The correct answer is D, 146 inches.
7 x 12 = 84
4 x 12 = 48
84+48+4+10 = 146
See the graph attached.
The midpoint rule states that you can calculate the area under a curve by using the formula:
![M_{n} = \frac{b - a}{2} [ f(\frac{x_{0} + x_{1} }{2}) + f(\frac{x_{1} + x_{2} }{2}) + ... + f(\frac{x_{n-1} + x_{n} }{2})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=M_%7Bn%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7Bb%20-%20a%7D%7B2%7D%20%5B%20f%28%5Cfrac%7Bx_%7B0%7D%20%2B%20x_%7B1%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%2B%20%20f%28%5Cfrac%7Bx_%7B1%7D%20%2B%20x_%7B2%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%2B%20...%20%2B%20%20f%28%5Cfrac%7Bx_%7Bn-1%7D%20%2B%20x_%7Bn%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D%29%5D)
In your case:
a = 0
b = 1
n = 4
x₀ = 0
x₁ = 1/4
x₂ = 1/2
x₃ = 3/4
x₄ = 1
Therefore, you'll have:
![M_{4} = \frac{1 - 0}{4} [ f(\frac{0 + \frac{1}{4} }{2}) + f(\frac{ \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{2} }{2}) + f(\frac{\frac{1}{2} + \frac{3}{4} }{2}) + f(\frac{\frac{3}{4} + 1} {2})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=M_%7B4%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%20-%200%7D%7B4%7D%20%5B%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B0%20%2B%20%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%2B%20%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%2B%20%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%20%2B%20%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%20%7D%7B2%7D%29%20%2B%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B4%7D%20%2B%201%7D%20%7B2%7D%29%5D)
![M_{4} = \frac{1}{4} [ f(\frac{1}{8}) + f(\frac{3}{8}) + f(\frac{5}{8}) + f(\frac{7}{8})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=M_%7B4%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20%5B%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%29%20%2B%20%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B8%7D%29%20%2B%20%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B8%7D%29%20%2B%20f%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%29%5D)
Now, to evaluate your f(x), you need to look at the graph and notice that:
f(x) = x - x³
Therefore:
![M_{4} = \frac{1}{4} [(\frac{1}{8} - (\frac{1}{8})^{3}) + (\frac{3}{8} - (\frac{3}{8})^{3}) + (\frac{5}{8} - (\frac{5}{8})^{3}) + (\frac{7}{8} - (\frac{7}{8})^{3})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=M_%7B4%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20%5B%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%29%5E%7B3%7D%29%20%2B%20%28%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%28%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B8%7D%29%5E%7B3%7D%29%20%2B%20%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B8%7D%29%5E%7B3%7D%29%20%2B%20%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%29%5E%7B3%7D%29%5D)
![M_{4} = \frac{1}{4} [(\frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{512}) + (\frac{3}{8} - \frac{27}{512}) + (\frac{5}{8} - \frac{125}{512}) + (\frac{7}{8} - \frac{343}{512})]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=M_%7B4%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B4%7D%20%5B%28%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B512%7D%29%20%2B%20%28%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B27%7D%7B512%7D%29%20%2B%20%28%5Cfrac%7B5%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B125%7D%7B512%7D%29%20%2B%20%28%5Cfrac%7B7%7D%7B8%7D%20-%20%5Cfrac%7B343%7D%7B512%7D%29%5D)
M₄ = 1/4 · (2 - 478/512)
= 0.2666
Hence, the <span>area of the region bounded by y = x³ and y = x</span> is approximately
0.267 square units.
When the number is out of parenthesis it means it is multiplying the number between the parenthesis
example - 3 ( 28 + 32 ) => 3 ( 60)
which means 3 * 60 = 180
Note:- you cannot multiply the numbers when they are 3 ( 28 + 32 ) because you have to use PEMDAS ( order of operation ) to solve the problem where P = parenthesis , E = exponents, M = multiplication, D = divide , A = addition , S = subtract.
Answer:
= 7.5 in^3, <u>if the question is as interpreted below</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Is the question to determine the volume of a container with dimensions 2 x 2.5 x 1.5 (all inches)?
If so, Volume = (2)*(2.5)*(1.5)
= 7.5 in^3
Answer: m∠E = 55°
Step-by-step explanation: If a triangle has two equal sides, it is called Isosceles. Another characteristics of this type of triangle is that the angles opposite the equal sides are also congruent.
Triangle ΔEFG has two sides with approximately the same length:
≈ 
So, it is an isosceles.
Therefore the opposite angles are m∠E and m∠F.
m∠E = m∠F
m∠E = 55°
Angle at vertex E is 55°.
