What is the whole process of turning the limit into a definite integral? An example would be great!

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the (b − a) / n factor in the limit of the Riemann sum.  This is the Δx.

The next step is to identify the function and the argument, f(xᵢ).  The argument xᵢ looks like a + i (b − a) / n.

From there, you can write two equations:

Δx = (b − a) / n

xᵢ = a + i (b − a) / n = a + i Δx

Since you know xᵢ and Δx, you can identify a.  And when you know a, you can plug that into Δx to find b.  So now you have the limits of the definite integral.

Finally, write the integral using the limits and the function.

Here's an example.  Suppose you have the limit:

lim(n→∞) ∑ᵢ₌₁ⁿ √(1 + 3i/n) (3/n)

First, we notice that Δx = (b − a)/n = 3/n.  So b − a = 3.

Next, we identify that xᵢ = 1 + 3i/n = a + i (3/n), so a = 1.  Therefore, b = 4.

Now, we identify the function, f(xᵢ) = √xᵢ.

Finally, we plug it all into a definite integral:

∫₁⁴ √x dx

Answer:

Option B y=3x -2 is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to quickly figure it out is to find the y-intercept of the graph. So, from the graph you can see that the line cuts the y axis at -2. Therefore, as per the equation of a straight line, y=mx+c

option B shows that the y intercept is -2. Thus option B is the answer to this question.

A regular pentagon has an apothem of 7.3 inches and a perimeter of 53 inches. What is the area of the pentagon? Round your answe
zvonat [6]

Answer:

Area pf the regular pentagon is 193inch^{2} to the nearest whole number

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating the area of a regular pentagon, given the apothem and the perimeter

Mathematically, the area of a regular pentagon given the apothem and the perimeter can be calculated using the formula below;

Area of regular pentagon = 1/2 × apothem × perimeter

From the question, we can identify that the value of the apothem is 7.3 inches, while the value of the perimeter is 53 inches

We plug these values into the equation above to get;

Area = 1/2 × 7.3× 53 = 386.9/2 = 193.45 which is 193inch^{2} to the nearest whole number

The sides of a rectangle are in the ratio of 4:5. If the width is 28 in., find the length, the perimeter, and the area of this r
nadezda [96]
If the width is 28 inches, then divide that by 4 and you get 7. You multiply that by 5 to get the length. That would be 35. Just to check, you know that the width 28 and length 35 are in ratio 4:5 if you divide by 7. The perimeter would be 2(35+28)=63*2=126. So the perimeter is 126. The area would be 35*28 which is 980. To sum up, the answers are as follows.

Length: 35 in
Perimeter: 126 in
Area: 980 inches squared.
