Next Question

Correct

The best estimate for the lizard population is 450.

marked lizards counted

total lizards counted

=  

total marked lizards

estimated lizard population

→  

16

200

=  

36

p

→ p = 450

Use the function f(x) to answer the questions.

<u>Part A</u>

<u />-16x^2 + 60x+16=0\\\\4x^2 - 15x-4=0\\\\(4x+1)(x-4)=0\\\\x=-\frac{1}{4}, 4

<u>Part B</u>

The vertex of the graph will be a maximum because the leading coefficient is negative.

The x coordinate of the vertex is -\frac{60}{2(-16)}=\frac{15}{8}.

When x=15/8, f\left(\frac{15}{8} \right)=\frac{289}{4}.

So, the vertex has coordinates \left(\frac{15}{8}, \frac{289}{4} \right)

<u>Part C</u>

Plot the two x-intercepts and the vertex and then draw a curve in the shape of a parabola passing through them.

The graph is in the attached image.

Integrate the following
enot [183]

I suppose you mean to have the entire numerator under the square root?

\displaystyle\int_2^4\frac{\sqrt{x^2-4}}{x^2}\,\mathrm dx

We can use a trigonometric substitution to start:

x=2\sec t\implies\mathrm dx=2\sec t\tan t\,\mathrm dt

Then for x=2, t=\sec^{-1}1=0; for x=4, t=\sec^{-1}2=\frac\pi3. So the integral is equivalent to

\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/3}\frac{\sqrt{(2\sec t)^2-4}}{(2\sec t)^2}(2\sec t\tan t)\,\mathrm dt=\int_0^{\pi/3}\frac{\tan^2t}{\sec t}\,\mathrm dt

We can write

\dfrac{\tan^2t}{\sec t}=\dfrac{\frac{\sin^2t}{\cos^2t}}{\frac1{\cos t}}=\dfrac{\sin^2t}{\cos t}=\dfrac{1-\cos^2t}{\cos t}=\sec t-\cos t

so the integral becomes

\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/3}(\sec t-\cos t)\,\mathrm dt=\boxed{\ln(2+\sqrt3)-\frac{\sqrt3}2}
