Without critical thinking and skepticism, it is far too easy to jump to conclusions and not analyze data properly.

Critical thinking demands one to continue to ask, "Why? Or a What if...?"

Skeptics are not sure what has been proven true, to be true. They seek more proof possibly.

These keep S.I. In a sort of checks & balances so the response or end goal stays true to science itself.

Group-think, when everyone agrees on the solution without further inquiry, is very dangerous. It takes the solution down one path without ever considering any other path or outcome.

Hope this helps you to critically think about this question.

Slope integrals for calculus, having trouble need all the help I can get

Harlamova29_29 [7]

(1) The integral is straightforward; x ranges between two constants, and y ranges between two functions of x that don't intersect.

$\displaystyle\int_{-2}^1\int_{-x}^{x^2+2}\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx$

(2) First find where the two curves intersect:

y ² - 4 = -3y

y ² + 3y - 4 = 0

(y + 4) (y - 1) = 0

y = -4, y = 1 → x = 12, x = -3

That is, they intersect at the points (-3, 1) and (12, -4). Since x ranges between two explicit functions of y, you can capture the area with one integral if you integrate with respect to x first:

$\displaystyle\int_{-4}^1\int_{y^2-4}^{-3y}\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy$

(3) No special tricks here, x is again bounded between two constants and y between two explicit functions of x.

$\displaystyle\int_1^5\int_0^{\frac1{x^2}}\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx$
