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

PLZ HELPPP MEEEE What is the difference between a rate and a unit rate
slega [8]

A rate is a special ratio in which the two terms are in different units. For example, if a 12-ounce can of corn costs 69¢, the rate is 69¢ for 12 ounces. ... When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.

hope this helps!

Zack wants a new skateboard that costs $98. He has a coupon for 20% off the original price. The sales tax is 6%, what is the fin
svet-max [94.6K]

The final cost of skateboard will be $83.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of skateboard = $98

Coupon = 20% off

Amount of discount = 20% of cost of skateboard

Amount\ of\ discount=\frac{20}{100}*98\\\\Amount\ of\ discount=\frac{1960}{100}\\\\Amount\ of\ discount=\$19.6

Cost of skateboard after discount = Cost of skateboard - Amount of discount

Cost of skateboard after discount = 98 - 19.6 = $78.4

Sales tax = 6%

Sales tax amount = 6% of discounted price

Sales\ tax\ amount=\frac{6}{100}*78.4\\\\Sales\ tax\ amount=\frac{470.4}{100}\\\\Sales\ tax\ amount=\$4.70

Final cost of skateboard = Discounted price + Sales tax

Final cost of skateboard = 78.40+4.70 = $83.10

The final cost of skateboard will be $83.10
