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

Suppose that the duration of a particular type of criminal trial is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 22 days and
Alika [10]

Answer:

25.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean number of days (μ) = 22 days

Standard deviation (σ) = 6 days

Z-score for the 72nd percentile (according to tabulated values) = 0.583

The z-score for any number of days, X, is determined by:

z=\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}

The value of X that is greater than 72% of the trial times is:

0.583=\frac{X-22}{6}\\ X=25.5\ days

Therefore, 72% of all of these types of trials are completed within 25.5 days.

The data in the table represents the volume of helium, in cubic feet, inside a balloon relative to the elapsed time in minutes.
tigry1 [53]

The slope of this linear equation that models the data indicate: B. the volume of helium in the balloon decreases at a rate of 0.1 cubic per minute.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function can be defined as a type of function whose equation is graphically represented by a straight line on the cartesian coordinate.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

A slope is also referred to as gradient and it's typically used to describe both the ratio, direction and steepness of the function of a straight line.

<h3>How to calculate the slope of a line?</h3>

Mathematically, the slope of any straight line can be calculated by using this formula;

Slope = \frac{Change\;in\;y\;axis}{Change\;in\;x\;axis}\\\\Slope = \frac{y_2\;-\;y_1}{x_2\;-\;x_1}

Substituting the given points into the formula, we have;

Slope = (5 - 5.5)/(10 - 5)

Slope = -0.5/5

Slope = -0.1.

In conclusion, we can infer and logically deduce that the slope of this linear equation that models the data indicate the volume of helium in the balloon decreases at a rate of 0.1 cubic per minute.
