If we use the substitution u = \tan x, then du = \sec^2 {x}\ dx. If you try substituting just u and du into the integrand, though, you'll notice that there's a \sec^2x left over that we have to deal with.

To get rid of this problem, use the identity \tan^2 x + 1 = \sec^2 x and substitute in the left side of the identity for the extra \sec^2x, as shown:

\int\limits^{\pi/6}_0 {tan^2 x \ sec^4 x} \, dx
\int\limits^{\pi/6}_0 {tan^2 x \ (tan^2 x + 1) \ sec^2 x} \, dx

From there, we can substitute in u and du, and then evaluate:

\int\limits^{\pi/6}_0 {tan^2 x \ (tan^2 x + 1) \ sec^2 x} \, dx
\int\limits^{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}_0 {u^2(u^2 + 1)} \, du
\int\limits^{\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}}_0 {u^4 + u^2} \, du
= \left.\frac{u^5}{5} + \frac{u^3}{3}\right|_0^\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}}
= (\frac{(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})^5}{5} + \frac{(\frac{1}{\sqrt{3}})^3}{3}) - (\frac{(0)^5}{5} + \frac{(0)^3}{3})
= \frac{1}{45\sqrt{3}} + \frac{1}{9\sqrt{3}} = \frac{6}{45\sqrt{3}} = \bf \frac{2}{15\sqrt{3}}

Solve for x.<br> -x/3=2<br><br> x= -6<br> x= -1<br> x = 6
LenKa [72]

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

-x/3 = 2

Multiply both sides of -x/3 = 2 by -3:

(-3 (-x))/3 = -3×2

-3×(-1)/3 = (-3 (-1))/3:

(-3 (-1))/3 x = -3×2

(-3)/3 = (3 (-1))/3 = -1:

--1 x = -3×2

(-1)^2 = 1:

x = -3×2

-3×2 = -6:

Answer:  x = -6

Can someone help me with this math homework please!
Ghella [55]

Answer:

y=\frac{5}{2} \:x

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with the highest absolute value of slope has the steepest graph

from the option, the highest is 5/2 so, y = 5/2 x is your answer.

(Segment Proofs)
Anni [7]

Answer:

It's proved below

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

- K is the midpoint of JL

- M is the midpoint of LN

By definition of mid points, we can say that;

JK = KL and LM = MN

Now, we are given that JK = MN.

Thus, by substitution, we can deduce that; KL = LM

Thus is because JK can be replaced with KL and MN can be replaced with LM.

Thus, it is proved that KL = LM
