alex41 [277]

Answer:\frac{8}{3}\times \sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two upward facing parabolas  with equations

y=6x^2 & y=x^2+2

The two intersect at

6x^2=x^2+2

5x^2=2

x^2=\frac{2}{5}

x=\pm \sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}

area  enclosed by them is given by

A=\int_{-\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}}^{\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}}\left [ \left ( x^2+2\right )-\left ( 6x^2\right ) \right ]dx

A=\int_{\sqrt{-\frac{2}{5}}}^{\sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}}\left ( 2-5x^2\right )dx

A=4\left [ \sqrt{\frac{2}{5}} \right ]-\frac{5}{3}\left [ \left ( \frac{2}{5}\right )^\frac{3}{2}-\left ( -\frac{2}{5}\right )^\frac{3}{2} \right ]

A=\frac{8}{3}\times \sqrt{\frac{2}{5}}

I need help on this math problem.
OLEGan [10]

B: (0, a)

C should have the same y value as B

D: (a,0)

C should have the same x value as D


So point C is (a,a)

Since point A is on the origin, its point is (0,0)


You use the slope formula and plug in point A and C:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

m=\frac{a-0}{a-0}

m=\frac{a}{a}

m = 1


So the value that belongs in the green box is 1

Claire jogs 6 miles per hour and Megan jogs 5 miles per hour. they start together at their campsite and jog to an outpost 18 mil
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

16.364 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Claire = 6 miles per hour

Speed of Megan= 5 miles per hour

Distance from camp site to out post = 18 miles

Time for Claire to travel=18/6= 3 hours

Time for Megan to travel = 18/5 = 3.6 hours

The time they meet will be equal

Claire distance= 18 + x

Megan distance = 18-x

Claire time =( 18+x)/6

Megan Tim =( 18-x)/5

(18+x)/6 =(18-x)/5

5(18+x)= 6(18-x)

90 +5x = 108-6x

11x=18

X=18/11

X=1.636 Miles

So the distance from the Outpost to where they meet = 18-1.636

= 16.364 miles

The product of a number and 9 less than the number is 90. Find the number.
Goryan [66]

Let's say this number is a:
a*(a-9) = 90
a^2-9a-90 = 0
(a-15)(a+6) = 0
a = 15 or a = -6
Therefor a. would be the correct answer :)
