If the integral as written in my comment is accurate, then we have

I=\displaystyle\int_{3/2}^2\sqrt{(x-1)(3-x)}\,\mathrm dx

Expand the polynomial, then complete the square within the square root:

(x-1)(3-x)=-x^2+4x-3=1-(x-2)^2

I=\displaystyle\int_{3/2}^2\sqrt{1-(x-2)^2}\,\mathrm dx

Let x=2-\cos\theta and \mathrm dx=\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta:

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sqrt{1-(2-\cos\theta-2)^2}\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sqrt{1-\cos^2\theta}\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sqrt{\sin^2\theta}\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

Recall that \sqrt{x^2}=|x| for all x, but for all \theta in the integration interval we have \sin\theta>0. So \sqrt{\sin^2\theta}=\sin\theta:

I=\displaystyle\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}\sin^2\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

Recall the double angle identity,

\sin^2\theta=\dfrac{1-\cos(2\theta)}2

I=\displaystyle\frac12\int_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}(1-\cos(2\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta

I=\dfrac\theta2-\dfrac{\sin(2\theta)}4\bigg|_{\pi/3}^{\pi/2}

I=\dfrac\pi4-\left(\dfrac\pi6-\dfrac{\sqrt3}8\right)=\boxed{\dfrac\pi{12}+\dfrac{\sqrt3}8}

You can determine the more general result in the same way.

I=\displaystyle\int_p^q\sqrt{(x-a)(b-x)}\,\mathrm dx

Complete the square to get

(x-a)(b-x)=-(x-a)(x-b)=-x^2+(a+b)x-ab=\dfrac{(a+b)^2}4-ab-\left(x-\dfrac{a+b}2\right)^2

and let c=\frac{(a+b)^2}4-ab for brevity. Note that

c=\dfrac{(a+b)^2}4-ab=\dfrac{a^2-2ab+b^2}4=\dfrac{(a-b)^2}4

I=\displaystyle\int_p^q\sqrt{c-\left(x-\dfrac{a+b}2\right)^2}\,\mathrm dx

Make the following substitution,

x=\dfrac{a+b}2-\sqrt c\,\cos\theta

\mathrm dx=\sqrt c\,\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

and the integral reduces like before to

I=\displaystyle\int_P^Q\sqrt{c-c\cos^2\theta}\,\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta

where

p=\dfrac{a+b}2-\sqrt c\,\cos P\implies P=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{\frac{a+b}2-p}{\sqrt c}

q=\dfrac{a+b}2-\sqrt c\,\cos Q\implies Q=\cos^{-1}\dfrac{\frac{a+b}2-q}{\sqrt c}

I=\displaystyle\frac{\sqrt c}2\int_P^Q(1-\cos(2\theta))\,\mathrm d\theta

(Depending on the interval [<em>p</em>, <em>q</em>] and thus [<em>P</em>, <em>Q</em>], the square root of cosine squared may not always reduce to sine.)

Resolving the integral and replacing <em>c</em>, with

c=\dfrac{(a-b)^2}4\implies\sqrt c=\dfrac{|a-b|}2=\dfrac{b-a}2

because a, gives

I=\dfrac{b-a}2(\cos(2P)-\cos(2Q)-(P-Q))

Without knowing <em>p</em> and <em>q</em> explicitly, there's not much more to say.

PLSSS HELP PANICKING
devlian [24]

Answer:

<h2>John has $15 and Alex has $33</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

a systems of equations can be made from the information on the problem

x+y=48

x=2y+3

since x= 2y+3 substitute 2y+3 in the firat equation to get:

(2y+3)+y=48  -> 3y+3=48 -> 3y=45  -> y=15

plug in 15 for y in the second equation to solve for x

x+15 =48 --> x=33
