What is the answer to K/2+1-1k=-2k

1 answer:

4 0

$\dfrac{k}{2}+1-1k=-2k\\\\\dfrac{1}{2}k+1-k=-2k\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{2}k-k\right)+1=-2k\\\\-\dfrac{1}{2}k+1=-2k\qquad\text{subtract 1 from both sides}\\\\-\dfrac{1}{2}k=-2k-1\qquad\text{add 2k to both sides}\\\\1\dfrac{1}{2}k=-1\qquad\text{convert the mixed number to improper fraction}\\\\\dfrac{1\cdot2+1}{2}k=-1\\\\\dfrac{3}{2}k=-1\qqua\text{multiply both sides by}\ \dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\boxed{k=-\dfrac{2}{3}}$

the area of the first quadrant bounded by the y-axis, the line y=4-x, and the graph of y=x-cosx is approximately

zzz [600]

The curves $y=4-x$ and $y=x-\cos x$ intersect at approximately $x\approx1.8582$ . The area is then

$A\approx\displaystyle\int_0^{1.8582}((4-x)-(x-\cos x))\,\mathrm dx=\int_0^{1.8582}(4-2x+\cos x)\,\mathrm dx\approx4.9389$
