No. Four times five is twenty, so if Andrea has five five dollar bills, she can afford the tennis shoes. <span />

PLEASE HELP QUICK ITS TIMED

juin [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I think what they are asking is to subtract the 3 tokens from 21 tokens he already has giving us 18. and since it says "Twice the number of tokens" I'm assuming you divide 2 from 18 giving you 9 tokens.

Find the integral using substitution or a formula.

Nadusha1986 [10]

$\rm \int \dfrac{x^2+7}{x^2+2x+5}~dx$

Derivative of the denominator:
$\rm (x^2+2x+5)'=2x+2$

Hmm our numerator is 2x+7. Ok this let's us know that a simple u-substitution is NOT going to work. But let's apply some clever Algebra to the numerator splitting it up into two separate fractions. Split the +7 into +2 and +5.

$\rm \int \dfrac{x^2+2+5}{x^2+2x+5}~dx$

and then split the fraction,

$\rm \int \dfrac{x^2+2}{x^2+2x+5}~dx+\int\dfrac{5}{x^2+2x+5}~dx$

Based on our previous test, we know that a simple substitution will work for the first integral: $\rm \quad u=x^2+2x+5\qquad\to\qquad du=2x+2~dx$

So the first integral changes,

$\rm \int \dfrac{1}{u}~du+\int\dfrac{5}{x^2+2x+5}~dx$

integrating to a log,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\int\dfrac{5}{x^2+2x+5}~dx$

Other one is a little tricky. We'll need to complete the square on the denominator. After that it will look very similar to our arctangent integral so perhaps we can just match it up to the identity.

$\rm x^2+2x+5=(x^2+2x+1)+4=(x+1)^2+2^2$

So we have this going on,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\int\dfrac{5}{(x+1)^2+2^2}~dx$

Let's factor the 5 out of the intergral,
and the 4 from the denominator,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\frac54\int\dfrac{1}{\frac{(x+1)^2}{2^2}+1}~dx$

Bringing all that stuff together as a single square,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\frac54\int\dfrac{1}{\left(\dfrac{x+1}{2}\right)^2+1}~dx$

Making the substitution: $\rm \quad u=\dfrac{x+1}{2}\qquad\to\qquad 2du=dx$

giving us,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\frac54\int\dfrac{1}{\left(u\right)^2+1}~2du$

simplying a lil bit,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\frac52\int\dfrac{1}{u^2+1}~du$

and hopefully from this point you recognize your arctangent integral,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\frac52arctan(u)$

undo your substitution as a final step,
and include a constant of integration,

$\rm ln|x^2+2x+5|+\frac52arctan\left(\frac{x+1}{2}\right)+c$

Hope that helps!
Lemme know if any steps were too confusing.
