Answer:

2x + 5y = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

The x- and y-coefficients will be the same for a parallel line. The constant must be chosen to make the line go through the point.

... 2x + 5y = 2(5) +5(-4) = 10 -20 = -10

Your equation is

... 2x + 5y = -10

Let $f(x)=\sec^{-1}x$ . Then $\sec f(x)=x$ , and differentiating both sides with respect to $x$ gives

$(\sec f(x))'=\sec f(x)\tan f(x)\,f'(x)=1$
$f'(x)=\dfrac1{\sec f(x)\tan f(x)}$

Now, when $x=\sqrt2$ , you get

$(\sec^{-1})'(\sqrt2)=f'(\sqrt2)=\dfrac1{\sec\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)\tan\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)}$

You have $\sec^{-1}\sqrt2=\dfrac\pi4$ , so $\sec\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)=\sqrt2$ and $\tan\left(\sec^{-1}\sqrt2\right)=1$ . So $(\sec^{-1})'(\sqrt2)=\dfrac1{\sqrt2\times1}=\dfrac1{\sqrt2}$

A box has colored balls (12 red, 10 green, 6 light blue and 8 yellow). What is the probability of drawing 2 red balls?

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

You will have a 33% chance of drawing a red ball

Step-by-step explanation:

If you do 12+10+8+6, you get 36 which then you would ratio it. 12:36, and you would convert that to a percent, which is 33%
