A malapropism occurs when two people use the same word to mean two different things

1 answer:

7 0

It is false that a malapropism occurs when two people use the same word to mean two different things.

A malapropism is the use of an incorrect word in place of a word with a similar sound, resulting in a nonsensical, sometimes humorous utterance.

An example of malapropism is, "Texas has a lot of electrical votes", rather than "electoral votes"

$\bf \displaystyle \int\limits_{1}^{e}\cfrac{1}{t}\cdot dt\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{doing substitution}\\\\
u=\cfrac{1}{t}\implies u=t^{-1}\implies \cfrac{du}{dt}=-t^{-2}\implies \cfrac{du}{dt}=-\cfrac{1}{t^2}\\\\\\ -t^2du=dt\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\displaystyle \int\limits_{1}^{e}u\cdot -t^2du\impliedby \textit{now, let's do some substitution on the "t"}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\$

$\bf u=\cfrac{1}{t}\implies t=\cfrac{1}{u}\implies t^2=\cfrac{1^2}{u^2}\implies t^2=\cfrac{1}{u^2}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\displaystyle \int\limits_{1}^{e}u\cdot -\cfrac{1}{u^2}\cdot du\implies -1\int\limits_{1}^{e}\cfrac{1}{u}\cdot du\implies \left. -ln|u| \cfrac{}{}\right]_1^e$

$\bf \left. -ln\left( \frac{1}{t} \right) \cfrac{}{}\right]_1^e\implies 
\left[ -ln\left( \frac{1}{e} \right) \right]-\left[ -ln\left( \frac{1}{1} \right) \right]\implies 
\left[ -ln\left( e^{-1}\right) \right]-\left[ -ln\left( 1\right) \right]

Use the formula to find the length of the radius if the area is 25 square centimeters.

Alexandra [31]

Answer:r = 2.81 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of this circle can be found using the formula

A=πr^2

Where r = radius of the circle

π is a constant whose value is 3.14

We are given the area of the circle to be 25 square centimeters. To determine the length of the radius of the circle , we will make r the subject of the formula

r^2 = A/π

Taking square root of both sides of the equation,

r = √A/π

Since A = 25 and π = 3.14,

r= √25/3.14

r = 2.82166323992

Approximating to the nearest tenth of a centimeter,

r = 2.81 centimeters

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

2 2/3 cubic feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Martha will put 1/3 of the 8 cubic feet in each pot. That is ...

(1/3)(8 ft³) = 8/3 ft³ = 2 2/3 ft³

Martha will put 2 2/3 cubic feet of soil in each pot.
