Olin [163]

Answer:

Area covered by the fences will be 16.1 unit²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first parabola is represented by the function f(x) = 6x²

and second parabola by g(x) = x² + 9

point of intersection of the graphs will be determined when f(x) = g(x)

6x² = x² + 9

5x² = 9

x² = 1.8

x = ± 1.34

Now we will find the area between these curves drawn on the graph.

Area = $\int_{-1.34}^{1.34}[f(x)-g(x)]dx=\int_{-1.34}^{1.34}[6x^{2}-(x^{2}+9)]dx$

= $\int_{-1.34}^{1.34}(5x^{2}-9)dx$

= $[\frac{5}{3}x^{3}-9x]_{-1.34}^{1.34}$

= $[\frac{5}{3}(-1.34)^{3}-9(-1.34)-\frac{5}{3}(1.34)^{3}+9(1.34)]$

= $[-4.01+12.06-4.01+12.06]$

= 16.1 unit²

Answer:

a) $\frac{8}{9}$ =0.89

b) 0.8413

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

$P(║ x -\mu║ \leq k\sigma) \geq 1 -\frac{1}{k^2}$

$so, \mu = 150, \sigma = 20$

$k = \frac{210 - 150}{20} =\frac{150 - 90}{20} = 3$

$P(║ x -150 ║ \leq 3\times 20) \geq 1 -\frac{1}{3^2} = \frac{8}{9}$

x - N(150, 20^2)

$P(X \leq 170) = 0.8413447$

check

$P norm = \frac{170 - 150}{20}= 0.8413447$
