Answer:
The length of the slide is 10 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the length of the slide you have to use the formula:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2 (^2 means squared)
In this case:
a= 6 and b=8 c= unknown
6 squared (6 times 6) is 36
8 squared (8 times 8) is 64
Add these two numbers to get:
36+64=100
6^2+8^2=100
However, the length of the slide in not 100 feet. In order to find the correct length you must find the square root of 100. Which is 10.
What number times itself equals 100? 10.
The length of the slide in 10 feet.
The answer is D

Answer:
1/n^2 is the answer......
First, recall that Gaussian quadrature is based around integrating a function over the interval [-1,1], so transform the function argument accordingly to change the integral over [1,5] to an equivalent one over [-1,1].



So,

Let

. With

, we're looking for coefficients

and nodes

, with

, such that

You can either try solving for each with the help of a calculator, or look up the values of the weights and nodes (they're extensively tabulated, and I'll include a link to one such reference).
Using the quadrature, we then have
