Answer:

x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 5 (x + 2) - 41

3x + 3 = 5x + 10 - 41

3x + 3 = 5x - 31

34 = 2x

17 = x

Differentiate the function. f(x) = ln(25 sin^2(x))

tigry1 [53]

Use the chain rule.
Let u = 25sin²(x), such that dy/dx = dy/du · du/dx

$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{1}{25sin^{2}(x)} \cdot 50cos(x) \cdot sin(x)$
$\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{2cos(x) sin(x)}{sin^{2}(x)}$

$\frac{dy}{dx} = 2cot(x)$

Among 9 electrical components exactly one is known not to function properly. if 4 components are randomly selected, find the pro

seraphim [82]

Answer:

0.4444

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the following property to ease the calculation:

P(At least one)=1-P(None)

Total number of electrical components: 9

Number that does not function well :1

Number that functions well : 8

We have $^8C_4=70$ ways to to choose 4 good components from 8.

We have $^9C_4=126$ ways to choose 4 components from a total of 9.

If all function properly then none is bad, we $^1C_0=1$ way to do this.

P(At least one)= $1-\frac{^8C_4*^1C_0}{^9C_4}$

P(At least one)= $1-\frac{70*1}{126}$

P(At least one)=0.4444
