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.

What is the total number of outcomes for choosing a numbered card from 1 to 10 and a number on a
ycow [4]

the total number of out comes would be 16^2 or 256.

some extra things...

A numbered card from 1 - 10 would be 1 over 10 or 10% chance of picking correctly.

a number cube from 1 - 6 would be 1 over 6 or 16.66% chance of picking correctly.

if you want to combine these and pick one from both, it becomes 1 over 16 or 6.25% chance of picking both correctly.
