8 0

Answer:

5 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of pieces divide 1 7/8 by 3/8

Change 1 7/8 to an improper fraction

substitute this value into the equation

to solve this complex fraction remove the bottom fraction by multiplying both the top and bottom fractions by the inverse of the bottom fraction.

Multiplying by the inverse results in a product of 1 so the result is

dividing by 1 gives just the top fraction.

Which describes the behavior of the function f(x)= tan^-1(x)?

Fantom [35]

Answer:

Third Option

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the function $tan(x)$ is defined as $y=\frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}$ . Since the denominator is $cos(x)$ then we know that $cos(x)=0$ when $x=\frac{\pi}{2}$

We also know that the division by 0 is not defined. Therefore, the limit of $y=tan(x)$ when "x" tends to $\frac{\pi}{2}$ is infinite.

The function $tan^{-1}(x)$ is the inverse of $tan(x)$

By definition, if we have a function f(x), its domain will be equal to the range of its inverse function $f^{-1}(x)$ . If $f(3)=8$ , then $f^{-1}(8)=3$

This also happens for the function $tan^{-1}(x)$

If when $x \to \frac{\pi}{2}, tan(x) \to \infty$ then when $x \to \infty, tan^{-1}x \to \frac{\pi}{2}$

Then, the answer is:

$x \to \infty, f(x) \to \frac{\pi}{2}$

3/5 with an exponent of 4

nordsb [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{If is}\ \dfrac{3}{5}^4,\ \text{then}\ \dfrac{3}{5}^4=\dfrac{3\cdot3\cdot3\cdot3}{5}=\dfrac{81}{5}=16\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\\text{If is}\ \left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)^4=\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)\left(\dfrac{3}{5}\right)=\dfrac{3\cdot3\cdot3\cdot3}{5\cdot5\cdot5\cdot5}=\dfrac{81}{625}$

How do I divide pi by 1000?

Leokris [45]

Just as you would do it with any other number.

Write out some of it, then move the decimal point 3 places this way <=== .

Some of pi : 3.14159

Divide by 1,000 : 0.00314159
