A grocery store owner is planning a display by stacking cans of soup in a pyramid. The top row of the stack will have 1 can, the

row underneath it will have 3 cans, the row underneath it will have 5 cans, and so on. If the owner wants the display to have a total of 12 rows, then how many cans will he need?

Answer: Choice C

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\left(1 - \frac{1}{e^2}\right)

============================================================

Explanation:

The graph is shown below. The base of the 3D solid is the blue region. It spans from x = 0 to x = 1. It's also above the x axis, and below the curve y = e^{-x}

Think of the blue region as the floor of this weirdly shaped 3D room.

We're told that the cross sections are perpendicular to the x axis and each cross section is a square. The side length of each square is e^{-x} where 0 < x < 1

Let's compute the area of each general cross section.

\text{area} = (\text{side})^2\\\\\text{area} = (e^{-x})^2\\\\\text{area} = e^{-2x}\\\\

We'll be integrating infinitely many of these infinitely thin square slabs to find the volume of the 3D shape. Think of it like stacking concrete blocks together, except the blocks are side by side (instead of on top of each other). Or you can think of it like a row of square books of varying sizes. The books are very very thin.

This is what we want to compute

\displaystyle \int_{0}^{1}e^{-2x}dx\\\\

Apply a u-substitution

u = -2x

du/dx = -2

du = -2dx

dx = du/(-2)

dx = -0.5du

Also, don't forget to change the limits of integration

  • If x = 0, then u = -2x = -2(0) = 0
  • If x = 1, then u = -2x = -2(1) = -2

This means,

\displaystyle \int_{0}^{1}e^{-2x}dx = \int_{0}^{-2}e^{u}(-0.5du) = 0.5\int_{-2}^{0}e^{u}du\\\\\\

I used the rule that \displaystyle \int_{a}^{b}f(x)dx = -\int_{b}^{a}f(x)dx which says swapping the limits of integration will have us swap the sign out front.

--------

Furthermore,

\displaystyle 0.5\int_{-2}^{0}e^{u}du = \frac{1}{2}\left[e^u+C\right]_{-2}^{0}\\\\\\= \frac{1}{2}\left[(e^0+C)-(e^{-2}+C)\right]\\\\\\= \frac{1}{2}\left[1 - \frac{1}{e^2}\right]

In short,

\displaystyle \int_{0}^{1}e^{-2x}dx = \frac{1}{2}\left[1 - \frac{1}{e^2}\right]

This points us to choice C as the final answer.

2. Afton made a chicken dish for dinner. Sheadded a 10-ounce package of vegetablesand a 14-ounce package of rice to 40 ouncesof
Bad White [126]
First, we need to add up all the quantities in ounces. 10 + 14 + 40 = 64. One pound = 16 ounces. 64 / 16 = 4, so the total weight in pounds is 4 lbs.

Point B is on the graph of the function f(x) = -3x^2. If the x-coordinate of point B is 2, which ordered pair gives the location
Oksana_A [137]
<span>f(x) = -3x^2</span>
insert x=2
y=-3*2^2
y=-3*4
y=-12
so your pair is (2,-12)

HELP PLEASE!
Citrus2011 [14]
A table can be used to find the rate of change by giving you a visual representation of how the operation changes over time for example in the link i'm about to post you can see how much more money is earned as more cars are washed, it is showing how much money is being made OVER TIME, hope this helps :)

now to answer your second question, say you would like to know how many miles Tracy ran over a course of 2 hours, the x axis would be the miles and the y axis would be the time, then you would plot the different points on the graph showing the rate at which she is running
'
to answer your last question a linear interval would be a sequence of numbers that when places on a number line they will form a line, a nonlinear interval is a sequence of numbers that don't make a line because there are inequities meaning the numbers in the sequence are all over the place 

Hope this helps and i will post the pictures so you can have a visual representaion
