Because of the symmetry, we can just go from x=0 to x=2 to find the area between 
<span>y = x^2 and y = 4 </span>

<span>that area = ∫4-x^2 dx from 0 to 2 </span>
<span>= [4x - (1/3)x^3] from 0 to 2 </span>
<span>= 8 - 8/3 - 0 </span>
<span>= 16/3 </span>

<span>so when y = b </span>
<span>x= √b </span>
<span>and we have the area as </span>
<span>∫(b - x^2) dx from 0 to √b </span>
<span>= [b x - (1/3)x^3] from 0 to √b </span>
<span>= b√b - (1/3)b√b - 0 </span>

<span>(2/3)b√b = 8/3 </span>
<span>b√b =4 </span>
<span>square both sides </span>
<span>b^3 = 16 </span>
<span>b = 16^(1/3) = 2 cuberoot(2) </span>
<span>or appr 2.52</span>

Find the mean of following data: <br>i)70,30,45,90,45​
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is the average number of a data set.

To find the mean:

First, add all the numbers in the data set:

30 + 45 + 45 + 70 + 90 = 280

Next, divide the sum (280) by 5 (amount of values):

280 / 5 = 56

56 represents the mean of your data set.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

<h2><em><u>x = 5</u></em></h2>

Explanation:

11 - x < 7

  • 11 minus a number is less than 7

<em>Insert 5 into the equation</em>

11 - 5 < 7

<em>Simplify</em>

6 < 7

  • This is true

<em>Insert 3 into the equation</em>

11 - 3 < 7

<em>Simplify</em>

8 < 7

  • This is false
<h3><u><em>x = 5 is a solution to the equation 11 - x </em></u><u>< 7</u></h3><h3><u /></h3>
