A box contains five slips of paper. Each slip has one of the number 4, 6, 7, 8, or 9 written on it and all numbers are used. The

first player reaches into the box and draws two slips and adds the two numbers. If the sum is even, the player wins. If the sum is odd, the player loses.

A. If the player chooses 6, 4, and 8 each time, they have 3/5 chances to win.

6+4= 10

6+8= 14

8+4= 12

These are all even so as long as they get one of these combinations they will win

b. All three combinations still work when multiplied

6*4=24
6*8=48
8*4= 32

Find the value of the integral that converges.<br> ∫^-5_-[infinity] x^-2 dx.
Bingel [31]

Answer:

\int_{-\infty}^{-5} x^{-2}dx= \frac{1}{5} + \lim_{x\to -\infty} \frac{1}{x} =\frac{1}{5}

Because the \lim_{x\to -\infty} \frac{1}{x} =0

The integral converges to \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we want to find the following integral:

\int_{-\infty}^{-5} x^{-2}dx

And we can solve the integral on this way:

\int_{-\infty}^{-5} x^{-2}dx= \frac{x^{-2+1}}{-2+1} \Big|_{-\infty}^{-5}

\int_{-\infty}^{-5} x^{-2}dx= -\frac{1}{x} \Big|_{-\infty}^{-5}

And if we evaluate the integral using the fundamental theorem of calculus we got:

\int_{-\infty}^{-5} x^{-2}dx= \frac{1}{5} + \lim_{x\to -\infty} \frac{1}{x} =\frac{1}{5}

Because the \lim_{x\to -\infty} \frac{1}{x} =0

The integral converges to \frac{1}{5}
