Thank you for posting your question here at brainly. I hope the answer will help you. Feel free to ask more questions here.

y = 7x - 4x² 

<span>7x - 4x² = 0 </span>

<span>x(7 - 4x) = 0 </span>

<span>x = 0, 7/4 </span>

<span>Find the area of the bounded region... </span>

<span>A = ∫ 7x - 4x² dx |(0 to 7/4) </span>

<span>A = 7/2 x² - 4/3 x³ |(0 to 7/4) </span>

<span>A = 7/2(7/4)² - 4/3(7/4)³ - 0 = 3.573 </span>

<span>Half of this area is 1.786, now set up an integral that is equal to this area but bounded by the parabola and the line going through the origin... </span>

<span>y = mx + c </span>

<span>c = 0 since it goes through the origin </span>

<span>The point where the line intersects the parabola we shall call (a, b) </span>

<span>y = mx ===> b = m(a) </span>

<span>Slope = m = b/a </span>

<span>Now we need to integrate from 0 to a to find the area bounded by the parabola and the line... </span>

<span>1.786 = ∫ 7x - 4x² - (b/a)x dx |(0 to a) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)x² - (4/3)x³ - (b/2a)x² |(0 to a) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (b/2a)a² - 0 </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - b(a/2) </span>

<span>Remember that (a, b) is also a point on the parabola so y = 7x - 4x² ==> b = 7a - 4a² </span>
<span>Substitute... </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (7a - 4a²)(a/2) </span>

<span>1.786 = (7/2)a² - (4/3)a³ - (7/2)a² + 2a³ </span>

<span>(2/3)a³ = 1.786 </span>

<span>a = ∛[(3/2)(1.786)] </span>

<span>a = 1.39 </span>

<span>b = 7(1.39) - 4(1.39)² = 2.00 </span>

<span>Slope = m = b/a = 2.00 / 1.39 = 1.44</span>

Is this equation a linear function? If so give the intersepts 12x+3y=6
Katarina [22]
Dear Mendozaaj55, 12x + 3y = 6 is a linear function. To find the y-intercept set x = 0 and solve --> 3y = 6 --> y = 2. Therefore, the y-intercept is (0,2). To find the x-intercept, set y = 0 and solve. 12x = 6 ---> x = .5---> the x-intercept is the coordinate (.5, 0). Best.

Need Help please answer

For the 2nd part of 2. just plug in what you have for G in your previous graph into the equation. This will give you H for all 5 columns . Like 3×8(-1+5)= h = 3× 32= 96 so H should equal 96 and so on as far as this function.

For number 3. The equation is given so just plug in your T for time which is 3 seconds, so...-16(3)^2+90(3) = H the height at 3 seconds. I'm doing it in my head but should be the height is 414. You should also say whether it's ft or inches etc because the teacher or yourself left that out of the equation which is also vital lol.

Tell whether the given value is a solution of the inequality.<br> x + 1 &gt; 10; x = 9
Oliga [24]

Answer:

given x+1 > 10,

x > 10 - 1

x > 9

which means x MUST BE more than 9 , which also means 9 isnt included in the inequality therefore x = 9 is not a solution.
