Answer: c. x = -3

5(x - 8) = -55

⇔ 5x - 40 = -55

⇔ 5x = -55 + 40 = -15

⇔ x = -15/5

⇔ x = -3

Find the average value of the function f(t)=cos13(5t)sin(5t) f(t)=cos13⁡(5t)sin⁡(5t) on the interval [4,10].

Vilka [71]

The average value is given by

$\displaystyle\frac1{10-4}\int_4^{10}\cos^{13}5t\sin5t\,\mathrm dt$

Setting $y=\cos5t$ , you get $\mathrm dy=-5\sin5t\,\mathrm dt$ , and the integral becomes

$\displaystyle-\frac1{30}\int_{\cos20}^{\cos50}y^{13}\,\mathrm dy$
$=-\dfrac1{30}\dfrac{y^{14}}{14}\bigg|_{y=\cos20}^{y=\cos50}$
$=-\dfrac{\cos^{14}50-\cos^{14}20}{420}\approx-0.00145$

Describe in words where the square root of twenty-four would be plotted on the number line.

Rzqust [24]

The square root of 24 would be plotted between 4 and 5, but closer to 5 on a number line.

<h3>What is a number line?</h3>

A number line is a horizontal line with evenly spaced numerical increments. The numbers on the line will dictate how you answer the number on the line.

A number line in elementary mathematics is a representation of a graduated straight line that serves as an abstraction for real numbers, denoted by \mathbb {R}. Every point on a number line is assumed to be a real number, and every real number is assumed to be a point.

Number lines are extremely adaptable, that can be used to locate numbers, compare numbers, fractions and mixed numbers, decimals, integers, absolute value, addition, subtraction, inequalities, multiples, common denominators, and much more.

The square root of $\sqrt{24}=4.899$ , which is between 4 and 5, but closer to 5 on a number line.
