Multiply 100 pounds by 5%: 100 x 0.05 = 5 pounds.

Subtract that from the original weight:

100 - 5 = 95

He will weigh 95 pounds

Answer:

95 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

5% as a decimal is 0.05 (because it is written as five one hundredths)

0.05x100=5 this represents how much he will lose

100-5=95

he will weigh 95 pounds

$\displaystyle\int\frac{\cos x+3\sin x+7}{\cos x+\sin x+1}\,\mathrm dx=\int\mathrm dx+2\int\frac{\sin x+3}{\cos x+\sin x+1}\,\mathrm dx$

For the remaining integral, let $t=\tan\dfrac x2$ . Then

$\sin x=\sin\left(2\times\dfrac x2\right)=2\sin\dfrac x2\cos\dfrac x2=\dfrac{2t}{1+t^2}$
$\cos x=\cos\left(2\times\dfrac x2\right)=\cos^2\dfrac x2-\sin^2\dfrac x2=\dfrac{1-t^2}{1+t^2}$

and

$\mathrm dt=\dfrac12\sec^2\dfrac x2\,\mathrm dx\implies \mathrm dx=2\cos^2\dfrac x2\,\mathrm dt=\dfrac2{1+t^2}\,\mathrm dt$

Now the integral is

$\displaystyle\int\mathrm dx+2\int\frac{\dfrac{2t}{1+t^2}+3}{\dfrac{1-t^2}{1+t^2}+\dfrac{2t}{1+t^2}+1}\times\frac2{1+t^2}\,\mathrm dt$

The first integral is trivial, so we'll focus on the latter one. You have

$\displaystyle2\int\frac{2t+3(1+t^2)}{(1-t^2+2t+1+t^2)(1+t^2)}\,\mathrm dt=2\int\frac{3t^2+2t+3}{(1+t)(1+t^2)}\,\mathrm dt$

Decompose the integrand into partial fractions:

$\dfrac{3t^2+2t+3}{(1+t)(1+t^2)}=\dfrac2{1+t}+\dfrac{1+t}{1+t^2}$

so you have

$\displaystyle2\int\frac{3t^2+2t+3}{(1+t)(1+t^2)}\,\mathrm dt=4\int\frac{\mathrm dt}{1+t}+2\int\frac{\mathrm dt}{1+t^2}+\int\frac{2t}{1+t^2}\,\mathrm dt$

which are all standard integrals. You end up with

$\displaystyle\int\mathrm dx+4\int\frac{\mathrm dt}{1+t}+2\int\frac{\mathrm dt}{1+t^2}+\int\frac{2t}{1+t^2}\,\mathrm dt$
$=x+4\ln|1+t|+2\arctan t+\ln(1+t^2)+C$
$=x+4\ln\left|1+\tan\dfrac x2\right|+2\arctan\left(\arctan\dfrac x2\right)+\ln\left(1+\tan^2\dfrac x2\right)+C$
$=2x+4\ln\left|1+\tan\dfrac x2\right|+\ln\left(\sec^2\dfrac x2\right)+C$

To try to get the terms to match up with the available answers, let's add and subtract $\ln\left|1+\tan\dfrac x2\right|$ to get

$2x+5\ln\left|1+\tan\dfrac x2\right|+\ln\left(\sec^2\dfrac x2\right)-\ln\left|1+\tan\dfrac x2\right|+C$
$2x+5\ln\left|1+\tan\dfrac x2\right|+\ln\left|\dfrac{\sec^2\dfrac x2}{1+\tan\dfrac x2}\right|+C$

which suggests A may be the answer. To make sure this is the case, show that

$\dfrac{\sec^2\dfrac x2}{1+\tan\dfrac x2}=\sin x+\cos x+1$

You have

$\dfrac{\sec^2\dfrac x2}{1+\tan\dfrac x2}=\dfrac1{\cos^2\dfrac x2+\sin\dfrac x2\cos\dfrac x2}$
$\dfrac{\sec^2\dfrac x2}{1+\tan\dfrac x2}=\dfrac1{\dfrac{1+\cos x}2+\dfrac{\sin x}2}$
$\dfrac{\sec^2\dfrac x2}{1+\tan\dfrac x2}=\dfrac2{\cos x+\sin x+1}$

So in the corresponding term of the antiderivative, you get

$\ln\left|\dfrac{\sec^2\dfrac x2}{1+\tan\dfrac x2}\right|=\ln\left|\dfrac2{\cos x+\sin x+1}\right|$
$=\ln2-\ln|\cos x+\sin x+1|$

The $\ln2$ term gets absorbed into the general constant, and so the antiderivative is indeed given by A,

$\displaystyle\int\frac{\cos x+3\sin x+7}{\cos x+\sin x+1}\,\mathrm dx=2x+5\ln\left|1+\tan\dfrac x2\right|-\ln|\cos x+\sin x+1|+C$

How to do this question plz

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

the answer is 17.60

Step-by-step explanation:

if im not mistaken the answer is 17.60. this is because 1/3 of 24 is 8, and 12x2 (the two kids) equals 24, and 60% off of 24 is 9.6. 8+9.6 is 17.6(0) :)

A random sample of 11 nursing students from Group 1 resulted in a mean score of 41.3 with a standard deviation of 6.8. A random

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

At 1% significance level, this difference is considered to be extremely statistically significant.

Step-by-step explanation:

Group Group One Group Two

Mean 41.300 54.800

SD 6.800 6.000

SEM 2.050 1.604

N 11 14

H0: Mean of group I = Mean of group II

Ha: Mean of group I < mean of group II

(Left tailed test at 1% significance level)

The mean of Group One minus Group Two equals -13.500

standard error of difference = 2.563

t = 5.2681

df = 23

p value= 0.00005

Since p < significance level, reject H0
