$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{2 \times 8}{3 \times 8}=\frac{16}{24} \\ \\
\frac{7}{8}=\frac{7 \times 3}{8 \times 3}=\frac{21}{24} \\ \\
16$

7/8 is greater.

7/8 is greater because the first step is to make all the fractions equivalent.
$\frac{21}{24} = \frac{7}{8}$
Now...
$\frac{16}{24} = \frac{2}{3}$

So 7/8 is greater than 2/3.

Find r(t) if r'(t) = 5t4i + 6t5j + t k and r(1) = i + j.

Vladimir [108]

$\mathbf r(t)=\displaystyle\int(5t^4\,\mathbf i+6t^5\,\mathbf j+t\,\mathbf k)\,\mathrm dt$
$\mathbf r(t)=(t^5+C_1)\,\mathbf i+(t^6+C_2)\,\mathbf j+\left(\dfrac12t^2+C_3\right)\,\mathbf k$

Given $\mathbf r(1)=\mathbf i+\mathbf j$ , we have

$\begin{cases}1^5+C_1=1\\\\1^6+C_2=1\\\\\dfrac121^2+C_3=0\end{cases}\implies C_1=0,C_2=0,C_3=-\dfrac12$

so that the particular solution is

$\mathbf r(t)=t^5\,\mathbf i+t^6\,\mathbf j+\dfrac12(t^2-1)\,\mathbf k$

Divide: (-7x+x^2+15)÷(-3+x)

kakasveta [241]

Since the divisor is in the form (x + #) or (x - #), This can be done by synthetic division.
First put the polynomial ion descending order: x^2 - 7x + 15
Take the coefficients of the terms and follow these steps:

3 | 1 -7 15
   3 -12
___________ Bring down the 1, multiply the 3 by the 1 and place under the
   1 -4    3 -7, then add.
   Multiply 3 by -4, place under the 15, then add.
   The bottom row is our answer. Since the problem started with a second power, the answer will start with a first power.
The bottom row are the coefficients of the terms and the last number is the remainder.
x - 4 remainder 3 ALSO WRITTEN x - 4 + 3/(x -3)
