3s + 2p = 85.50....multiply by -1
3s + 4p = 123
--------------------
-3s - 2p = -85.50 (result of multiplying by -1)
3s + 4p = 123
--------------------add
2p = 37.50
p = 37.50/2
p = 18.75 <=== cost of the pants

3s + 4p = 123
3s + 4(18.75) = 123
3s + 75 = 123
3s = 123 - 75
3s = 48
s = 48/3
s = 16 <=== cost of each shirt

Hello,

a)
I= \int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {sin^n(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {sin(x)*sin^{n-1}(x)} \, dx \\&#10;&#10;= [-cos(x)*sin^{n-1}(x)]_0^ \frac{\pi}{2}+(n-1)*\int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {cos(x)*sin^{n-2}(x)*cos(x)} \, dx \\&#10;&#10;=0 + (n-1)*\int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {cos^2(x)*sin^{n-2}(x)} \, dx \\&#10;&#10;= (n-1)*\int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {(1-sin^2(x))*sin^{n-2}(x)} \, dx \\&#10;= (n-1)*\int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {sin^{n-2}(x)} \, dx - (n-1)*\int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {sin^n(x) \, dx\\&#10;&#10;
I(1+n-1)= (n-1)*\int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {sin^{n-2}(x)} \, dx \\&#10;I= \dfrac{n-1}{n} *\int\limits^{ \frac{\pi}{2} }_0 {sin^{n-2}(x)} \, dx \\&#10;

I_n=  \dfrac{n-1}{n} * I_{n-2} \\&#10;&#10;I_{2n+1}=  \dfrac{2n+1-1}{2n+1} * I_{2n+1-2} \\&#10;= \dfrac{2n}{2n+1} * I_{2n-1} \\&#10;= \dfrac{(2n)*(2n-2)}{(2n+1)(2n-1)} * I_{2n-3} \\&#10;= \dfrac{(2n)*(2n-2)*...*2}{(2n+1)(2n-1)*...*3} * I_{1} \\\\&#10;&#10;I_1=1\\&#10;&#10;

Ronald measured a house and its lot and made a scale drawing. The front patio, which is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millim
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

2 metre= 1millimetre

Step-by-step explanation:

From the measurement of the house The front patio, is 14 meters wide in real life, is 7 millimeters wide in the drawing

Real life= 14 meters

Drawing= 7 millimeters,

The scale he used is 2 metre= 1millimetre

Which means he magnify the drawing by scale of 2 metre to get the real life structure.

✓Let us clarify it

14 meters = 7 millimeters

2 metre= x millimeter

If we cross multiply

7 millimeters× 2 metre= 14 metre × X millimeters

Make X subject of the formula we have

X= 1millimetres
