s(t) = 0.29t2 − t + 25 gallons per year (0 ≤ t ≤ 7), where t is time in years since the start of 2007. Use a Riemann sum with n

= 5 to estimate the total country's per capita sales of bottled water from the start of 2008 to the start of 2012. (Use a left Riemann sum to find your answer. Round your answer to the nearest gallon.) HINT [See Example 2.]

Answer: The answer is 300 gallons.

Step-by-step explanation: Riemann sum is a method of calculating the total  area under a curve on a graph, which is also known as Integral.

To calculate that area, we divide it into a number of rectangles with one point touching the curve. The curve has a closed interval [a,b] that can be subdivided into n subintervals, each having a width of Δx_{k} = \frac{b-a}{n}

If a function is defined on the closed interval [a,b] and c_{k} is any point in [x_{k-1},x_{k}], then a Riemann Sum is defined as ∑f(c_{k})Δx_{k}.

For this question:

Δx_{k} = \frac{7-0}{5} = 1.4

Now, we have to find s(t) for each valor on the interval:

s(t) = 0.29t^{2} - t +25

s(0) = 25

s(1) = 24.29

s(2) = 24.16

s(3) = 24.61

s(4) = 25.64

s(5) = 27.25

s(6) = 29.44

s(7) = 32.21

Now, using the formula:

∑f(c_{k})Δx_{k} = 1.4(25+24.29+24.16+24.61+25.64+29.44+32.21)

∑f(c_{k})Δx_{k} = 1.4(212.6)

∑f(c_{k})Δx_{k} ≅ 300

With Riemann Sum, it is estimated the total country's per capita sales of bottled water is 300 gallons.

The sales tax on a $250 computer is $17.50. find the sales tax rate
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Tax=tax rate times cost of product
tax=17.50
cost of product=250
17.50=rate times 250
divide both sides by 250
17.50/250=rate
0.07=rate
percent means parts out of 100
0.07/1 times 100/100=7/100=7%
7%=rate

answer is 7% tax
