We're approximating the area under the graph of the function f(x)=x^3+8 over the interval [-2, 2] by

  1. partitioning the integration interval into n=4 subintervals,
  2. building rectangles whose lengths are equal to the length of the corresponding subinterval and whose heights are equal to the value of f(r_i), where r_i denotes the right endpoint of the i-th subinterval, and
  3. computing the areas of each rectangle and adding these areas together.

Splitting [-2, 2] into 4 intervals gives

[-2, -1], [-1, 0], [0, 1], [1, 2]

Each subinterval has length 1. The right endpoints of the i-th subinterval, where 1\le i\le4, are given by the (arithmetic) sequence

r_i=-1+1(i-1)=i-2

The area of the rectangle over the i-th subinterval is

A_i=f(i-2)=(i-2)^3+8=i^3-6i^2+6i

and so the definite integral is approximately

\displaystyle\int_{-2}^2(x^3+8)\,\mathrm dx\approx\sum_{i=1}^4(i^3-6i^2+6i)

There are well-known formulas for computing the sums of powers of consecutive (positive) integers. The ones we care about are

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^ni=\frac{n(n+1)}2

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^ni^2=\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}6

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^ni^3=\frac{n^2(n+1)^2}4

So we get

\displaystyle\int_{-2}^2(x^3+8)\,\mathrm dx\approx40

ladessa [460]

Answer:

C. Point A is the center of the circle that passes that passes through the points E, F and G and is the center of the circle that passes through the points X, Y and Z.

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of insribed circle into the triangle is the point where the angle bisectors of the triangle meet.

The center of circumsribed circle over the triangle is the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides meet.

Line segments ZE, FY and GX are both angle bisectors and perpendicular bisectors of the sides, so the point of intersection of line segments ZE, FY and GX is the center of inscribed circle into the triangle and the center of the circumscribed circle over the triangle. Inscribed circle passes through the points X, Y and Z. Circumscribed circle passes through the points E, F and G. So, point A is the center of the circle that passes that passes through the points E, F and G and is the center of the circle that passes through the points X, Y and Z.
