The direction David is rowing (upstream) is the positive direction. That makes the direction the river is flowing negative. David rows at 6 mph, but the river is flowing at 2 mph in the opposite direction. That means his "net" speed, relative to an observer on the ground, is 6-2 = 4 mph. He loses 1.5 mph of his speed every hour, so after x hours, his speed is 4-1.5x.

The value of integration of y=16-x^{2} from x=-1 to x=1 is 94/3.

Given the equation y=16-x^{2} and the limit of the integral be x=-1,x=1.

We are required to find the value of integration of y=16-x^{2} from x=-1 to x=1.

Equation is relationship between two or more variables that are expressed in equal to form.Equation of two variables look like ax+by=c.It may be linear equation, quadratic equation, or many more depending on the power of variable.

Integration is basically opposite of differentiation.

y=16-x^{2}

Find the integration of 16-x^{2}.

=16x-x^{3}/3

Now find the value of integration from x=-1 to x=1.

=16(1)-(1)^{3}/3-16(-1)-(-1)^{3}/3

=16(1)-1/3+16-1/3

=32-2/3

=(96-2)/3

=94/3

Hence the value of integration of y=16-x^{2} from x=-1 to x=1 is 94/3.

What is the value of x when 2x+3=3x-4
slavikrds [6]
2x+3=3x-4
try to isolate the x term
you must do the same thing to both sides or else it won't be equal anymore

2x+3=3x-4
add 4 to both sides
2x+3+4=3x+4-4
2x+7=3x+0
subtract 2x from both sides
2x-2x+7=3x-2x
0+7=x
7=x

the answer is x=7
