The area of square flake of gold is $53.29 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{mm}$

<h3>Solution:</h3>

Given that width of square flake of gold is $7.3 \times 10^{-4}$ millimeter

To find : Area of square flake

Since gold flake is in shape of square, we can use area of square formula

The formula for area of square is given as:

$area = s^2$

where "s" is the length of one side

$\begin{array}{l}{\text { Area of a square flake }=\left(7.3 \times 10^{-4}\right) \times\left(7.3 \times 10^{-4}\right)} \\\\ {\text { Area of a square flake }=53.29 \times 10^{8}}\end{array}$

Hence , the calculated area of flake is $53.29 \times 10^{-8} \mathrm{mm}$

What is the probability that a leap year selected at random will contain either 53 thursdays or 53 fridays?

sergij07 [2.7K]

There are 366 days in a leap year
In a week there are 7 days, so total no of days= 7*52=364 days.
Here 52 represents number of weeks.
Now last two days can be combination of two days say like Monday and Tuesday or Tuesday and Wednesday and so on.
So in total 7 combinations are possible.
Out of there can be 3 combinations containing Thursday or Friday.
Hence, the probability is 3/7.
Hence the answer is 3/7

AP Calculus redo! I know the answer but can't figure out exactly how to get there. Thank you! I want to work through the steps.

You're approximating

$\displaystyle\int_1^5 x^2\,\mathrm dx$

with a Riemann sum, which comes in the form

$\displaystyle\int_a^b f(x)\,\mathrm dx=\lim_{n\to\infty}\sum_{i=1}^nf(x_i)\Delta x_i$

where $x_i$ are sample points chosen according to some decided-upon rule, and $\Delta x_i$ is the distance between adjacent sample points in the interval.

The simplest way of approximating the definite integral is by partitioning the interval into equally-spaced subintervals, in which case $\Delta x=\dfrac{b-a}n$ , and since $[a,b]=[1,5]$ , we have

$\Delta x=\dfrac{5-1}n=\dfrac4n$

Using the right-endpoint method, we approximate the area under $f(x)$ with rectangles whose heights are determined by their right endpoints. These endpoints are chosen by successively adding the subinterval length to the starting point of the interval of integration.

So if we had $n=4$ subintervals, we'd split up the interval of integration as

$[1,5]=[1,2]\cup[2,3]\cup[3,4]\cup[4,5]$

Note that the right endpoints follow a precise pattern of

$2=1+\dfrac44$
$3=1+\dfrac84$
$4=1+\dfrac{12}4$
$5=1+\dfrac{16}4$

The height of each rectangle is then given by the values above getting squared (since $f(x)=x^2$ ). So continuing with the example of $n=4$ , the Riemann sum would be

$\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^4\left(1+\dfrac{4i}4\right)^2\dfrac44$

For $n=5$ ,

$\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^5\left(1+\dfrac{4i}5\right)^2\dfrac45$

and so on, so that the definite integral is given exactly by the infinite sum

$\displaystyle\lim_{n\to\infty}\sum_{i=1}^n\left(1+\dfrac{4i}n\right)^2\dfrac4n$
