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>

A bicycle has tires with a diameter of 21 inches. How many inches will
Finger [1]

Answer:

175 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1 full revolution, the bike will travel 42 inches because the diameter of the tire is 21 inches. Any point on the tire will have to go through a whole revolution to be back at the original point which means 21 inches times 2.

So the bike travels 42 inches in 1 revolution then in 50 revolutions it will travel 2100 inches (42 times 50). Now if your convert 2100 inches to feet, you get 175 feet.
