Answer:

Mean is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

For a skewed distribution, then the tail is longer to one side from the center than to the other. In a right skewed distribution, the tail is longer to the right.

When a distribution is skewed, the mean will be closer to the tail Than the median. Therefore. For a right skewed histogram, the mean is closer to the tail of the histogram and hence closer to the right. Once this happens, values closer to the right of a distribution are higher (number line). Thus the mean will be greater than the median.

The region bounded by the given curves is rotated about the specified axis. Find the volume V of the resulting solid by any meth

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

$\frac{128\pi}{3}$ cubic units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a region bounded by a curves $x=(y-7)^2$

x=4 and about y=5

We have to find the value of volume of the resulting solid

To find the volume of resulting solid we are using cylinder method

Substitute the values of x then we get

$(y-7)^2=4$

$y-7=\pm2$

y-7=2 and y-7=-2

y=7+2=9 and y=-2+7=5

Radius of cylinder =r=y-5

and height =h= $4-(y-7)^2=4-y^2-49+14 y=-y^2+14 y -45$

Using cylinder method and integrate along y -axis from y=5 to y=9

Volume = $\int_{a}^{b}2\pi r h dy=\int_{5}^{9}2\pi(y-5)(-y^2+14 y -45) dy$

volume= $2\pi\int_{5}^{9}(-y^3+19y^2-115y+225)dy$

Volume = $2\pi[-\frac{y^4}{4}+19\frac{y^3}{3}-115\frac{y^2}{2}+225y]^9_5$

Volume = $2\pi[-\frac{6561}{4}+\frac{625}{4}+19(\frac{729-125}{3})-115(\frac{81-25}{2})+225(9-5)]$

Volume= $2\pi(-1484+\frac{11476}{3}-3220+900)$

Volume = $2\pi(\frac{11476}{3}-3804)$

Volume = $2\pi(\frac{11476-11412}{3})=\frac{128\pi}{3}$

Hence, volume of resulting solid = $\frac{128\pi}{3}$ cubic units

Please help me!!! :(

Answer:

$15.75x^{10}y^{19}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the 5th term in the expansion, we first will need to apply the binomial theorem. I have attached an image of the binomial theorem formula due to not being able to type it.

After applying the binomial theorem and simplifying, you should get:

$512x^{18}y^{27}-576x^{16}y^{25}+288x^{14}y^{23}-84x^{12}y^{21}+\frac{63x^{10}y^{19}}{4}-\frac{63x^8y^{17}}{32}+\frac{21x^6y^{15}}{128}-\frac{9x^4y^{13}}{1024}+\frac{9x^2y^{11}}{32768}-\frac{y^9}{262144}$
