Answer:

21/64

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to note that the function f(x) = x² is increasing on (0, +∞), and it is decreasing on (-∞,0)

The first interval generated by the partition is [-1, -1/2], since f is decreasing for negative values, we have that f takes its minimum values at the right extreme of the interval, hence -1/2.

The second interval is [-1/2, 1/2]. Here f takes its minimum value at 0, because f(0) = 0, and f is positive otherwise.

Since f is increasing for positive values of x, then, on the remaining 2 intervals, f takes its minimum value at their respective left extremes, in other words, 1/2 and 3/4 respectively.

We obtain the lower Riemman sum by multiplying this values evaluated in f by the lenght of their respective intervals and summing the results, thus

LP(f) = f(-1/2) * ((-1/2) - (-1)) + f(0) * (1/2 - (-1/2)) + f(1/2)* (3/4 - 1/2) + f(3/4) * (1- 3/4)

= 1/4 * 1/2 + 0 * 1 + 1/4 * 1/4 + 9/16 * 1/4 = 1/8 + 0 + 1/16 + 9/64 = 21/64

As a result, the lower Riemann sum on the partition P is 21/64

last year a large trucking company delivered 9.0x10^5 tons of goods with an average value of $17,000 per ton. what was the total
lana66690 [7]
The answer is 1.53x10^10 dollars.

You get this answer by multiplying the total amount of goods in tons (900,000) by the average value of the goods ($17,000 per ton) to get your answer of 1.53x10^10 dollars.

A pan of lasagna cut into 100 servings is equally shared among a group of people. For Exercises
Volgvan

53).  100 servings / 20 people  =  (100/20) (svngs/ppl)

                                                 = 5 servings per person.

         Each person gets 1/20 = 5% = 0.05 of the pan.


54).  100 servings / 40 people  =  (100/40) (svngs/ppl)

                                                 = 2.5 servings per person.

         Each person gets  1/40 = 2.5% = 0.025 of the pan.


55).  100 servings / 30 people  =  (100/30) (svngs/ppl) 

                                                  = (3 and 1/3) servings per person.

         Each person gets  1/30 = (3 and 1/3) % = 0.0333... of the pan.

Jen ran 3/4 mile in 18 minutes at 9 am and 2 1/4 miles in 27 minutes at 6 pm. Is this proportional or non proportional?
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

It's non-proportional

Step-by-step explanation:

You could tell every 1/4 mile is 6 minutes, so every other number should be a multiple of 6 if it is a multiple of 1/4. 27 is not a multiple of 6.
