<span>This is a right triangle problem. c^2 = a^2 + b^2
Let b = 7 mi (Rosa's distance from home)
Let a = the east leg (Juan's distance from home
(a+1) = c (hypotenuse, distance between them)

(a+1)^2 = a^2 + 7^2

FOIL (a+1)(a+1)
a^2 + 2a + 1 = a^2 + 49

Combine like terms
a^2 - a^2 + 2a = 49 - 1
2a = 48
a = 

<span>a = 24 mi, Juan's distance from home

Apply Gaussian quadrature with n = 4 to approximate integrate sin x^2dx from 1 to 5
maks197457 [2]
First, recall that Gaussian quadrature is based around integrating a function over the interval [-1,1], so transform the function argument accordingly to change the integral over [1,5] to an equivalent one over [-1,1].

x=2t+3\iff t=\dfrac x2-\dfrac32\implies2\mathrm dt=\mathrm dx
x=1\implies t=\dfrac{2-6}4=-1
x=5\implies t=\dfrac{10-6}4=1

So,

\displaystyle\int_{x=1}^{x=5}\sin x^2\,\mathrm dx=\displaystyle2\int_{t=-1}^{t=1}\sin(2t+3)^2\,\mathrm dt

Let f(t)=2\sin(2t+3)^2. With n=4, we're looking for coefficients c_i and nodes x_i, with 1\le i\le4, such that

\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1f(t)\,\mathrm dt\approx c_1f(x_1)+\cdots+c_4f(x_4)

You can either try solving for each with the help of a calculator, or look up the values of the weights and nodes (they're extensively tabulated, and I'll include a link to one such reference).

Using the quadrature, we then have

\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1f(t)\,\mathrm dt\approx0.3749f(-0.8611)+0.6521f(-0.3400)+0.6521f(0.3400)+0.3749f-0.8611)
\displaystyle\int_{-1}^1f(t)\,\mathrm dt\approx0.5790

You take a three-question true or false quiz. You guess on all the questions. What is the probability that you will get a perfec
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
The probability that you will guess the first answer correctly  =  1/2  =  0.5
The probability that you will guess the second answer correctly  =  1/2  =  0.5
The probability that you will guess the third answer correctly  =  1/2  =  0.5

The probability that you will guess all three answers correctly is

                (0.5) x (0.5) x (0.5)  =  0.125  =  12.5% .

============================

Here are all the ways your answer sheet could wind up:
(R = a right answer.  W = a wrong answer.)

W W W 
W W R
W R W
W R R
R W W
R W R
R R W
R R R

Number of possible ways to score 0 right out of 3 questions:  1 way
Number of possible ways to score 1 right out of 3 questions:  3 ways
Number of possible ways to score 2 right out of 3 questions:  3 ways
Number of possible ways to score 3 right out of 3 questions:  1 way

Statistically, if your answers are all pure guesses, 
then on the average, the score you expect is

      (0 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 100) / 8

   =                  400 / 8

   =                      50%  .  

If you're happy with that score, great !  
Go to the movies the night before the test,
and start guessing.
