F(x) = x - 2sinx

To find for what values of x graph has tangents we need to differentiate function f(x).
f'(x) = 1-2cosx
Now, if we want to have horizontal tangents we need to make function f'(x) equal to 0 because at minimum or maximum of function f(x) tangent is horizontal.

1-2cosx = 0
cosx = 1/2
x = pi/3 + 2*n*pi      and
x = -pi/3 + 2*n*pi 

Explanation: cosx = 1/2 for both 60° and -60°. If we make one circle cosx will be equal to 1/2 for 420 and 300 degrees. Writing degrees in radians (using pi) we can write formulas above where 2*pi represents one full circle and n is an integer which represents how many circles we made.

A sample is a subset of all possible data values for a given subject under consideration.
Tom [10]

Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

A subset is a term used in the sets topic In mathematics to describe a Part of A larger values being considered.

Sample In experimental procedures is known as Part of what is to be used to determine the reaction of a larger mass of specimen.

Taking these two definitions by side, it is quite evident that both of them represent taking part of a larger picture to form a smaller picture which does not totally deviate from the larger picture being considered.

How many moles of oxygen are required to burn 3.0 mole of C10H8 (naphthalene)?
astra-53 [7]

Answer: 36 moles oxygen

Step-by-step explanation:

C10H8 + 12O2 ====》 10CO2 + 4H2O

From the equation of the reaction,

1 mole of napth requires 12 moles of O2

3 moles of napth would require x moles O2

X = (3 * 12) / 1

X = 36 moles of oxygen.

Therefore 3 moles of naphtalene (C10H8) would require 36 moles of oxygen
