Consider the following theorem. Theorem If f is integrable on [a, b], then b a f(x) dx = lim n→[infinity] n i = 1 f(xi)Δx where

Split up the interval [1, 9] into <em>n</em> subintervals of equal length (9 - 1)/<em>n</em> = 8/<em>n</em> :

[1, 1 + 8/<em>n</em>], [1 + 8/<em>n</em>, 1 + 16/<em>n</em>], [1 + 16/<em>n</em>, 1 + 24/<em>n</em>], …, [1 + 8 (<em>n</em> - 1)/<em>n</em>, 9]

It should be clear that the left endpoint of each subinterval make up an arithmetic sequence, so that the <em>i</em>-th subinterval has left endpoint

1 + 8/<em>n</em> (<em>i</em> - 1)

Then we approximate the definite integral by the sum of the areas of <em>n</em> rectangles with length 8/<em>n</em> and height f(x_i) :

\displaystyle \int_1^9 (x^2-4x+6) \,\mathrm dx \approx \sum_{i=1}^n \frac8n\left(\left(1+\frac8n(i-1)\right)^2-4\left(1+\frac8n(i-1)\right)+6\right)

Take the limit as <em>n</em> approaches infinity and the approximation becomes exact. So we have

\displaystyle \int_1^9 (x^2-4x+6) \,\mathrm dx = \lim_{n\to\infty} \sum_{i=1}^n \frac8n\left(\left(1+\frac8n(i-1)\right)^2-4\left(1+\frac8n(i-1)\right)+6\right) \\\\ = \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac8n \sum_{i=1}^n \left(1+\frac{16}n(i-1)+\frac{64}{n^2}(i-1)^2-4-\frac{32}n(i-1)+6\right) \\\\= \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac8{n^3} \sum_{i=1}^n \left(64(i-1)^2-16n(i-1)+3n^2\right) \\\\= \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac8{n^3} \sum_{i=0}^{n-1} \left(64i^2-16ni+3n^2\right) \\\\= \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac8{n^3} \left(64\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}i^2 - 16n\sum_{i=0}^{n-1}i + 3n^2\sum{i=0}^{n-1}1\right) \\\\= \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac8{n^3} \left(\frac{64(2n-1)n(n-1)}{6} - \frac{16n^2(n-1)}{2} + 3n^3\right) \\\\= \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac8{n^3} \left(\frac{49n^3}3-24n^2+\frac{32n}3\right) \\\\= \lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{8\left(49n^2-72n+32\right)}{3n^2} = \boxed{\frac{392}3}

6: REDUCE to simplest term. 4/1 + 15/2​
vovangra [49]

Answer:

\frac{4}{15}+\:\frac{1}{2} in the simplest term is:

\frac{4}{15}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{23}{30}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

\frac{4}{15}+\:\frac{1}{2}

Thus, solving to reduce to the simplest term

\frac{4}{15}+\frac{1}{2}

LCM of 15, 2: 30

Adjusting fraction based on the LCM

so the expression becomes

\frac{4}{15}+\:\frac{1}{2}=\frac{8}{30}+\frac{15}{30}

Apply the fraction rule:      \frac{a}{c}+\frac{b}{c}=\frac{a+b}{c}

            =\frac{8+15}{30}

Add the numbers: 8+15 = 23

            =\frac{23}{30}

Therefore, \frac{4}{15}+\:\frac{1}{2} in the simplest term is:

\frac{4}{15}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{23}{30}

Write the equation of the circle in standard form: Center (7,0) R=1
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

(x-7)^2+y^2=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Equation of a circle: (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where the circle is centered at (h,k) and the radius is r

<u>1) Plug in the given center (7,0)</u>

(x-7)^2+(y-0)^2=r^2\\(x-7)^2+y^2=r^2

<u>2) Plug in the radius (1)</u>

(x-7)^2+y^2=1^2\\(x-7)^2+y^2=1

I hope this helps!
