y=\ln(6+x^3)\implies y'=\dfrac{3x^2}{6+x^3}

The arc length of the curve is

\displaystyle\int_0^5\sqrt{1+\frac{9x^4}{(6+x^3)^2}}\,\mathrm dx

which has a value of about 5.99086.

Let f(x)=\sqrt{1+\frac{9x^4}{(6+x^3)^2}}. Split up the interval of integration into 10 subintervals,

[0, 1/2], [1/2, 1], [1, 3/2], ..., [9/2, 5]

The left and right endpoints are given respectively by the sequences,

\ell_i=\dfrac{i-1}2

r_i=\dfrac i2

with 1\le i\le10.

These subintervals have midpoints given by

m_i=\dfrac{\ell_i+r_i}2=\dfrac{2i-1}4

Over each subinterval, we approximate f(x) with the quadratic polynomial

p_i(x)=f(\ell_i)\dfrac{(x-m_i)(x-r_i)}{(\ell_i-m_i)(\ell_i-r_i)}+f(m_i)\dfrac{(x-\ell_i)(x-r_i)}{(m_i-\ell_i)(m_i-r_i)}+f(r_i)\dfrac{(x-\ell_i)(x-m_i)}{(r_i-\ell_i)(r_i-m_i)}

so that the integral we want to find can be estimated as

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{10}\int_{\ell_i}^{r_i}p_i(x)\,\mathrm dx

It turns out that

\displaystyle\int_{\ell_i}^{r_i}p_i(x)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{f(\ell_i)+4f(m_i)+f(r_i)}6

so that the arc length is approximately

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^{10}\frac{f(\ell_i)+4f(m_i)+f(r_i)}6\approx5.99086

Which of the following is equivalent to (Cd) to the fifth power
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The 3rd option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because of an exponent rule that goes:

(xy)^z = x^z(y^z)

The whole thing gets raised to the power. Therefore only the 3rd one works (ps. if you can mark as brainliest that would be amazing, but if not that's fine)
