Answer:

9 feet will the cat cover on 24 steps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A dog takes 3 steps to walk the same distance for which a cat takes 4 steps.

⇒ 3 steps of dog=4 steps of Cat

If 1 step of the dogs cover $\frac{1}{2}$ feet

then,

4 steps of cat=3 steps of dog

24 steps of cat= $\frac{3}{4}\times(24)$ =18 steps of dog

Also, 1 step of the dogs cover= $\frac{1}{2}$ feet

18 steps of the dogs cover=9 feet

therefore, 24 steps of cat will cover 9 feet .

87=(T1+T2+T3+T4+T+T6)/6
87=(93+87+82+86+x+(x-4))/6

Please answer number six I will give brainliest thank you!

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

The new median would be 15.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the median means the middle number so we can cross out 2 and 25. Then cross out 6 and 23. Then cross out 7 and 21. Next, cross out 14 and 20. Since there is only one number left, 15, that number is therefore the median.

2,17,82,257,626,1297 next one please ?

In-s [12.5K]

The easy thing to do is notice that 1^4 = 1, 2^4 = 16, 3^4 = 81, and so on, so the sequence follows the rule $n^4+1$ . The next number would then be fourth power of 7 plus 1, or 2402.

And the harder way: Denote the <em>n</em>-th term in this sequence by $a_n$ , and denote the given sequence by $\{a_n\}_{n\ge1}$ .

Let $b_n$ denote the <em>n</em>-th term in the sequence of forward differences of $\{a_n\}$ , defined by

$b_n=a_{n+1}-a_n$

for <em>n</em> ≥ 1. That is, $\{b_n\}$ is the sequence with

$b_1=a_2-a_1=17-2=15$

$b_2=a_3-a_2=82-17=65$

$b_3=a_4-a_3=175$

$b_4=a_5-a_4=369$

$b_5=a_6-a_5=671$

and so on.

Next, let $c_n$ denote the <em>n</em>-th term of the differences of $\{b_n\}$ , i.e. for <em>n</em> ≥ 1,

$c_n=b_{n+1}-b_n$

so that

$c_1=b_2-b_1=65-15=50$

$c_2=110$

$c_3=194$

$c_4=302$

etc.

Again: let $d_n$ denote the <em>n</em>-th difference of $\{c_n\}$ :

$d_n=c_{n+1}-c_n$

$d_1=c_2-c_1=60$

$d_2=84$

$d_3=108$

etc.

One more time: let $e_n$ denote the <em>n</em>-th difference of $\{d_n\}$ :

$e_n=d_{n+1}-d_n$

$e_1=d_2-d_1=24$

$e_2=24$

etc.

The fact that these last differences are constant is a good sign that $e_n=24$ for all <em>n</em> ≥ 1. Assuming this, we would see that $\{d_n\}$ is an arithmetic sequence given recursively by

$\begin{cases}d_1=60\\d_{n+1}=d_n+24&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}$

and we can easily find the explicit rule:

$d_2=d_1+24$

$d_3=d_2+24=d_1+24\cdot2$

$d_4=d_3+24=d_1+24\cdot3$

and so on, up to

$d_n=d_1+24(n-1)$

$d_n=24n+36$

Use the same strategy to find a closed form for $\{c_n\}$ , then for $\{b_n\}$ , and finally $\{a_n\}$ .

$\begin{cases}c_1=50\\c_{n+1}=c_n+24n+36&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}$

$c_2=c_1+24\cdot1+36$

$c_3=c_2+24\cdot2+36=c_1+24(1+2)+36\cdot2$

$c_4=c_3+24\cdot3+36=c_1+24(1+2+3)+36\cdot3$

and so on, up to

$c_n=c_1+24(1+2+3+\cdots+(n-1))+36(n-1)$

Recall the formula for the sum of consecutive integers:

$1+2+3+\cdots+n=\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^nk=\frac{n(n+1)}2$

$\implies c_n=c_1+\dfrac{24(n-1)n}2+36(n-1)$

$\implies c_n=12n^2+24n+14$

$\begin{cases}b_1=15\\b_{n+1}=b_n+12n^2+24n+14&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}$

$b_2=b_1+12\cdot1^2+24\cdot1+14$

$b_3=b_2+12\cdot2^2+24\cdot2+14=b_1+12(1^2+2^2)+24(1+2)+14\cdot2$

$b_4=b_3+12\cdot3^2+24\cdot3+14=b_1+12(1^2+2^2+3^2)+24(1+2+3)+14\cdot3$

and so on, up to

$b_n=b_1+12(1^2+2^2+3^2+\cdots+(n-1)^2)+24(1+2+3+\cdots+(n-1))+14(n-1)$

Recall the formula for the sum of squares of consecutive integers:

$1^2+2^2+3^2+\cdots+n^2=\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^nk^2=\frac{n(n+1)(2n+1)}6$

$\implies b_n=15+\dfrac{12(n-1)n(2(n-1)+1)}6+\dfrac{24(n-1)n}2+14(n-1)$

$\implies b_n=4n^3+6n^2+4n+1$

$\begin{cases}a_1=2\\a_{n+1}=a_n+4n^3+6n^2+4n+1&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}$

$a_2=a_1+4\cdot1^3+6\cdot1^2+4\cdot1+1$

$a_3=a_2+4(1^3+2^3)+6(1^2+2^2)+4(1+2)+1\cdot2$

$a_4=a_3+4(1^3+2^3+3^3)+6(1^2+2^2+3^2)+4(1+2+3)+1\cdot3$

$\implies a_n=a_1+4\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^3k^3+6\sum_{k=1}^3k^2+4\sum_{k=1}^3k+\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}1$

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^nk^3=\frac{n^2(n+1)^2}4$

$\implies a_n=2+\dfrac{4(n-1)^2n^2}4+\dfrac{6(n-1)n(2n)}6+\dfrac{4(n-1)n}2+(n-1)$

$\implies a_n=n^4+1$

What is the area of the region bounded by the lines x= 1 and y= 0 and the curve y=xe^x^2?

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

A = 0.859

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the area of the region bounded by the lines x = 1 and y = 0 and the curve y = xe^(x²).

At y = 0, let's find x;

0 = xe^(x²)

Solving this leads to no solution because x is infinity. Thus we can say lower bound is x = 0.

So our upper band is x = 1

Thus,lets find the area;

A = ∫xe(x²) dx between 1 and 0

A = (e^(x²))/2 between 1 and 0

A = ((e¹)/2) - (e^(0))/2)

A = 1.359 - 0.5

A = 0.859
