Answer:

3) (98.08, 124.16)

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.

99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean = 111.12

Standard deviation = 13.04

Calculate an interval that is symmetric around the mean such that it contains approximately 68% of fines.

68% of the fines are within 1 standard deviation of the mean speed. So

From 111.12 - 13.04 = 98.08 to 111.12 + 13.04 = 124.16

The interval notation in the smallest value before the highest value.

So the correct answer is:

3) (98.08, 124.16)

Integral of 17/(x^3-125)
daser333 [38]

Answer:

17/75 ln│x − 5│− 17/150 ln(x² + 5x + 25) − 17/(5√75) tan⁻¹((2x + 5) / √75) + C

Step-by-step explanation:

∫ 17 / (x³ − 125) dx

= 17 ∫ 1 / (x³ − 125) dx

= 17 ∫ 1 / ((x − 5) (x² + 5x + 25)) dx

Use partial fraction decomposition:

= 17 ∫ [ A / (x − 5) + (Bx + C) / (x² + 5x + 25) ] dx

Use common denominator to find the missing coefficients.

A (x² + 5x + 25) + (Bx + C) (x − 5) = 1

Ax² + 5Ax + 25A + Bx² − 5Bx + Cx − 5C = 1

(A + B) x² + (5A − 5B + C) x + 25A − 5C = 1

Match the coefficients and solve the system of equations.

A + B = 0

5A − 5B + C = 0

25A − 5C = 1

A = 1/75

B = -1/75

C = -2/15

So the integral is:

= 17 ∫ [ 1/75 / (x − 5) + (-1/75 x − 2/15) / (x² + 5x + 25) ] dx

Simplify:

= 17/75 ∫ [ 1 / (x − 5) − (x + 10) / (x² + 5x + 25) ] dx

Factor ½ from the numerator of the second fraction:

= 17/75 ∫ [ 1 / (x − 5) − ½ (2x + 20) / (x² + 5x + 25) ] dx

Split the fraction:

= 17/75 ∫ [ 1 / (x − 5) − ½ (2x + 5) / (x² + 5x + 25) − ½ (15) / (x² + 5x + 25) ] dx

Multiply the last fraction by 4/4:

= 17/75 ∫ [ 1 / (x − 5) − ½ (2x + 5) / (x² + 5x + 25) − 30 / (4x² + 20x + 100) ] dx

Complete the square:

= 17/75 ∫ [ 1 / (x − 5) − ½ (2x + 5) / (x² + 5x + 25) − 15 / ((2x + 5)² + 75) ] dx

Split the integral:

= 17/75 ∫ 1 / (x − 5) dx − 17/150 ∫ (2x + 5) / (x² + 5x + 25) dx − 17/5 ∫ 1 / ((2x + 5)² + 75) dx

The first integral is:

∫ 1 / (x − 5) dx = ln│x − 5│

The second integral is:

∫ (2x + 5) / (x² + 5x + 25) dx = ln(x² + 5x + 25)

The third integral is:

∫ 1 / ((2x + 5)² + 75) dx = 1/√75 tan⁻¹((2x + 5) / √75)

Plug in:

= 17/75 ln│x − 5│− 17/150 ln(x² + 5x + 25) − 17/(5√75) tan⁻¹((2x + 5) / √75) + C

A school goes through 10 gallons of milk in 3 days.
Akimi4 [234]
G = gallons     d = days
10g = 3d
?g = 1d
1g = ?d
-------------
for gallons in a day, divide 10g = 3d by 3
d = 10/3 gallons
3 and 1/3 gallons in a day
---------------
for days per gallon, divide 10g = 3d by 10
g = 3/10 days
1 gallon lasts 3/10 of a day
