Why is C the answer for this question?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Grace [21]3 years ago
8 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A left Riemann sum approximates a definite integral as:

\int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx \approx \sum\limits_{k=1}^{n}f(x_{k}) \Delta x \\where\ \Delta x = \frac{b-a}{n} \ and\ x_{k}=a+\Delta x \times (k-1)

Given ∫₂⁸ cos(x²) dx:

a = 2, b = 8, and f(x) = cos(x²)

Therefore, Δx = 6/n and x = 2 + (6/n) (k − 1).

Plugging into the sum:

∑₁ⁿ cos((2 + (6/n) (k − 1))²) (6/n)

Therefore, the answer is C.  Notice that answer D would be a right Riemann sum rather than a left (uses k instead of k−1).

Can you please help me with 1-12? Thank you

Answer:

1. 18.84 in

2. 56.52 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference of a circle is the distance around the circle. Its found using the formula C = πd or C=2πr. The variable d represents the diameter or the distance from one edge of the circle to the other through the cent. The variable r represents the radius of a circle or the distance from one edge to the center. Use the formula by substituting a diameter or radius then simplify.

1. C = πd = π(6) = 3.14(6) = 18.84 in

2. C = 2πr = 2(3.14)(9) = 56.52 cm
