Answer:

7.1

Step-by-step explanation:

write pythagorean theorem x^{2} + x^{2} = 10^2

2x^2 = 100

divide 2 both side:

x^{2} = 50

\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{50}

x = \sqrt{50}

x = 7.07106781

round to nearest tenth:

x = 7.1

State restrictions for the given equation below
Genrish500 [490]

The restriction of the given equation is cos^{2}x =cos^{2} x,  other than 0≤x≤2π.

What is restriction of equation?

Restriction of the equation is the value of domain where the value is limited.

Given,

sin^{2} xcos^{2}x +cos^4x =(1-sinx)(1+sinx)

taking cos^2x common, we get

cos^2x(sin^2x+cos^2x)=1+sinx-sinx-sin^2x

we know

sin^2x+cos^2x=1\\cos^2x=1-sin^2x

we get,

cos^2x=cos^2x

and the restriction is 0≤x≤2π.

What are 3 completed examples for functions?
Lyrx [107]
Example 1

Write y = x2 + 4x + 1 using function notation and evaluate the function at x = 3.

Solution

Given, y = x2 + 4x + 1

By applying function notation, we get

f(x) = x2 + 4x + 1

Evaluation:


Substitute x with 3

f (3) = 32 + 4 × 3 + 1 = 9 + 12 + 1 = 22

Example 2

Evaluate the function f(x) = 3(2x+1) when x = 4.

Solution

Plug x = 4 in the function f(x).

f (4) = 3[2(4) + 1]

f (4) = 3[8 + 1]

f (4) = 3 x 9

f (4) = 27

Example 3

Write the function y = 2x2 + 4x – 3 in function notation and find f (2a + 3).

Solution

y = 2x2 + 4x – 3 ⟹ f (x) = 2x2 + 4x – 3


Substitute x with (2a + 3).

f (2a + 3) = 2(2a + 3)2 + 4(2a + 3) – 3

= 2(4a2 + 12a + 9) + 8a + 12 – 3
= 8a2 + 24a + 18 + 8a + 12 – 3
= 8a2 + 32a + 27

hodyreva [135]
Because the probability of getting heads is 1/2, in a scenario in which it is tossed 3 times, the probability of getting exactly one head is 1/3.

I would say B with my answer. You'd divide 570 by 19 then multiply by 8.
