Answer: 5 games
Step-by-step explanation: They need to win half their games for a .500 record and half or 30 is 15. They already won 10 so they need to win 15- 10 = 5 more games to have a .500 record.
112-88 = 24
they save $24 per month
so 650/24 = 27.083
so it will pay for itself in 27.083 months, round up to 28 months
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 3 + 8x^(³/₂), 0 ≤ x ≤ 1
dy/dx = 12√x
Arc length is:
s = ∫ ds
s = ∫₀¹ √(1 + (dy/dx)²) dx
s = ∫₀¹ √(1 + (12√x)²) dx
s = ∫₀¹ √(1 + 144x) dx
If u = 1 + 144x, then du = 144 dx.
s = 1/144 ∫ √u du
s = 1/144 (⅔ u^(³/₂))
s = 1/216 u^(³/₂)
Substitute back:
s = 1/216 (1 + 144x)^(³/₂)
Evaluate between x=0 and x=1.
s = [1/216 (1 + 144)^(³/₂)] − [1/216 (1 + 0)^(³/₂)]
s = 1/216 (145)^(³/₂) − 1/216
s = (145√145 − 1) / 216
