Area of the parabolic region = Integral of [a^2 - x^2 ]dx | from - a to a =

(a^2)x - (x^3)/3 | from - a to a = (a^2)(a) - (a^3)/3 - (a^2)(-a) + (-a^3)/3 =

= 2a^3 - 2(a^3)/3 = [4/3](a^3)

Area of the triangle = [1/2]base*height = [1/2](2a)(a)^2 = <span>a^3

ratio area of the triangle / area of the parabolic region = a^3 / {[4/3](a^3)} =

Limit of </span><span><span>a^3 / {[4/3](a^3)} </span>as a -> 0 = 1 /(4/3) = 4/3

Nesterboy [21]
Total area of the rectangular land = 2^15 sq. miles
                                                     = 32768 sq. miles

total area of the pieces being sold = 8^3 sq. miles
                                                       = 512 sq. miles

now total no. of pieces = total area of the land / the area of samaller land that's                                                                                     being sold
                                     = 32768 / 512
                                     = 64

so the actual number of pieces is 64

Solve the right triangle. Round decimal answers to the nearest tenth. find the sides and angles
babymother [125]

Answer:

b = 12.6

Step-by-step explanation:

a*2 + b*2 = c*2

6*2 + b*2 = 14*2

36 + b*2 = 196

Subtract 36 from both sides

36 + b*2 = 196

-36             -36

b*2 = 160

Find the square root of both

b = 12.64911064  or 12.6

The sum of three consecutive integers is 168. What are the integers
Tema [17]

Answer:

3X + 3 = 168

3X + 3 - 3 = 168 - 3

3X = 165

3X/3 = 165/3

X = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 168. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows: (X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 168
