Answer:

We conclude that the price is 3.5 times the number of board games.

Hence, option B is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when y varies directly with x, the equation is

y ∝ x

y = kx

k = y/x

where 'k' is called the proportionality constant.

From the table,

For the point (2, 7)

k = y/x

= 7/2

= 3.5

For the point (4, 14)

k = y/x

= 14 / 4

= 7/2

= 3.5

For the point (5, 17.50)

k = y/x

= 17.5 / 5

= 3.5

For the point (9, 31.50)

k = y/x

= 31.50 / 9

= 3.5

From the above calculations, we computed that the value of the proportionality constant remains the same.

Thus, the table of numbers represents a proportional relationship.

Therefore, the equation becomes

y = kx

The price of 2 board game

y = 3.5 (2)

= 7

The price of 4 board game

y = 3.5 (4)

= 14

Therefore, we conclude that the price is 3.5 times the number of board games.

Hence, option B is true.

Answer:

Each friend got 6 cars each

Step-by-step explanation:

17-5= 12 cars

He gave 12 cars away.

Since there are 2 friends, you divide the cars given away by 2, hence

12/2= 6

Area - Integrals

Integration Rule [Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle \int {x^n} \, dx = \frac{x^{n + 1}}{n + 1} + C$

Integration Rule [Fundamental Theorem of Calculus 1]: $\displaystyle \int\limits^b_a {f(x)} \, dx = F(b) - F(a)$

Integration Property [Addition/Subtraction]: $\displaystyle \int {[f(x) \pm g(x)]} \, dx = \int {f(x)} \, dx \pm \int {g(x)} \, dx$

Area of a Region Formula: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^b_a {[f(x) - g(x)]} \, dx$

Step-by-step explanation:

*Note:

Remember that for the Area of a Region, it is top function minus bottom function.

Step 1: Define

f(x) = x²

g(x) = x⁶

Bounded (Partitioned) by x-axis

Step 2: Identify Bounds of Integration

Find where the functions intersect (x-values) to determine the bounds of integration.

Simply graph the functions to see where the functions intersect (See Graph Attachment).

Interval: [-1, 1]

Lower bound: -1

Upper Bound: 1

Step 3: Find Area of Region

Integration

Substitute in variables [Area of a Region Formula]: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^1_{-1} {[x^2 - x^6]} \, dx$
[Area] Rewrite [Integration Property - Subtraction]: $\displaystyle A = \int\limits^1_{-1} {x^2} \, dx - \int\limits^1_{-1} {x^6} \, dx$
[Area] Integrate [Integration Rule - Reverse Power Rule]: $\displaystyle A = \frac{x^3}{3} \bigg| \limit^1_{-1} - \frac{x^7}{7} \bigg| \limit^1_{-1}$
[Area] Evaluate [Integration Rule - FTC 1]: $\displaystyle A = \frac{2}{3} - \frac{2}{7}$
[Area] Subtract: $\displaystyle A = \frac{8}{21}$
