Split up the interval [0, 2] into 4 subintervals, so that

[0,2]=\left[0,\dfrac12\right]\cup\left[\dfrac12,1\right]\cup\left[1,\dfrac32\right]\cup\left[\dfrac32,2\right]

Each subinterval has width \dfrac{2-0}4=\dfrac12. The area of the trapezoid constructed on each subinterval is \dfrac{f(x_i)+f(x_{i+1})}4, i.e. the average of the values of x^2 at both endpoints of the subinterval times 1/2 over each subinterval [x_i,x_{i+1}].

So,

\displaystyle\int_0^2x^2\,\mathrm dx\approx\dfrac{0^2+\left(\frac12\right)^2}4+\dfrac{\left(\frac12\right)^2+1^2}4+\dfrac{1^2+\left(\frac32\right)^2}4+\dfrac{\left(\frac32\right)^2+2^2}4

=\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^4\frac{\left(\frac{i-1}2\right)^2+\left(\frac i2\right)^2}4=\frac{11}4

Which of these examples is an error of addition by one?
N76 [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

A. 27,465 +52,534 = 79,899

Step-by-step explanation:

Given are the options for addition

We have to check each addition one by one

So,

A. 27,465 +52,534 = 79,899

This option is the example of error of addition by one. The answer should have been 79,999. Hence there is an error in addition ..

Hence, option a: 27,465 +52,534 = 79,899  is the correct answer ..

Prove A-(BnC) = (A-B)U(A-C), explain with an example​
NikAS [45]

Answer:

Prove set equality by showing that for any element x, x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C)) if and only if x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C)).

Example:

A = \lbrace 0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace.

B = \lbrace0,\, 1 \rbrace.

C = \lbrace0,\, 2 \rbrace.

\begin{aligned} & A \backslash (B \cap C) \\ =\; & \lbrace 0,\, 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace \backslash \lbrace 0 \rbrace \\ =\; & \lbrace 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace \end{aligned}.

\begin{aligned}& (A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C) \\ =\; & \lbrace 2,\, 3\rbrace \cup \lbrace 1,\, 3 \rbrace \\ =\; & \lbrace 1,\, 2,\, 3 \rbrace\end{aligned}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Proof for [x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C))] \implies [x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))] for any element x:

Assume that x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C)). Thus, x \in A and x \not \in (B \cap C).

Since x \not \in (B \cap C), either x \not \in B or x \not \in C (or both.)

  • If x \not \in B, then combined with x \in A, x \in (A \backslash B).
  • Similarly, if x \not \in C, then combined with x \in A, x \in (A \backslash C).

Thus, either x \in (A \backslash B) or x \in (A \backslash C) (or both.)

Therefore, x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C)) as required.

Proof for [x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C))] \implies [x \in (A \backslash (B \cap C))]:

Assume that x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C)). Thus, either x \in (A \backslash B) or x \in (A \backslash C) (or both.)

  • If x \in (A \backslash B), then x \in A and x \not \in B. Notice that (x \not \in B) \implies (x \not \in (B \cap C)) since the contrapositive of that statement, (x \in (B \cap C)) \implies (x \in B), is true. Therefore, x \not \in (B \cap C) and thus x \in A \backslash (B \cap C).
  • Otherwise, if x \in A \backslash C, then x \in A and x \not \in C. Similarly, x \not \in C \! implies x \not \in (B \cap C). Therefore, x \in A \backslash (B \cap C).

Either way, x \in A \backslash (B \cap C).

Therefore, x \in ((A \backslash B) \cup (A \backslash C)) implies x \in A \backslash (B \cap C), as required.

if the angles of triangle RST and measure of angle R= (9x-2)degrees, and the measure of angle S=(4x+36) degrees, and measure of
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

R, T, S

Step-by-step explanation:

R+S+T=180 degrees

9x-2+4x+36+5x+20=180

18+54x=180

54x=162

x=3

R=9*3-2 (substitute x with 3)

R=25

S=4*3+36

S=48

T=5*3+20

T=35

Shortest to longest: R, T, S
