For this case, we find the amount of each colored candy in the bag, having a total of 55.

  • Reds:

55 -------------> 100%

R ---------------> 20%

Where "R" represents the amount of red candies.

R = \frac {20 * 55} {100}\\R = 11

  • Oranges:

O = \frac {30 * 55} {100}

O = 16.5, approximately 16 orange candies.

  • Green:

G = \frac {30 * 55} {100}

G = 16.5, approximately 16 green candies.

  • Blues:

B = \frac {20 * 55} {100}\\B = 11

Now, having a total of 11 blue candies, we must find 20% to know how many have the damaged candy coating.

11 ---------------> 100%

x -----------------> 20%

Where "x" represents the quantity of blue candies with the damaged candy coating

x = \frac {20 * 11} {100}\\x = 2.2

So, of 2 blue candies have the damaged candy coating

two

2sec^2x - secx - 1 = 0
Ivenika [448]
What are you trying to do here?
Solve the graph, or make it appear as something else?

First, we're going to take one sec (x) out so that we get:
sec (x) (2sec (x) -1 -1) = 0

sec (x) (2sec (x) -2) = 0


Then we're going to separate the two to find the zeros of each because anything time 0 is zero.

sec(x) = 0

2sec (x) - 2 = 0

Now, let's simplify the second one as the first one is already.

Add 2 to both sides:

2sec (x) = 2

Divide by 3 on both sides:

sec (x) = 1


I forgot my unit circle, so you'd have to do that by yourself. Hopefully, I helped a bit though!

10 points <br> Can someone please do number 4
Andrei [34K]

This question wants to know the domain.  For example: (2,4) 2 is the domain and 4 is the range.

Then, they want you to solve by finding X the range when x =-1

x-4/x^2+5x-36

Put -1 everytime you see x

-1-4/-1^2+5(-1)-36

-5/1+(-6)-36

-5/-41 This is the range.
