The points where the 2 graphs intersect is  where x = 0 and x = 2.

-                 2                                  2
x   =    INT               x dA     /    INT        dA
                  0                                  0

INT dA   = INT -x^2 + 4x + 3 - (x^2 + 3 ) dx  =      INT -2x^2  + 4x
               =   -2 x^3/3 + 2x^2
               =   2.667  between 0 and 2

xdA  =   -2x^3 + 4x^2  INT xdA  =   -x^4/2 + 4x^3/3 = 2.667

centroid = 2.667 / 2.667  = 1  (x = 1)

The centroid for a bounded region is defined as:

x_c = \frac{ \int\limits^a_b {x(f(x) - g(x))}  dx}{ \int\limits^a_b {(f(x) -g(x))} \, dx} 

 \\  \\  y_c = \frac{ \int\limits^a_b {\frac{1}{2}(f(x) +g(x))(f(x) - g(x))}  dx}{ \int\limits^a_b {(f(x) -g(x))} \, dx}
where
f(x) = -(x-2)^2+7 = -x^2+4x+3 \\  \\ g(x) = x^2 +3
limits are where f(x) = g(x) at x = 0,2
Subbing into the integrals
x_c = \frac{\int_0^2 (-2x^3+4x^2) dx}{\int_0^2 (-2x^2+4x) dx} = 1 \\  \\  y_c = \frac{\int_0^2 (-4x^3+2x^2+12x) dx}{\int_0^2 (-2x^2+4x) dx} = 5

The centroid is the point (1,5)

A store allows customers to fill their own bags of candy. Troy decides he only wants chocolate-covered pretzels and gumdrops. Ch
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: He bought 0.5 pounds of chocolate-covered pretzels and 1.3 pounds of gumdrops.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Troy bought x pounds of chocolate-covered pretzels and y pounds of gumdrops.

Since, the total pounds he bought = 1.8 pounds,

That is, x + y = 1.8  ------------(1)

Also, he total spent total 1.29 dollars in which Chocolate-covered pretzels sell for $0.89 per pound, and gumdrops sell for $0.65 per pound.

That is, 0.89 x + 0.65 y = 1.29  -----------(2),

0.89 x × Equation(1),

We get,

0.89 x + 0.89 y = 1.602  ------------(3)

Equation(2)-equation(3),

We get, 0.24 y = 0.312 ⇒ y = 1.3

By Substituting this value in equation (1),

x = 1.8 -1.3 ⇒ x = 0.5

Thus, he bought chocolate-covered pretzels, x = 0.5 pounds,

And, gumdrops, y = 1.3 pounds.

The concentration C (in mg/dl), of a certain antibiotic in a patient's bloodstream is given by C(t)=50 t /(t^2 + 25) where t is
marishachu [46]
Given that the concentration has been modeled by the formula:
C(t)=50t/(t^2+25)
where:
t is time in hours.
The concentration after 5 hours will be given by:
t= 5 hours 
plugging the value in the equation we get:
C(5)=(50(5))/(5^2+25)
simplifying the above we get:
C(5)=250/(50)=5 mg/dl

Answer: 5 mg/dl
