Answer:

68 feets of fencing

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Area of square garden = 289 ft²

The side length of square garden can be obtained thus :

Area of a square = s²

Where s = side length

s² = 289

s = sqrt(289)

s = 17

Perimeter of square garden : 4s

Perimeter = 4* 17 = 68 feets

Which definite integral approximation formula is this: the integral from a to b of f(x)dx ≈ (b-a)/n * [<img src="https://tex.z-d
Stella [2.4K]

The answer is most likely A.

The integration interval [<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>] is split up into <em>n</em> subintervals of equal length (so each subinterval has width (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>, same as the coefficient of the sum of <em>y</em> terms) and approximated by the area of <em>n</em> rectangles with base (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em> and height <em>y</em>.

<em>n</em> subintervals require <em>n</em> + 1 points, with

<em>x</em>₀ = <em>a</em>

<em>x</em>₁ = <em>a</em> + (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

<em>x</em>₂ = <em>a</em> + 2(<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

and so on up to the last point <em>x</em> = <em>b</em>. The right endpoints are <em>x</em>₁, <em>x</em>₂, … etc. and the height of each rectangle are the corresponding <em>y </em>'s at these endpoints. Then you get the formula as given in the photo.

• "Average rate of change" isn't really relevant here. The AROC of a function <em>G(x)</em> continuous* over an interval [<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>] is equal to the slope of the secant line through <em>x</em> = <em>a</em> and <em>x</em> = <em>b</em>, i.e. the value of the difference quotient

(<em>G(b)</em> - <em>G(a)</em> ) / (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)

If <em>G(x)</em> happens to be the antiderivative of a function <em>g(x)</em>, then this is the same as the average value of <em>g(x)</em> on the same interval,

g_{\rm ave}=\dfrac{G(b)-G(a)}{b-a}=\dfrac1{b-a}\displaystyle\int_a^b g(x)\,\mathrm dx

(* I'm actually not totally sure that continuity is necessary for the AROC to exist; I've asked this question before without getting a particularly satisfying answer.)

• "Trapezoidal rule" doesn't apply here. Split up [<em>a</em>, <em>b</em>] into <em>n</em> subintervals of equal width (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>. Over the first subinterval, the area of a trapezoid with "bases" <em>y</em>₀ and <em>y</em>₁ and "height" (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em> is

(<em>y</em>₀ + <em>y</em>₁) (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

but <em>y</em>₀ is clearly missing in the sum, and also the next term in the sum would be

(<em>y</em>₁ + <em>y</em>₂) (<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em>

the sum of these two areas would reduce to

(<em>b</em> - <em>a</em>)/<em>n</em> = (<em>y</em>₀ + <u>2</u> <em>y</em>₁ + <em>y</em>₂)

which would mean all the terms in-between would need to be doubled as well to get

\displaystyle\int_a^b f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx\frac{b-a}n\left(y_0+2y_1+2y_2+\cdots+2y_{n-1}+y_n\right)

Sin cos and tan help
Nikitich [7]
Sin(B) = opp/hyp = 32/40 = 0.8
cos(B) = adj/hyp = 24/40 = 0.6
tan(B) = opp/adj = 32/24 = 1.33 (repeating)

If it's 8:23 pm now... What time would it be in 45 min? ( I want to see what everyone comes up with)
andreyandreev [35.5K]
8:23, after 45 minutes is technically 8: 68

however, the hour ends at 60 minutes, so your true answer is 9:08 pm

hope this helps

What is sin -1(1/2) if the terminal side of 0 is located in quadrant 1.
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

\sin^{-1}(\theta) is going to output a number in between \frac{-\pi}{2} and \frac{\pi}{2}.

Luckily you are looking for \theta in the 1st quadrant which is contained in the given interval above, so the answer just comes down to what the calculator returns from entering \sin^{-1}(\frac{1}{2}) in your calculator.

You may also use the unit circle.  sine value refers to the y-coordinate on there.

So you are looking for when the y-coordinate is 1/2 in the fist quadrant which is at 30 degrees.
