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.

AB and BC are tangents of circle P. What is the value of x?
koban [17]
There are several information's already given in the question. It is very important to look at the attached diagram very closely. The angle given in the question is 73 degrees.
Then
x = 180 - 73
   = 107 degrees
I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and the answer has actually come to your desired help.
