y = x² has a lower bound at the vertex (0, 0); <em> y = 0</em>

y = 9 has an upper bound at y = 9

x² = 9   ⇒  x = +/- 3  the region is bounded on the left at x = -3 and on the right at x = 3

Solve the integral from -3 to 3 to find the area under the curve, then multiply by 1/3 to calculate 1/3 of the area.

\int\limits^3_3 (9 - {x^{2}}) \, dx = (9x - x³/3) | from -3 to 3

= (9(3) - 3³/3) - (9(-3) - (-3)³/3)

= (27 - 9) - (- 27 - (-9))

= 16 - (-16)

= 32

*** 32/3 is 1/3 of the area ****

Now that we know what 1/3 of the area is, we can find the height <em>at y = a</em> which will satisfy 1/3 of the area. We do this by solving the integral from "0 to a" and setting it equal to 1/3 of the area (32/3).

\int\limits^a_0 (9 - {x^{2}}) \, dx - a(9 - a²)

=  (9x - x³/3) | from 0 to a   - (9a - a³)

= (9a - a³/3) - (9(0) - (0)³/3) - 9a + a³

= 9a - a³/3 - 9a + a³

= a³ - a³/3

= 2a³/3

32/3 = 2a³/3

32 = 2a³

16 = a³

∛16 = a  

2∛2 = a  (This is the distance from the upper bound (y = 9)

Answer: y = 9 - 2∛2

Follow the same steps using 2/3 of the area (64/3) to find "b".

64 = 2b³

32 = b³

∛32 = b   3.17

2∛4 = b  (This is the distance from the upper bound (y = 9)

Answer: y = 9 - 2∛4

What number is most likely going to be a number less than 7 when rolling a dice
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

Each is equally likely . The probability of rolling less than 7 is equal to the probability of rolling 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 or 5 or 6. That is 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 6/6.

Help based offf order of operations please help
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The answer for :

h. \:  \:   \: \frac{5}{6}

i. \:  \:  \:  \frac{35}{32}

k. \:  \:  \:  \frac{-29}{20}

l. \:  \:  \:  \frac{13}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Question h:

\frac{2}{3}  + ( \frac{1}{3}  \times  \frac{1}{2} )

=  \frac{2}{3}  +  \frac{1}{6}

=  \frac{2 \times 2}{3 \times 2}  +  \frac{1}{6}

=  \frac{4}{6}  +  \frac{1}{6}

=  \frac{5}{6}

Question i:

\frac{7}{8}  +  \frac{1}{4}  \times ( \frac{3}{2}  -  \frac{5}{8} )

=  \frac{7}{8}  +  \frac{1}{4}  \times ( \frac{3 \times 4}{2 \times 4}  -  \frac{5}{8} )

= \frac{7}{8}  +  \frac{1}{4}  \times ( \frac{12}{8}  -  \frac{5}{8} )

=  \frac{7}{8}  +  (\frac{1}{4}  \times  \frac{7}{8} )

=  \frac{7}{8}  +  \frac{7}{32}

=  \frac{7  \times 4}{8 \times 4}  +  \frac{7}{32}

=  \frac{28}{32}  +  \frac{7}{32}

=  \frac{35}{32}

Question k:

\frac{3}{4}  - ( \frac{12}{7}  \div  \frac{12}{21} ) +  \frac{4}{5}

=  \frac{3}{4}  - ( \frac{12}{7}  \times  \frac{21}{12} ) +  \frac{4}{5}

=  \frac{3}{4}  -  \frac{3}{1}  +  \frac{4}{5}

= \frac{3 \times 5}{4 \times 5}  -  \frac{3 \times 20}{1 \times 20} +  \frac{4 \times 4}{5 \times 4}

=  \frac{15}{20}   -   \frac{60}{20} +  \frac{16}{20}

=  -  \frac{29}{20}

Question l:

\frac{5}{2}  \times ( \frac{2}{3}  -  \frac{1}{5} ) - ( \frac{2}{5}  \div  \frac{4}{3} )

=  \frac{5}{2}  \times ( \frac{2 \times 5}{3 \times 5}  -  \frac{1 \times 3}{5 \times 3} ) - ( \frac{2}{5}  \times  \frac{3}{4} )

=  \frac{5}{2}  \times ( \frac{10}{15}  -  \frac{3}{15} ) -  \frac{3}{10}

=  (\frac{5}{2} \times   \frac{7}{15}) -  \frac{3}{10}

=  \frac{7}{6}  -  \frac{3}{10}

=  \frac{7 \times 5}{6 \times 5}  -  \frac{3 \times 3}{10 \times 3}

=  \frac{35}{30}  -  \frac{9}{30}

=  \frac{26}{30}

=  \frac{13}{15}

So here's the question:
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The angle θ, that the device needs to scan is 16.795°

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have

Height of room = 11 ft

Width of room = 15 ft

Length of room = 18 ft

Position of camera = 6 inches below the ceiling = 11 ft - 6 in = 126 in = 10.5 ft

Distance from camera to edge of long side of the room is given by the following relation;

Long edge of angle = √((18 ft)²+(10.5 ft)²) = 20.839 ft

Shorter edge of angle = √((15 ft)²+(10.5 ft)²) = 18.31 ft

Opposite side of required angle = √((18 ft)²+(15 ft)²) = 23.431 ft

Therefore, by cosine rule, we have

a² = b² + c² - 2·b·c·cos A

We therefore put our a as the opposite side of the required angle, A so we can easily solve for it

our b and c are then the other two sides

23.431² = 20.839² + 18.31² - 2×20.839×18.31×cosA

∴ cos(A) = (23.431² - (20.839² + 18.31²))÷(2×20.839×18.31)

cos(A) = 220.5/763.12418 = 0.29

A = cos⁻¹0.29 = 16.795°

The angle θ, that the device needs to scan = 16.795°.

Add one term to the polynomial expression 14x^19 - 9x^15 + 11x^4 + 5x^2 + 3 to make it into a 22nd degree polynomial
GuDViN [60]

Given:

The polynomial is

14x^{19}-9x^{15}+11x^4+5x^2+3

To find:

One term which is used to add in given polynomial to make it into a 22nd degree polynomial.

Solution:

Degree of a polynomial is the highest power of the variable.

Let,

P(x)=14x^{19}-9x^{15}+11x^4+5x^2+3

Here, the highest power of x is 19, so degree of polynomial is 19.

To make it into a 22nd degree polynomial, we need to need a term having 22 as power of x.

We can add kx^{22}, where k is constant.

So add x^{22} in the given polynomial.

P(x)=x^22+14x^{19}-9x^{15}+11x^4+5x^2+3

Now, the degree of polynomial is 22.

Therefore, the required term is x^{22}.
