So hmm the first term is -2

and if we divide one term by the term before it, we'd get the "common ratio" "r"

so hmm say -32/8 that gives us -4, so r = -4

thus \bf n^{th}\textit{ term of a geometric sequence}\\\\
a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\qquad 
\begin{cases}
a_1=\textit{first term}\\
r=\textit{common ratio}\\
----------\\
a_1=-2\\
r=-4
\end{cases}\implies a_n=-2(-4)^{n-1}

Write the integral that gives the length of the curve y = f (x) = ∫0 to 4.5x sin t dt on the interval ​[0,π​].
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

Arc length =\int_0^{\pi} \sqrt{1+[(4.5sin(4.5x))]^2}\ dx

Arc length =9.75053

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length of the curve is given by \int_a^b \sqrt{1+[f'(x)]^2}\ dx

Here, f(x)=\int_0^{4.5x}sin(t) \ dt interval [0, \pi]

Now, f'(x)=\frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} x} \int_0^{4.5x}sin(t) \ dt

f'(x)=\frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} x}\left ( [-cos(t)]_0^{4.5x} \right )

f'(x)=\frac{\mathrm{d} }{\mathrm{d} x}\left ( -cos(4.5x)+1 \right )

f'(x)=4.5sin(4.5x)

Now, the arc length is \int_0^{\pi} \sqrt{1+[f'(x)]^2}\ dx

\int_0^{\pi} \sqrt{1+[(4.5sin(4.5x))]^2}\ dx

After solving, Arc length =9.75053

The volume of a wooden block is 6.3 cubic inches .this equivalent to how many cubic centimeters
Natalija [7]

Answer:

103.24\ cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1\ in=2.54\ cm

we have

6.3\ in^3

Convert in³ to cm³

6.3\ in^3=6.3(2.54^3)=103.24\ cm^3
