Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

we are to evaluate the Riemann sum for f(x) = 3 - \dfrac{1}{2}x from 2 ≤ x ≤ 14

where the endpoints are included with six subintervals, taking the sample points to be the left endpoints.

The Riemann sum can be computed as follows:

L_6 = \int ^{14}_{2}3- \dfrac{1}{2}x \dx = \lim_{n \to \infty} \sum \limits ^6 _{i=1} \ f (x_i -1) \Delta x

where:

\Delta x = \dfrac{b-a}{a}

a = 2

b =14

n = 6

∴

\Delta x = \dfrac{14-2}{6}

\Delta x = \dfrac{12}{6}

\Delta x =2

Hence;

x_0 = 2 \\ \\  x_1 = 2+2 =4\\ \\  x_2 = 2 + 2(2) \\ \\  x_i = 2 + 2i

Here, we are  using left end-points, then:

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

Replacing it into Riemann equation;

L_6 =  \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} \begin {pmatrix}3 - \dfrac{1}{2} \begin {pmatrix}  2+2 (i-1)  \end {pmatrix} \end {pmatrix}2

L_6 =  \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} 6 - (2+2(i-1))

L_6 =  \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} 6 - (2+2i-2)

L_6 =  \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} 6 -2i

L_6 =  \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} 6 -   \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} 2i

L_6 =  \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} 6 - 2  \lim_{n \to \infty}  \sum \imits ^{6}_{i=1} i

Estimating the integrals, we have :

= 6n - 2 ( \dfrac{n(n-1)}{2})

= 6n - n(n+1)

replacing thevalue of n = 6 (i.e the sub interval number), we have:

= 6(6) - 6(6+1)

= 36 - 36 -6

= -6

The distance d, in centimeters, that a diving board bends below its resting position when you stand at its end is dependent on y
kaheart [24]

Answer:

d(1) = -3 and d(2)= -28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the distance d, in centimeters, that a diving board bends below its resting position when you stand at its end is dependent on your distance x, in meters, from the stabilized point

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

For finding out the distances for x=1 and x=2

let us substitute 1 and 2 for x

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

d(2) = -4(2^3)+2^2 \\= -28

d(1) = -3 and d(2)= -28

In 1/8 days, a construction crew built 1/4 miles of a road. What is the unit rate in miles per day.
tigry1 [53]

The unit rate of road construction is 2 miles per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

In \frac{1}{8} days \frac{1}{4} miles road is constructed.

To find

The rate of road constructed per day

Method

We will apply unitary method to solve it.

Now,

In \frac{1}{8} days \frac{1}{4} miles road is constructed.

In 1 day the road will be constructed = \frac{1}{4} ÷ \frac{1}{8} miles

= 2 miles

Can anyone help I do t know how to find all seven angles
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

1. 110

2. 70

3. 70

4. 110

5. 110

6. 70

7. 70

Step-by-step explanation:

when to lines cross, opposite angles are equal so like 1 and 4 are equal

1, 4, and 5 are equal to 110

to find 2, 3, 6, and 7, subtract 110 from 180
