Answer:

<h3>C. Scientific Notation</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number in question is greater than or equal to 1 but less than

10, we can choose any number between 1 and 10, lets take 3 for example.

If we take the product of 3 and an integer power of 10 number without regard to its sign, this can be expressed mathematically as shown;

$3 * 10^{-5}$ where the power of 10 is -5. Note that any real number can be used as the power since we are not regarding the sign (Here we used -5). The expression formed according to the expression in question is a SCIENTIFIC NOTATION i.e $3 * 10^{-5}$ gives us a scientific notation.

Scientific notation is a means by which we represent very large or small numbers that are difficult to represent using a decimal notation

13x−2= − 10 x − 2 −10x−2

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

x=0

Step-by-step explanation:

13x-2 = 10x-2

Subtract 10x from each side

13x-10x-2 = 10x-2 -10x

3x-2 = -2

Add 2 for each side

3x-2+2 = -2+2

3x= 0

divide by 3

3x/3 = 0/3

x =0

use the general slicing method to find the volume of The solid whose base is the triangle with vertices (0 comma 0 ), (15 comma

lyudmila [28]

Answer:

volume V of the solid

$\boxed{V=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation is depicted in the picture attached

(see picture)

First, we divide the segment [0, 5] on the X-axis into n equal parts of length 5/n each

[0, 5/n], [5/n, 2(5/n)], [2(5/n), 3(5/n)],..., [(n-1)(5/n), 5]

Now, we slice our solid into n slices.

Each slice is a quarter of cylinder 5/n thick and has a radius of

-k(5/n) + 5 for each k = 1,2,..., n (see picture)

So the volume of each slice is

$\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-k(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}$

for k=1,2,..., n

We then add up the volumes of all these slices

$\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-2(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}+...+\displaystyle\frac{\pi(-n(5/n) + 5 )^2*(5/n)}{4}$

Notice that the last term of the sum vanishes. After making up the expression a little, we get

$\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left[(-(5/n)+5)^2+(-2(5/n)+5)^2+...+(-(n-1)(5/n)+5)^2\right]=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2$

But

$\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}(-k(5/n)+5)^2=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}((5/n)^2k^2-(50/n)k+25)=\\\\\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)$

we also know that

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}$

and

$\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k=\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}$

so we have, after replacing and simplifying, the sum of the slices equals

$\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left((5/n)^2\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k^2-(50/n)\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^{n-1}k+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{5\pi}{4n}\left(\displaystyle\frac{25}{n^2}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{6}-\displaystyle\frac{50}{n}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)}{2}+25(n-1)\right)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}$

Now we take the limit when n tends to infinite (the slices get thinner and thinner)

$\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}\displaystyle\frac{n(n-1)(2n-1)}{n^3}=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}\displaystyle\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty}(2-3/n+1/n^2)=\\\\=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{24}.2=\displaystyle\frac{125\pi}{12}$
