Answer:

NQ = 26 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A line bisector divides a line into two equal segments.

Given that line l is the bisector of segment NQ, it then means it divides NQ into two equal segments, namely, segment NP and segment PQ.

Thus, NP = ½ of segment NQ

Therefore, if NP = 13 cm,

13 = ½*NQ

multiply both sides by 2

2*13 = NQ

26 = NQ

NQ = 26 cm

Evaluate the line integral, where c is the given curve. c y3 ds,

postnew [5]

Parameterizing $\mathcal C$ by

$\mathbf r(t)=(t^3,t)$

with $0\le t\le2$ , we have

$\mathrm ds=\|\mathbf r'(t)\|\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt{(3t^2)^2+1^2}\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt{9t^4+1}\,\mathrm dt$

So

$\displaystyle\int_{\mathcal C}y^3\,\mathrm ds=\int_{t=0}^{t=2}t^3\sqrt{9t^4+1}\,\mathrm dt$
$=\displaystyle\frac1{36}\int_0^236t^3\sqrt{9t^4+1}\,\mathrm dt$
$=\displaystyle\frac1{36}\int_{u=1}^{u=145}\sqrt u\,\mathrm du$
$=\dfrac{145^{3/2}-1}{54}$

Evaluate 3.6x + 4.5y when x=3 and y=7

Ilya [14]

The answer is 42.3

Step by Step:

Let our variable be n, standing for number.

3.6(x) + 4.5(y) = n
3.6(3) + 4.5(7) = n
10.8 + 31.5 = n
n = 42.3
