We can find this using the formula: L= ∫√1+ (y')² dx
First we want to solve for y by taking the 1/2 power of both sides:
y=(4(x+1)³)^1/2
y=2(x+1)^3/2
Now, we can take the derivative using the chain rule:
y'=3(x+1)^1/2
We can then square this, so it can be plugged directly into the formula:
(y')²=(3√x+1)²
<span>(y')²=9(x+1)
</span>(y')²=9x+9
We can then plug this into the formula:
L= ∫√1+9x+9 dx *I can't type in the bounds directly on the integral, but the upper bound is 1 and the lower bound is 0
L= ∫(9x+10)^1/2 dx *use u-substitution to solve
L= ∫u^1/2 (du/9)
L= 1/9 ∫u^1/2 du
L= 1/9[(2/3)u^3/2]
L= 2/27 [(9x+10)^3/2] *upper bound is 1 and lower bound is 0
L= 2/27 [19^3/2-10^3/2]
L= 2/27 [√6859 - √1000]
L=3.792318765
The length of the curve is 2/27 [√6859 - √1000] or <span>3.792318765 </span>units.
The equation -21t - 4 = 10 - 2t has only one solution
<u>Solution:</u>
Given, equation is – 21t – 4 = 10 – 2t
We have to find how many solutions does the above given equation have
Now, let us solve the given equation to find the number of solutions it has.
Then, - 21t – 4 = 10 – 2t
Taking like terms to one side of the equation we get,
- 21t + 2t = 10 + 4
here we can see only one value of t.
Hence, the given equation has only one solution.
I’m assuming this is -x^2 = 15
standard form: -x^2 - 15 = 0
THE CORRECT ANSWER IS 3 FEET
