A triangle has a base of 10 inches and a height of 12 inches. What is the area of the triangle?

1 answer:

4 0

The area of a triangle is base x height x (1/2)
Plug in the values that are given.
Area = 10 x 12 x (1/2)
Area = 120 x (1/2)

Area = 60 in²

Hope this helps :)

The position s(t) of a robot moving along a track at time t is given by s(t)=9t^2−90t+4.

Xelga [282]

The total distance traveled by the robot from t=0 to t=9 is 1422 units

Integration is a way in which smaller components are brought together in pieces to form a whole. Integration can be used in finding areas, volumes and so on.

Given that the position s(t) at any time t is given by the function:

s(t)=9t²−90t+4

The total distance traveled by the robot from t=0 to t=9 can be gotten by integrating the position function within the limits 0< t < 9

Therefore:

$Total\ distance = \int\limits^9_0 {s(t) \, dt \\\\Total\ distance = \int\limits^9_0 {(9t^2-90t+4) \, dt\\\\Total\ distance = [3t^3-45t+4t]_0^9\\\\Total\ distance=-1422\ units$
