Answer:

68,3 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Empirical rule establishes:

In a normal distribution with mean μ and standard deviation σ we have a relation between values of the distribution and intervals describes as follows:

( μ ± σ ) contains 68.3 % of all values of the distribution

( μ ± 2σ ) contains 95,4 % and

( μ ± 3σ ) contains 99.7 %

In our particular case we have that

( μ ± σ ) ⇒ ( 70 ± 5 ) ⇒ ( 65 , 75 )

( μ ± 2σ ) ⇒ ( 70 ± 10 ) ⇒ ( 60 , 80 ) and

( μ ± 3σ ) ⇒ ( 70 ± 15 ) ⇒ ( 55 , 85

As we can clearly see 68,3 % of values fall between values going from 65 up to 75 inches

Answer:

<h2><em><u>18</u></em></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u>Given</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>

Radius of the cylinder = 3cm

Height of the cylinder = 3cm

<em><u>Therefore</u></em><em><u>, </u></em>

Lateral surface area of the cylinder

$= 2\pi rh$

$= 2\pi \times 3 \times 3 {cm}^{2}$

$= 2\pi \times 9 {cm}^{2}$

$= 18\pi {cm}^{2}$

Evaluate the interval (Calculus 2)

Darya [45]

Answer:

$2 \tan (6x)+2 \sec (6x)+\text{C}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Fundamental Theorem of Calculus</u>

$\displaystyle \int \text{f}(x)\:\text{d}x=\text{F}(x)+\text{C} \iff \text{f}(x)=\dfrac{\text{d}}{\text{d}x}(\text{F}(x))$

If differentiating takes you from one function to another, then integrating the second function will take you back to the first with a constant of integration.

Given indefinite integral:

$\displaystyle \int \dfrac{12}{1-\sin (6x)}\:\:\text{d}x$

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5 cm}\underline{Terms multiplied by constants}\\\\$\displaystyle \int a\:\text{f}(x)\:\text{d}x=a \int \text{f}(x) \:\text{d}x$\end{minipage}}$

If the terms are multiplied by constants, take them outside the integral:

$\implies 12\displaystyle \int \dfrac{1}{1-\sin (6x)}\:\:\text{d}x$

Multiply by the conjugate of 1 - sin(6x) :

$\implies 12\displaystyle \int \dfrac{1}{1-\sin (6x)} \cdot \dfrac{1+\sin(6x)}{1+\sin(6x)}\:\:\text{d}x$

$\implies 12\displaystyle \int \dfrac{1+\sin(6x)}{1-\sin^2(6x)} \:\:\text{d}x$

$\textsf{Use the identity} \quad \sin^2 x+ \cos^2 x=1:$

$\implies \sin^2 (6x) + \cos^2 (6x)=1$

$\implies \cos^2 (6x)=1- \sin^2 (6x)$

$\implies 12\displaystyle \int \dfrac{1+\sin(6x)}{\cos^2(6x)} \:\:\text{d}x$

Expand:

$\implies 12\displaystyle \int \dfrac{1}{\cos^2(6x)}+\dfrac{\sin(6x)}{\cos^2(6x)} \:\:\text{d}x$

$\textsf{Use the identities }\:\: \sec \theta=\dfrac{1}{\cos \theta} \textsf{ and } \tan\theta=\dfrac{\sin \theta}{\cos \theta}:$

$\implies 12\displaystyle \int \sec^2(6x)+\dfrac{\tan(6x)}{\cos(6x)} \:\:\text{d}x$

$\implies 12\displaystyle \int \sec^2(6x)+\tan(6x)\sec(6x) \:\:\text{d}x$

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{5 cm}\underline{Integrating $\sec^2 kx$}\\\\$\displaystyle \int \sec^2 kx\:\text{d}x=\dfrac{1}{k} \tan kx\:\:(+\text{C})$\end{minipage}}$

$\boxed{\begin{minipage}{6 cm}\underline{Integrating $ \sec kx \tan kx$}\\\\$\displaystyle \int \sec kx \tan kx\:\text{d}x= \dfrac{1}{k}\sec kx\:\:(+\text{C})$\end{minipage}}$

$\implies 12 \left[\dfrac{1}{6} \tan (6x)+\dfrac{1}{6} \sec (6x) \right]+\text{C}$

Simplify:

$\implies \dfrac{12}{6} \tan (6x)+\dfrac{12}{6} \sec (6x)+\text{C}$

$\implies 2 \tan (6x)+2 \sec (6x)+\text{C}$
