Three mulitplied by five-hundred eighty four
Answer: 3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the derivative of
to get
. Set that equal to 0 to find the critical points of the function. The critical points is when the slope is either 0 or undefined.
Now do:

There are quite a few more steps to actually find the minimum, but for this example you can automatically assume its a minimum because it is the only critical point of the function. Ill show you these extra steps tho.
Plug in two numbers into the derivative. One that is less than 3/10 and one that is greater than 3/10. The numbers 0 and 1 are fine. When x = 0, the function is -6. When x = 1, the function is +14. A switch from negative to positive indicates a minimum value
Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have:
Δx = 3/n
b − a = 3
a = 1
b = 4
So the integral is:
∫₁⁴ √x dx
To evaluate the integral, we write the radical as an exponent.
∫₁⁴ x^½ dx
= ⅔ x^³/₂ + C |₁⁴
= (⅔ 4^³/₂ + C) − (⅔ 1^³/₂ + C)
= ⅔ (8) + C − ⅔ − C
= 14/3
If ∫₁⁴ f(x) dx = e⁴ − e, then:
∫₁⁴ (2f(x) − 1) dx
= 2 ∫₁⁴ f(x) dx − ∫₁⁴ dx
= 2 (e⁴ − e) − (x + C) |₁⁴
= 2e⁴ − 2e − 3
∫ sec²(x/k) dx
k ∫ 1/k sec²(x/k) dx
k tan(x/k) + C
Evaluating between x=0 and x=π/2:
k tan(π/(2k)) + C − (k tan(0) + C)
k tan(π/(2k))
Setting this equal to k:
k tan(π/(2k)) = k
tan(π/(2k)) = 1
π/(2k) = π/4
1/(2k) = 1/4
2k = 4
k = 2
A centimetre is the most appropriate unit
