dx)(sin−1(x)). Let y = cos−1(x). Then cos(y) = and 0 ≤ y ≤ π

gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

$\frac{d(cos^{-1}x )}{dx} = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{1-x^2} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the differential (d/dx)(cos−1(x)), to find the equivalent formula we will differentiate the inverse function using chain rule as shown below;

let;

$y = cos^{-1} x \\\\taking \ cos\ of\ both\ sides\\\\cosy = cos(cos^{-1} x)\\\\cosy = x\\\\x = cosy\\\\\frac{dx}{dy} = -siny\\$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-1}{sin y} \\\\from\ trigonometry\ identity,\ sin^{2} x+cos^{2}x = 1\\sinx = \sqrt{1-cos^{2} x}$

Therefore;

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{1-cos^{2}y } }$

Since x = cos y from the above substitute;

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{1-x^{2}} }$

Hence, $\frac{d(cos^{-1}x )}{dx} = \frac{-1}{\sqrt{1-x^2} }$ gives the required proof

Solve the equation. Round to the nearest thousandth. -12e-x + 8 = 7

Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

-12e-x + 8 = 7

-12e-x = 7-8

-12e-x = -1

12e-x = 1

e-x = 1/12

ln(e-x) = ln(1/12)

x = -ln(1/12)

x = -2.485
