Answer: 1008 letters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, last Monday, a local mail carriers delivered 1,344 pieces of mail and of all the deliveries they made, 1 / 6 were magazines, 1 / 12 were packages, and the rest were letters. The fraction of letters will be:

= 1 - (1/6 + 1/12)

= 1 - (3/12)

= 9/12 = 3/4

We will now multiply 3/4 by 1344 to get the number of letters delivered.

= 3/4 × 1344

= 1008 letters

<h3>Answer:    y = x+1</h3>

===================================================

Explanation:

f(x) = x^3 - 2x + 3

f ' (x) = 3x^2 - 2 ..... apply the power rule

f ' (1) = 3(1)^2 - 2 ... plug in x coordinate of given point

f ' (1) = 1

If x = 1 is plugged into the derivative function, then we get the output 1. This means the slope of the tangent line at (1,2) is m = 1. It's just a coincidence that the x input value is the same as the slope m value.

Now apply point slope form to find the equation of the tangent line

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = 1(x - 1)

y - 2 = x - 1

y = x - 1 + 2

y = x + 1   is the equation of the tangent line.

The graph is shown below. I used GeoGebra to make the graph.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

The Brooks conjecture is true as the proportion of the area of a sector to the area of a circle is only dependent on the angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a sector for a radius r and an angle θ is given as

\Delta Sector=\dfrac{1}{2}r^2\theta

Whereas the area of a circle for a radius r is given as

\Delta Circle=\pi r^2

Now the ratio is given as

\dfrac{\Delta Sector}{\Delta Circle}=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}r^2\theta}{\pi r^2}

Here as r is the radius of the circle and it is the same therefore the above ratio is simplified to

\dfrac{\Delta Sector}{\Delta Circle}=\dfrac{\theta}{2\pi }

Here as π is constant the only variable here is θ. Thus according to Brooks conjecture when the angles are equal, the proportion of area of each sector relative to the area of the given circle is also equal is true.
