Answer:

$\frac{5}{y^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have the following expression: $5y^_-2}$

There is no parenthesis, so the -2 exponent is only applied to the y, and not the 5.

To rewrite a negative exponent, you can use the property: $(\frac{a}{b})^{-x}=(\frac{b}{a})^x$

You can derive this property from the exponent property: $\frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}$

which essentially consists of just cancelling out the x's from the numerator and the denominator, but in some cases you're "cancelling" out more x's in the denominator, than there are in the numerator.

Take for example: $\frac{x^2}{x^5}$ , using the quotient of exponents, we can simplify it to: $x^{2-5}=x^{-3}$

And to see why this happening, let's expand out the fraction: $\frac{x^2}{x^5}\implies \frac{x*x}{x*x*x*x*x}$ , as you can see in this fraction there are two x's in the numerator and there are also 2 in the denominator (more than 2, but there are at least 2 in the denominator), thus we can cancel out two of the x's leading to the fraction: $\frac{1}{x*x*x}$

So by definition: $x^{-3}=\frac{1}{x*x*x}=\frac{1}{x^3}$

So negative exponents are just the reciprocal in a way, or more formally: $(\frac{a}{b})^{-x}=(\frac{b}{a})^x$

So in your case specifically we can rewrite y^(-2) as: $5 * y^{-2}\implies5*\frac{1}{y^2}\implies \frac{5}{y^2}$

What value of x is in the solution set of 2(3x – 1) ≥ 4x – 6?

shtirl [24]

The answer is x ≥ -2. First use distributive property to simplify the left side of inequality: 2(3x – 1) ≥ 4x – 6. 2 * 3x - 2 * 1 ≥ 4x - 6. 6x - 2 ≥ 4x - 6. Rearrange it to get x on the one side and integers on the other side of inequality: 6x - 4x ≥ 2 - 6. Solve for x: 2x ≥ -4. x ≥ -4/2. x ≥ -2.Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!

Consider the integral Integral from 0 to 1 e Superscript 6 x Baseline dx with nequals 25 . a. Find the trapezoid rule approximat

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

With n = 25, $\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx \approx 67.3930999748549$

With n = 50, $\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx \approx 67.1519320308594$

b. $\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx \approx 67.0715427161943$

The absolute error in the trapezoid rule is 0.08047

The absolute error in the Simpson's rule is 0.00008

Step-by-step explanation:

a. To approximate the integral $\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx$ using n = 25 with the trapezoid rule you must:

The trapezoidal rule states that

$\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx\approx\frac{\Delta{x}}{2}\left(f(x_0)+2f(x_1)+2f(x_2)+...+2f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)\right)$

where $\Delta{x}=\frac{b-a}{n}$

We have that a = 0, b = 1, n = 25.

Therefore,

$\Delta{x}=\frac{1-0}{25}=\frac{1}{25}$

We need to divide the interval [0,1] into n = 25 sub-intervals of length $\Delta{x}=\frac{1}{25}$ , with the following endpoints:

$a=0, \frac{1}{25}, \frac{2}{25},...,\frac{23}{25}, \frac{24}{25}, 1=b$

Now, we just evaluate the function at these endpoints:

$f\left(x_{0}\right)=f(a)=f\left(0\right)=1=1$

$2f\left(x_{1}\right)=2f\left(\frac{1}{25}\right)=2 e^{\frac{6}{25}}=2.54249830064281$

$2f\left(x_{2}\right)=2f\left(\frac{2}{25}\right)=2 e^{\frac{12}{25}}=3.23214880438579$

...

$2f\left(x_{24}\right)=2f\left(\frac{24}{25}\right)=2 e^{\frac{144}{25}}=634.696657835701$

$f\left(x_{25}\right)=f(b)=f\left(1\right)=e^{6}=403.428793492735$

Applying the trapezoid rule formula we get

$\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx \approx \frac{1}{50}(1+2.54249830064281+3.23214880438579+...+634.696657835701+403.428793492735)\approx 67.3930999748549$

To approximate the integral $\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx$ using n = 50 with the trapezoid rule you must:

We have that a = 0, b = 1, n = 50.

Therefore,

$\Delta{x}=\frac{1-0}{50}=\frac{1}{50}$

We need to divide the interval [0,1] into n = 50 sub-intervals of length $\Delta{x}=\frac{1}{50}$ , with the following endpoints:

$a=0, \frac{1}{50}, \frac{1}{25},...,\frac{24}{25}, \frac{49}{50}, 1=b$

Now, we just evaluate the function at these endpoints:

$f\left(x_{0}\right)=f(a)=f\left(0\right)=1=1$

$2f\left(x_{1}\right)=2f\left(\frac{1}{50}\right)=2 e^{\frac{3}{25}}=2.25499370315875$

$2f\left(x_{2}\right)=2f\left(\frac{1}{25}\right)=2 e^{\frac{6}{25}}=2.54249830064281$

...

$2f\left(x_{49}\right)=2f\left(\frac{49}{50}\right)=2 e^{\frac{147}{25}}=715.618483417705$

$f\left(x_{50}\right)=f(b)=f\left(1\right)=e^{6}=403.428793492735$

Applying the trapezoid rule formula we get

$\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx \approx \frac{1}{100}(1+2.25499370315875+2.54249830064281+...+715.618483417705+403.428793492735) \approx 67.1519320308594$

b. To approximate the integral $\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx$ using 2n with the Simpson's rule you must:

The Simpson's rule states that

$\int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx\approx \\\frac{\Delta{x}}{3}\left(f(x_0)+4f(x_1)+2f(x_2)+4f(x_3)+2f(x_4)+...+2f(x_{n-2})+4f(x_{n-1})+f(x_n)\right)$

where $\Delta{x}=\frac{b-a}{n}$

We have that a = 0, b = 1, n = 50

Therefore,

$\Delta{x}=\frac{1-0}{50}=\frac{1}{50}$

We need to divide the interval [0,1] into n = 50 sub-intervals of length $\Delta{x}=\frac{1}{50}$ , with the following endpoints:

$a=0, \frac{1}{50}, \frac{1}{25},...,\frac{24}{25}, \frac{49}{50}, 1=b$

Now, we just evaluate the function at these endpoints:

$f\left(x_{0}\right)=f(a)=f\left(0\right)=1=1$

$4f\left(x_{1}\right)=4f\left(\frac{1}{50}\right)=4 e^{\frac{3}{25}}=4.5099874063175$

$2f\left(x_{2}\right)=2f\left(\frac{1}{25}\right)=2 e^{\frac{6}{25}}=2.54249830064281$

...

$4f\left(x_{49}\right)=4f\left(\frac{49}{50}\right)=4 e^{\frac{147}{25}}=1431.23696683541$

$f\left(x_{50}\right)=f(b)=f\left(1\right)=e^{6}=403.428793492735$

Applying the Simpson's rule formula we get

$\int_{0}^{1}e^{6 x}\ dx \approx \frac{1}{150}(1+4.5099874063175+2.54249830064281+...+1431.23696683541+403.428793492735) \approx 67.0715427161943$

c. If B is our estimate of some quantity having an actual value of A, then the absolute error is given by $|A-B|$

The absolute error in the trapezoid rule is

The calculated value is

$\int _0^1e^{6\:x}\:dx=\frac{e^6-1}{6} \approx 67.0714655821225$

and our estimate is 67.1519320308594

Thus, the absolute error is given by

$|67.0714655821225-67.1519320308594|=0.08047$

The absolute error in the Simpson's rule is

$|67.0714655821225-67.0715427161943|=0.00008$
