Answer:

About 95 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using the following set up:

miles / gallons = miles / gallons

We know the car can travel 38 miles on 2.4 gallons of gas.

38 miles / 2.4 gallons = miles/ gallons

We don't know how far the car can travel on 6 gallons. Therefore, we can say the car travels x miles on 6 gallons of gas.

38 miles / 2.4 gallons = x miles /6 gallons

38/2.4=x/6

We want to find x (miles for 6 gallons). Therefore, we must isolate x.

x is being divided by 6. The inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides by 6.

6*(38/2.4)=(x/6)*6

6*(38/2.4)=x

6*15.8333333=x

94.9999998=x

Let's round to the nearest whole number. The 9 in the tenth place tells us to round up.

95 ≈x

x ≈95 miles

The car can travel about 95 miles on 6 gallons of gas.

What kind of problem do we need to use “indefinite integral” to solve? Use a real life example to explain.
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Indefinite integration acts as a tool to solve many physical problems.

There are many type of problems that require an indefinite integral to solve.

Basically indefinite integration is required when we deal with quantities that vary spatially or temporally.

As an example consider the following example:

Suppose that we need to calculate the total force on a object placed in a non- uniform field.

As an example let us consider a rod of length L that posses an charge 'q' per meter length and suppose that we place it in a non uniform electric field which is given by

E(x)=\frac{E_{o}}{e^{kx}}

Now in order to find the total force on the rod we cannot use the similar procedure as we can see that the force on the rod varies with the position of the rod.

But if w consider an element 'dx' of the rod at a distance 'x' from the origin the force on this element will be given by

dF=E(x)\times qdx\\\\dF=\frac{qE_{o}}{e^{kx}}dx

Now to find the whole force on the rod we need to sum this quantity over the whole length of the rod requiring integration, as shown

\int dF=\int \frac{qE_{o}}{e^{kx}}dx

Similarly there are numerous problems considering motion of particles that require applications of indefinite integration.

PLEASE HELP AND EXPLAIN WELL
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

so basically we know in 3 years she spent 390 dollars

so 390 divided by 3 is 130

so all we need to do is find this:

130 is what percent of 2600

so the final answer is 5%
