Answer: Marcus's walking speed is 4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Marcus's walking speed.

His speed on the bicycle is 6 mi/h faster than his walking speed. This means that his speed on the bicycle would be

x + 6

Time = distance/speed

Time spent by Marcus in walking 1 mile to the library is

1/x

Time spent by Marcus in bicycling 2.5 miles to the sporting good store is

2.5/(x + 6)

Since the time that he spends in walking to the library is about the same time that he spends in bicycling to the sporting good store, then

1/x = 2.5/(x + 6)

Cross multiplying, it becomes

1 × (x + 6) = 2.5 × x

x + 6 = 2.5x

2.5x - x = 6

1.5x = 6

x = 6/1.5 = 4

Evaluate the definite integral. <br> 1 x4(1 + 2x5)5 dx.
Nata [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the definite integral \int\limits {\dfrac{x^4}{(1-2x^5)^5} } \, dx, we to evaluate it. Using integration by substitution method.

Let u = 1-2x⁵ ...1

du/dx = -10x⁴

dx = du/-10x⁴.... 2

Substitute equation 1 and 2 into the integral function and evaluate the resulting integral as shown;

= \int\limits {\dfrac{x^4}{u^5} } \, \dfrac{du}{-10x^4}

= \dfrac{-1}{10} \int\limits {\dfrac{du}{u^5} }  \\\\= \dfrac{-1}{10} \int\limits {{u^{-5}du }  \\= \dfrac{-1}{10} [{\frac{u^{-5+1}}{-5+1}]  \\\\= \dfrac{-1}{10} ({\frac{u^{-4}}{-4})\\\\

= \dfrac{u^{-4}}{40} \\\\\\= \dfrac{1}{40u^4} +C

substitute u = 1-2x⁵ into the result

= \dfrac{1}{40(1-2x^5)^4} +C

Hence\int\limits {\dfrac{x^4}{(1-2x^5)^5} } \, dx = \dfrac{1}{40(1-2x^5)^4} +C

Answer:

A.true

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain of a quadratic function in standard form is always all real numbers, meaning you can substitute any real number for x. The range of a function is the set of all real values of y that you can get by plugging real numbers into x.
