Using integrals, it is found that the particle travels 21.25 units between t = 0 and t = 5.

<h3>How is the total distance traveled calculated?</h3>
  • The <em>total distance traveled</em> by a particle modeled by an equation of position s(t) between t = a and t = b is given by:

D = \int_{a}^{b} s(t) dt

In this problem, the equation that models the position of the particle is:

s(t) = t^3 - 3t^2 - 2

Hence, applying integral properties, then the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, we have that the distance traveled is of:

D = \int_{a}^{b} s(t) dt

D = \int_{0}^{5} (t^3 - 3t^2 - 2) dt

D = \frac{t^4}{4} - t^3 - 2t|_{t = 0}^{t = 5}

D = \left(\frac{5^4}{4} - 5^3 - 2(5)\right) - \left(\frac{0^4}{4} - 0^3 - 2(0)\right)

D = 21.25

The particle travels 21.25 units between t = 0 and t = 5.

The lifetimes of 10,000 watch batteries are normally distributed the mean lifetime is 500 days the standard deviation is 60 days
Lelu [443]
Given:
μ = 500 days, the population mean
σ = 60 days, the population standard deviation

Therefore
μ + σ = 560
μ - σ = 440
μ + 2σ = 620
μ - 2σ = 380
μ + 3σ = 680
μ - 3σ = 320

The figure shown below illustrates the normal distribution
About 68% of the total area lies in x = (μ-σ, μ+σ)
About 95% of the total area lies in x = (μ-2σ, μ+2σ)
About 99.7% of the total area lies in x = (μ-3σ, μ+3σ).
