130/2.5= 312/x

(cross multiply)

130x = 780

130x/130 = 780/ 130 (divide each by 130)

Explain how to describe the data on a histogram.

AnnZ [28]

A histogram is a graphical representation of discrete or continuous data. To put it another way, it gives a visual representation of numerical data by displaying the amount of data points that fall within a given range of values.

Solve for y: x + 2y = -8 y=-1/2x+4 y=-1/2x-4 y=-2x - 4 y=1/2x-4

adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

x + 2y = -8 = y = -4 - 1/2x

y= -1/2x + 4 = y = 4

y= -1/2x - 4 = y = -4

y=-2x - 4 = y = -4

y=1/2x-4 = y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 2y = -8 = y = -4 - 1/2x)

$x+2y=-8\\2y=-8-x\\y=-4-\frac{1}{2}x\\$

D Evaluate arcsin (6)] at x = 4. dx

sineoko [7]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{2\sqrt{5} }$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, $\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{x}{6})$ = y

sin(y) = $\frac{x}{6}$

$\frac{d}{dx}\text{sin(y)}=\frac{d}{dx}(\frac{x}{6})$

$\frac{d}{dx}\text{sin(y)}=\frac{1}{6}$

$\frac{d}{dx}\text{sin(y)}=\text{cos}(y)\frac{dy}{dx}$ ---------(1)

$\frac{1}{6}=\text{cos}(y)\frac{dy}{dx}$

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{6\text{cos(y)}}$

cos(y) = $\sqrt{1-\text{sin}^{2}(y) }$

= $\sqrt{1-(\frac{x}{6})^2}$

= $\sqrt{1-(\frac{x^2}{36})}$

Therefore, from equation (1),

$\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{36}}}$

Or $\frac{d}{dx}[\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{x}{6})]=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{x^2}{36}}}$

At x = 4,

$\frac{d}{dx}[\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{4}{6})]=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{4^2}{36}}}$

$\frac{d}{dx}[\text{sin}^{-1}(\frac{2}{3})]=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{1-\frac{16}{36}}}$

$=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{\frac{36-16}{36}}}$

$=\frac{1}{6\sqrt{\frac{20}{36} }}$

$=\frac{1}{\sqrt{20}}$

$=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{5}}$
