Answer:

15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

My interpretation of your math expression is "2 1/2 divided by 1/3."

I prefer to write this as:

5 1

----- ÷ -----

2 3

which is equivalent to:

5 3

----- * ----- = 15/2

2 1

Answer:

The number of pies does the baker have left is 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A baker made 20 pies. A Boy Scout troop buys one–fourth of his pies, a preschool teacher buys one–third of his pies, and a caterer buys one–sixth of his pies.

To find : How many pies does the baker have left?

Solution :

Let x be the number of pies does the baker have left.

According to question,

Number of pies buys,

One-fourth = $\frac{1}{4}$

One-third = $\frac{1}{3}$

One-sixth = $\frac{1}{6}$

i.e. $x=20-(20\times \frac{1}{4}+20\times \frac{1}{3}+20\times \frac{1}{6})$

$x=20-(5+20\times \frac{1}{3}+10\times \frac{1}{3})$

$x=20-(5+\frac{20+10}{3})$

$x=20-(5+ \frac{30}{3})$

$x=20-(5+10)$

$x=20-(15)$

$x=5$

The number of pies does the baker have left is 15.

I really need help with this, thank you!!!

Answer:

6. 60°

7. 5.19559

8. 7.96011

Step-by-step explanation:

6. The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, so the remaining angle is ...

180° -40° -80° = 60°

7. The lengths of sides are proportional to the sine of the opposite angle (Law of Sines).

a = c·sin(A)/sin(C) = 7·sin(40°)/sin(60°) ≈ 5.19559

8. Same explanation as 7.

b = c·sin(B)/sin(C) = 7·sin(80°)/sin(60°) ≈ 7.96011

find the volume of the solid formed by revolving the region bounded by the graphs of y = 4x - x^2 and f(x) = x^2 from [0,2] abou

Neko [114]

Answer:

$v = \frac{32\pi}{3}$

or

$v=33.52$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$f(x) = 4x - x^2$

$g(x) = x^2$

$[a,b] = [0,2]$

Required

The volume of the solid formed

Rotating about the x-axis.

Using the washer method to calculate the volume, we have:

$\int dv = \int\limit^b_a \pi(f(x)^2 - g(x)^2) dx$

Integrate

$v = \int\limit^b_a \pi(f(x)^2 - g(x)^2)\ dx$

$v = \pi \int\limit^b_a (f(x)^2 - g(x)^2)\ dx$

Substitute values for a, b, f(x) and g(x)

$v = \pi \int\limit^2_0 ((4x - x^2)^2 - (x^2)^2)\ dx$

Evaluate the exponents

$v = \pi \int\limit^2_0 (16x^2 - 4x^3 - 4x^3 + x^4 - x^4)\ dx$

Simplify like terms

$v = \pi \int\limit^2_0 (16x^2 - 8x^3 )\ dx$

Factor out 8

$v = 8\pi \int\limit^2_0 (2x^2 - x^3 )\ dx$

Integrate

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{2x^{2+1}}{2+1} - \frac{x^{3+1}}{3+1} ]|\limit^2_0$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{2x^{3}}{3} - \frac{x^{4}}{4} ]|\limit^2_0$

Substitute 2 and 0 for x, respectively

$v = 8\pi ([ \frac{2*2^{3}}{3} - \frac{2^{4}}{4} ] - [ \frac{2*0^{3}}{3} - \frac{0^{4}}{4} ])$

$v = 8\pi ([ \frac{2*2^{3}}{3} - \frac{2^{4}}{4} ] - [ 0 - 0])$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{2*2^{3}}{3} - \frac{2^{4}}{4} ]$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{16}{3} - \frac{16}{4} ]$

Take LCM

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{16*4- 16 * 3}{12}]$

$v = 8\pi [ \frac{64- 48}{12}]$

$v = 8\pi * \frac{16}{12}$

Simplify

$v = 8\pi * \frac{4}{3}$

$v = \frac{32\pi}{3}$

or

$v=\frac{32}{3} * \frac{22}{7}$

$v=\frac{32*22}{3*7}$

$v=\frac{704}{21}$

$v=33.52$
