Answer:

She has approximately 3 pieces ( 2.625)

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the number of pieces, we need to divide the length of the wire by the individual length of the pieces.

To get the division done, it would be easier to convert what we have into improper fractions

For the piece of wire, the length which is 4 and 3/8 centimeters long will be 35/8 centimeters

while;

the individual length of each of the piece which is 1 and 2/3 centimeters long will be 5/3 centimeters

The number of pieces is thus 35/8 divided by 5/3 = 35/8 * 3/5 = 21/8 = 2.625 which is approximately 3 pieces

Whats 15-b=4b-5(5-3)
Gala2k [10]

15-b=4b-5(5-3)

Multiply the bracket by -5

(-5)(5)=-25

(-5)(-3)=15

15-b=4b-25+15

15-b=4b-10

Move 15 to the other side

Sign changes from +15 to -15

15-15-b=4b-10-15

-b=4b-25

Move 4b to the other side.

-b-4b=4b-4b-25

-b-4b=-25

-5b=-25

divide both sides by -5

-5b/-5=-25/-5

Answer: b=5

Use the value of the first integral I to evaluate the two given integrals. I = integral^3_0 (x^3 - 4x)dx = 9/4 A. integral^3_0 (
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

A) -9/2

B) 9/4

C) -9/2, same as A)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that I=\int_0^3 x^3-4x dx=9/4. We use the properties of integrals to write the new integrals in terms of I.

A) \int_0^3 8x-2x^3 dx=\int_0^3 -2(x^3-4x) dx=-2\int_0^3 x^3-4x dx=-2I=-9/2. We have used that ∫cf dx=c∫f dx.

B) \int_3^0 4x - x^3 dx=-\int_0^3 (4x-x^3) dx=\int_0^3-(4x-x^3) dx=\int_0^3 x^3-4x dx=I=9/4. Here we used that reversing the limits of integration changes the sign of the integral.

C) It's the same integral in A)
