If the stack is 21ins and each board is 1 3/2 ins thick that means you 21/(1 3/2) so you end up getting 8.4. Because you can't have a part of a board you round the number down to 8 boards.

How do you do this question?

Answer:

C) π/6

Step-by-step explanation:

The area under the curve from x=-π/2 to x=k is 3 times the area under the curve from x=k to x=π/2.

$\int\limits^k_{-\frac{\pi }{2}} {cos\ x} \, dx = 3\int\limits^{\frac{\pi }{2}}_k {cos\ x} \, dx\\sin\ x\ |^{k}_{-\frac{\pi }{2}} = 3\ sin\ x\ |^{\frac{\pi }{2}}_k\\(sin\ k - (-1)) = 3\ (1 - sin\ k)\\sin\ k + 1 = 3 - 3\ sin\ k\\4\ sin\ k = 2\\sin\ k = \frac{1}{2}\\k = \frac{\pi}{6}$

How do i solve things that dont make sense to me even though i do know but dont know

kirill [66]

Answer:

Just try to make it make sense to you.

Step-by-step explanation:

For instance, a + 1 = 5

a = 4

We know that we should switch the terms as when it comes to normal numbers ,10 + 1 = 11 , 10 = 11-1. Therefore, the only trick is not to memorise, but try to understand the logic behind it. Hope this helps in some way???
