Answer with explanation:

Rational numbers are those numbers which can be written in the form of $\frac{a}{b}$ , where , b≠0.

Rational number can be written in the following way:

Integers + Terminating Decimal + Non terminating Repeating Decimal

When you will look at , fraction $\frac{1}{5}$ , it is terminating Decimal.

So, apart from any irrational number which is non terminating non repeating , if you multiply $\frac{1}{5}$ , with any number on the number line , that is any rational number ,because product of two rational is always a rational ,you will get a rational number.

Replace x with π/2 - x to get the equivalent integral

$\displaystyle \int_{-\frac\pi2}^{\frac\pi2} \cos(\cot(x) - \tan(x)) \, dx$

but the integrand is even, so this is really just

$\displaystyle 2 \int_0^{\frac\pi2} \cos(\cot(x) - \tan(x)) \, dx$

Substitute x = 1/2 arccot(u/2), which transforms the integral to

$\displaystyle 2 \int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{\cos(u)}{u^2+4} \, du$

There are lots of ways to compute this. What I did was to consider the complex contour integral

$\displaystyle \int_\gamma \frac{e^{iz}}{z^2+4} \, dz$

where γ is a semicircle in the complex plane with its diameter joining (-R, 0) and (R, 0) on the real axis. A bound for the integral over the arc of the circle is estimated to be

$\displaystyle \left|\int_{z=Re^{i0}}^{z=Re^{i\pi}} f(z) \, dz\right| \le \frac{\pi R}{|R^2-4|}$

which vanishes as R goes to ∞. Then by the residue theorem, we have in the limit

$\displaystyle \int_{-\infty}^\infty \frac{\cos(x)}{x^2+4} \, dx = 2\pi i {} \mathrm{Res}\left(\frac{e^{iz}}{z^2+4},z=2i\right) = \frac\pi{2e^2}$

and it follows that

$\displaystyle \int_0^\pi \cos(\cot(x)-\tan(x)) \, dx = \boxed{\frac\pi{e^2}}$

Bethany and Aidan each have candy bars that are the same size and shape. Bethany's candy bar is marked so that it can be broken

vivado [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is most likely about what percentage of the candy does each individual have left. Since the phrase is explaining that each ones candy bar is the same size and can be broken into equally divided pieces then it is most likely about figuring out which one of the individual's has more candy left over when compared to the other's candy. This is possible since both candies are the same size but more information would be needed.

What roles did militias play in the American Revolution? Your answer:

Annette [7]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

A militia is a local army. During the Battle of Lexington and Concord, the local militia (called minutemen), the militia outnumbered the British at Concord and chased them all the way back to Boston. The militia aided in many American victories during the Revolutionary War.

I hope that this helps! Have a wonderful day! :D
