3 0

Answer:

5/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 1/2 is the same distance from zero and one, we can use it to judge whether a fraction is closer to 0 or 1.

Since 5/8 is greater than 4/8 which is 1/2, it is closer to 1.

Since 8/10 is greater than 5/10 which is 1/2, it is closer to 1.

Since 5/12 is less than 6/12 which is 1/2, it is closer to 0.

So our answer is C. 5/12

Solve the following by elimination method <br> 11x+15y+23=0 and 7x-2y-20=0

mr Goodwill [35]

Let 11x + 15y + 23 = 0 be equation (1)
And 7x - 2y - 20 = 0 be equation (2)

Multiply equation (1) by 2:
22x + 30y + 46 = 0

Multiply equation (2) by 15:
105x - 30y - 300 = 0

Add equations (1) and (2):
22x + 105x + 30y - 30y + 46 - 300 = 0
127x - 254 = 0
127x = 254
x = 254/127
[x = 2]

Substitute x = 2 in equation (1) to find y:
11(2) + 15y + 23 = 0
22 + 15y + 23 = 0
15y + 45 = 0
15y = -45
y = -45/15
y = -3

Therefore, x = 2 and y = -3.

Which of the following is an improper integral?

guapka [62]

Answer:

A) $\displaystyle \int\limits^3_0 {\frac{x + 1}{3x - 2}} \, dx$

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Calculus</u>

Discontinuities

Removable (Hole)
Jump
Infinite (Asymptote)

Integration

Integrals
Definite Integrals
Integration Constant C
Improper Integrals

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define our answer choices:

A) $\displaystyle \int\limits^3_0 {\frac{x + 1}{3x - 2}} \, dx$

B) $\displaystyle \int\limits^3_1 {\frac{x + 1}{3x - 2}} \, dx$

C) $\displaystyle \int\limits^0_{-1} {\frac{x + 1}{3x - 2}} \, dx$

D) None of these

We can see that we would have a infinite discontinuity if x = 2/3, as it would make the denominator 0 and we cannot divide by 0. Therefore, any interval that includes the value 2/3 would have to be rewritten and evaluated as an improper integral.

Of all the answer choices, we can see that A's bounds of integration (interval) includes x = 2/3.

∴ our answer is A.
