Isn't the series here divergent? doesn't that mean it cannot be represented as a riemann sum

No issues with convergence here. If you actually expand the summand you can use the well-known Faulhaber formulas to compute the sum.

\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^n 1 = n

\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^n i = \frac{n(n+1)}2

\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^n i^2 = \frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}6

\displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^n i^3 = \frac{n^2(n+1)^2}4

and so on. You would end up with

\displaystyle L_n = \frac2n \times \frac{96-8796n^2+40283n^3-49458n^4}{n^3}

As n\to\infty, we have L_n\to-98916.

Now, when i=1, the first term of the sum is

7(5+0)^3 - 6(5+0)^5

so the left endpoint of the first subinterval is a=5.

At the other end, when i=n, the last term of the sum is

7\left(5+\dfrac{2(n-1)}n\right)^3 - 6\left(5+\dfrac{2(n-1)}n\right)^5

which converges to

7(5+2)^3 - 6(5+2)^5

so the left endpoint of the last subinterval converges to b=5 + 2 = 7.

From here it's quite clear that f(x)=7x^3-6x^5. So, the Riemann sum converges to the definite integral

\boxed{\displaystyle \int_5^7 (7x^3 - 6x^5) \, dx}

Final question - whats the answer?
Doss [256]

Answer: 7^5 or 7 to the fifth power.

Step-by-step explanation: This is an exponent meaning you count the 7’s and in the first picture there’s 5 7’s. This means that the number your putting to a power is the yellow box so that’s 7 and the exponent is 5 not 4 because if you did 7 to the first power it’s still 7 so it would be 7 to the 5th power or 7^5

We are interested in conducting a study to determine the percentage of voters of a state would vote for the incumbent governor.
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.05}{1.96})^2}=384.16  

And rounded up we have that n=385

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the critical value we need to take in count that we are finding the interval for a proportion, so on this case we need to use the z distribution. Since our interval is at 95% of confidence, our significance level would be given by \alpha=1-0.95=0.05 and \alpha/2 =0.025. And the critical value would be given by:

z_{\alpha/2}=-1.96, z_{1-\alpha/2}=1.96

The margin of error for the proportion interval is given by this formula:  

ME=z_{\alpha/2}\sqrt{\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{n}}    (a)  

And on this case we have that ME =\pm 0.05 and we are interested in order to find the value of n, if we solve n from equation (a) we got:  

n=\frac{\hat p (1-\hat p)}{(\frac{ME}{z})^2}   (b)  

The estimated proportion for this case is \hat p=0.5. And replacing into equation (b) the values from part a we got:

n=\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{(\frac{0.05}{1.96})^2}=384.16  

And rounded up we have that n=385
