110% = 1.1

1 + 1.1 = 2.1

17.85 / 2.1 = 8.5

Help please i don’t know how to do it

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{dy}{dx}=x^{2}(y-1)\\\frac{1}{y-1} \text{ } dy=x^{2} \text{ } dx\\\int \frac{1}{y-1} \text{ } dy=\int x^{2} \text{ } dx\\\ln|y-1|=\frac{x^{3}}{3}+C\\$

From the initial condition,

$\ln|3-1|=\frac{0^{3}}{3}+C\\\ln 2=C$

So we have that $\ln |y-1|=\frac{x^{3}}{3}+\ln 2\\e^{\frac{x^{3}}{3}+\ln 2}=y-1\\2e^{\frac{x^{3}}{3}}=y-1\\y=2e^{\frac{x^{3}}{3}}+1$

1) Find the mean of the following numbers: 5, 11, 8, 8, 7, 4, 10, 9, 7, 7, 6

SashulF [63]

Mean = 5+11+8+8+7+4+10+9+7+7+6 divided by the number of observations which is 10

Therefore, mean = 73/10
Mean = 7.3

Answer:

0.9950 to the nearest ten thousandth.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the identity sin^2 t = 1 - cos^2 t

sin^2 t = 1 - (0.1)^2

= 0.99

So sin t = 0.9950 (answer).
