I don't get how to solve for x with prathesis

1 answer:

5 0

Just remember that something outside the parentheses applies to everything inside.

Examples:

3 times (x + 2) . . . . . means . . . . . 3 times 'x' plus 3 times 2

a (b + c) . . . . . means . . . . . ab plus ac

4 (w + x + y + 2) . . . means . . . 4w + 4x + 4y + 8

When somebody gives you an equation that has parentheses in it,
the first thing you're always supposed to do is get rid of them.
With the examples I just gave you, you know how to do that now.

Evaluate the definite integral using the graph of f(x) (Image included)

Tanya [424]

a) The first integral corresponds to the area under y = f(x) on the interval [0, 3], which is a right triangle with base 3 and height 5, hence the integral is

$\displaystyle \int_0^3 f(x) \, dx = \frac12 \times 3 \times 5 = \boxed{\frac{15}2}$

b) The integral is zero since the areas under the curve over [3, 4] and [4, 5] are equal but opposite in sign. In other words, on the interval [3, 5], f(x) is symmetric and odd about x = 4, so

$\displaystyle \int_3^5 f(x) \, dx = \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx + \int_4^5 f(x) \, dx = \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx - \int_3^4 f(x) \, dx = \boxed{0}$

c) The integral over [5, 9] is the negative of the area of a rectangle with length 9 - 5 = 4 and height 5, so

$\displaystyle \int_5^9 f(x) \, dx = -4\times5 = -20$

Then by linearity, we have

$\displaystyle \int_0^9 f(x) \, dx = \left\{\int_0^3 + \int_3^5 + \int_5^9\right\} f(x) \, dx = \frac{15}2 + 0 - 20 = \boxed{-\frac{25}2}$
