Answer:

  length = 5√26

Step-by-step explanation:

The arc length of f(x) on the interval [a, b] is given by ...

\displaystyle d=\int\limits_a^b{\sqrt{1+f'(x)^2}}\,dx

In the present case, we have ...

  f(x) = 5x -1

  f'(x) = 5

on the interval [a, b] = [-3, 2]. Then the arc length is ...

\displaystyle d=\int\limits_{-3}^2{\sqrt{1+5^2}}\,dx=\sqrt{26}(2-(-3))\\\\d=5\sqrt{26}

_____

<em>Check</em>

We're looking for the distance between the points ...

  (-3, f(-3)) = (-3, -16)

and

  (2, f(2)) = (2, 9)

Using the distance formula, the distance is ...

  d = √((2-(-3))² +(9-(-16))²) = √(5² +25²) = 5√(1+5²)

  d = 5√26 . . . . . matches the integral result

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(x^2+9x+10)(x-2)= \\\\x^3-2x^2+9x^2-18x+10x-20= \\\\x^3+7x^2-8x-20

Jimmy is incorrect.

Using long division, you can find that the real answer.

First, subtract x^2(x-2) from the original expression, leaving you with 9x^2+2x-40.

Next, subtract 9x(x-2) from the expression, leaving you with 20x-40. Finally, subtract 20(x-2) from the expression, leaving you with a remainder of 0. This means that the real quotient is x^2+9x+20. Hope this helps!
