(x - p)(2x² + 9x + 10) = (x² - 4)(2x + q)
2x³ + 9x² + 10x - 2px² - 9px - 10p = 2x³ + qx² - 8x - 4q
<u>-2x³                                                  -2x³                          </u>
         9x² + 10x - 2px² - 9px - 10p = qx² - 8x - 4q
        <u>          +8x                                        +8x          </u>
                   9x² + 18x - 2px² - 9px = qx² - 4q

Evaluate using <br> Definite integrals
swat32

Since [0,4]=[0,1]\cup(1,4], we can rewrite the integral as

\displaystyle \int_0^1f(t)\;dt + \int_1^4 f(t)\; dt

Now there is no ambiguity about the definition of f(t), because in each integral we are integrating a single part of its piecewise definition:

\displaystyle \int_0^1f(t)\;dt = \int_0^11-3t^2\;dt,\quad \int_1^4 f(t)\; dt = \int_1^4 2t\; dt

Both integrals are quite immediate: you only need to use the power rule

\displaystyle \int x^n\;dx=\dfrac{x^{n+1}}{n+1}

to get

\displaystyle \int_0^11-3t^2\;dt = \left[t-t^3\right]_0^1,\quad \int_1^4 2t\; dt = \left[t^2\right]_1^4

Now we only need to evaluate the antiderivatives:

\left[t-t^3\right]_0^1 = 1-1^3=0,\quad \left[t^2\right]_1^4 = 4^2-1^2=15

So, the final answer is 15.

Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set. Round to the nearest tenth. 15, 13, 9, 9, 7, 1, 11, 10, 13, 1, 13 mean = 8.5, m
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Mean = 9.3

Median = 10

Mode = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the mean, you would have to add up all of the numbers (102), then divide how many numbers you have with the numbers added up (9.3). To get the median, you would have to put all of the numbers that you have, in order, from least to greatest and cross off each number, one from each side before getting to the number in the middle (unless if you have an even number; works better with odd numbers, which is easier). To get the mode, you would need to find out which number appears the most, and, if there is more than one, you can put the numbers down. Hope this helps.

I need help to solve it
Sidana [21]

Answer:

She will earn £9.01 per hour after the pay rise

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate a value, given the percentage of the pay rise

From the question, the percentage is 6%

The pay rise is thus;

8.50 + 6% of 8.50

= 8.50 + (6*8.5)/100

= 8.50 + 0.51

= £9.01
