Answer:
the answer is 56
Step-by-step explanation:
The zeroes of <span>f(x) = x^5-12x^2+32x can be found by factoring,
</span><span>f(x) = x^5-12x^2+32x=(x-8)(x-4)
By the zero product theorem, (x-8)=0 or (x-4)=0 which means
x=8 or x=4.
So the zeroes of f(x) are S={4,8}</span>
Answer:
b. (1, 3, -2)
Step-by-step explanation:
A graphing calculator or scientific calculator can solve this system of equations for you, or you can use any of the usual methods: elimination, substitution, matrix methods, Cramer's rule.
It can also work well to try the offered choices in the given equations. Sometimes, it can work best to choose an equation other than the first one for this. The last equation here seems a good one for eliminating bad answers:
a: -1 -5(1) +2(-4) = -14 ≠ -18
b: 1 -5(3) +2(-2) = -18 . . . . potential choice
c: 3 -5(8) +2(1) = -35 ≠ -18
d: 2 -5(-3) +2(0) = 17 ≠ -18
This shows choice B as the only viable option. Further checking can be done to make sure that solution works in the other equations:
2(1) +(3) -3(-2) = 11 . . . . choice B works in equation 1
-(1) +2(3) +4(-2) = -3 . . . choice B works in equation 2
Split up the interval [2, 5] into

equally spaced subintervals, then consider the value of

at the right endpoint of each subinterval.
The length of the interval is

, so the length of each subinterval would be

. This means the first rectangle's height would be taken to be

when

, so that the height is

, and its base would have length

. So the area under

over the first subinterval is

.
Continuing in this fashion, the area under

over the

th subinterval is approximated by

, and so the Riemann approximation to the definite integral is

and its value is given exactly by taking

. So the answer is D (and the value of the integral is exactly 39).
