"y varies directly as x" means y = kx
you do not know what k is yet, other than that it is some constant number.
Now plug in the given values, y=12 when x=4, in the equation
12 = 4k
=> k = 3
Now rewrite the equation with the k value you just found
y = 3k
Substitute 18 in place of x
y = 3(18)
y = 54
The first x coordinate is given by 0 and the second one is given as j. So the length of the base is j. (Sometimes in math they give letters rather than numbers. And since you know it is an isosceles then the other vertex should be at x-coordinate half j or j/2.
Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
When you rotate a point 270 degrees clockwise (x, -y) becomes (-y, -x) so the answer would be (-5, -3).
Rather than carrying out IBP several times, let's establish a more general result. Let

One round of IBP, setting


gives


This is called a power-reduction formula. We could try solving for
explicitly, but no need.
is small enough to just expand
as much as we need to.





Finally,

so we end up with


and the antiderivative is
