Amy has 1/2 hour to do 3 chores. She plans to spend the same fraction of an hour on each chore. She wants to use the number line

to help her determine what fraction of an hour she can spend on each chore. What is the correct number label for point A?

Point A would be zero; Point B, the end of the 1/2-hour time interval, would be 1/2 (representing 1/2 hour).  Then Amy needs to subdivide the interval A to B into three equal time intervals and to determine the length of each of these subintervals.

I would begin with 1/2 and divide that by 3:  

1
--
2
====
   3
   --
    1

Inverting the fraction in the denom. and multiplying, we get

1      1       1
-- * ---- = -----
2      3        6

So Amy will spend 1/6 th of an hour, or 10 minutes, on each chore.

Note that 3 times 1/6 comes out to 1/2 (hour), which is were we started.

Mr Smith bought x number of shirts for the new members of her chorus. The cost for x number of shirts, including $3.99 shipping
fiasKO [112]

We are given that the cost of each shirt = $12.25

It is given that she bought total 'x' shirts, each of cost $12,25.

So, the cost of 'x' shirts is  dollars

Also, there is a shipping charge of $3.99

So, the total cost of 'x' shirts is

Since, the shirts cost her total $77.49.

We have the equation,

12.25x + 3.99 = 77.49

Solution for dy/dx+xsin 2 y=x^3 cos^2y
vichka [17]
Rearrange the ODE as

\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+x\sin2y=x^3\cos^2y
\sec^2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}+x\sin2y\sec^2y=x^3

Take u=\tan y, so that \dfrac{\mathrm du}{\mathrm dx}=\sec^2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}.

Supposing that |y|, we have \tan^{-1}u=y, from which it follows that

\sin2y=2\sin y\cos y=2\dfrac u{\sqrt{u^2+1}}\dfrac1{\sqrt{u^2+1}}=\dfrac{2u}{u^2+1}
\sec^2y=1+\tan^2y=1+u^2

So we can write the ODE as

\dfrac{\mathrm du}{\mathrm dx}+2xu=x^3

which is linear in u. Multiplying both sides by e^{x^2}, we have

e^{x^2}\dfrac{\mathrm du}{\mathrm dx}+2xe^{x^2}u=x^3e^{x^2}
\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[e^{x^2}u\bigg]=x^3e^{x^2}

Integrate both sides with respect to x:

\displaystyle\int\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}\bigg[e^{x^2}u\bigg]\,\mathrm dx=\int x^3e^{x^2}\,\mathrm dx
e^{x^2}u=\displaystyle\int x^3e^{x^2}\,\mathrm dx

Substitute t=x^2, so that \mathrm dt=2x\,\mathrm dx. Then

\displaystyle\int x^3e^{x^2}\,\mathrm dx=\frac12\int 2xx^2e^{x^2}\,\mathrm dx=\frac12\int te^t\,\mathrm dt

Integrate the right hand side by parts using

f=t\implies\mathrm df=\mathrm dt
\mathrm dg=e^t\,\mathrm dt\implies g=e^t
\displaystyle\frac12\int te^t\,\mathrm dt=\frac12\left(te^t-\int e^t\,\mathrm dt\right)

You should end up with

e^{x^2}u=\dfrac12e^{x^2}(x^2-1)+C
u=\dfrac{x^2-1}2+Ce^{-x^2}
\tan y=\dfrac{x^2-1}2+Ce^{-x^2}

and provided that we restrict |y|, we can write

y=\tan^{-1}\left(\dfrac{x^2-1}2+Ce^{-x^2}\right)
