7/8 of a rectangle is colored red. Damien cuts this red part into a number of pieces so that each piece is 1/24 of the whole rec

tangle. Find the number of red pieces Damien has.

Answer: Damien has 21 red pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

First, 7/8 of the rectangle is coloured red.

Then, the 7/8 was cut into a size 1/24 of the rectangle each.

That consequently means that 24 of those pieces will form the whole shape.

Since red covers 7/8 of the rectangle, the number of red pieces invariably becomes

⅞ × 24 pieces, which is equal to 21 pieces

Therefore, Damien has cut the red part of the rectangle into 21 pieces

Answer:

$y=\frac{-7t^2+22t-7}{7t-22}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Initial value problem

$y'=(t+y)^2-1$ , y(3)=4

Substitute the value $z=t+y$

When t=3 and y=4 then

z=3+4=7

$y'=z^2-1$

Differentiate z w.r.t t

Then, we get

$\frac{dz}{dt}=1+y'$

$z'=1+z^2-1=z^2$

$z^{-2}dz=dt$

Integrate on both sides

$-\frac{1}{z}dz=t+C$

$z=-\frac{1}{t+C}$

Substitute t=3 and z=7

Then, we get

$7=-\frac{1}{3+C}$

$21+7C=-1$

$7C=-1-21=-22$

$C=-\frac{22}{7}$

Substitute the value of C then we get

$z=-\frac{1}{t-\frac{22}{7}}$

$z=\frac{-7}{7t-22}$

$y=z-t$

$y=\frac{-7}{7t-22}-t$

$y=\frac{-7-7t^2+22t}{7t-22}$

$y=\frac{-7t^2+22t-7}{7t-22}$

Lerok [7]

Answer:

For school A: Minimum=6, Q₁=6.5, Median= 14, Q₃=16, Maximum=17, IQR=9.5

For school B: Minimum=5, Q₁=8, Median= 12, Q₃=15.5, Maximum=19, IQR=7.5

No, the box plots are not symmetric.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The given data sets are

School A : 9,14,15,17,17,7,15,6,6

School B : 12,8,13,11,19,15,16,5,8

Arrange the data in ascending order.

School A : 6,6,7,9,14,15,15,17,17

School B : 5,8,8,11,12,13,15,16,19

Divide each data set in four equal parts.

School A : (6,6),(7,9),14,(15,15),(17,17)

School B : (5,8),(8,11),12,(13,15),(16,19)

For school A:

Minimum=6, Q₁=6.5, Median= 14, Q₃=16, Maximum=17

Interquartile range of the data is

$IQR=Q_3-Q_1=16-6.5=9.5$

For school B:

Minimum=5, Q₁=8, Median= 12, Q₃=15.5, Maximum=19

Interquartile range of the data is

$IQR=Q_3-Q_1=15.5-8=7.5$

Part B:

The box plots are not symmetric because the data values are different. Five number summary and IQR of both the data set are different.

Answer:

(a) $\int sin(\pi x) dx$ $=-\frac {cos \pi x}{\pi}+c$

(b) $\int e^\frac{x}{2} dx$ $=2e^\frac{x}{2}+c$

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

$\int sin(\pi x) dx$

Let u = π x

differentiating with respect to x

du = π dx

$\Rightarrow dx=\frac{du}{\pi}$

Putting the value of x and dx

$=\int sin u \frac{du}{\pi}$

$=\frac{-cos u}{\pi}+c$ [ c is an arbitrary constant]

Now putting the value of u

$=-\frac {cos \pi x}{\pi}+c$

(b)

$\int e^\frac{x}{2} dx$

Let $u=\frac{x}{2}$

differentiating with respect to x

$du= \frac{1}{2} dx$

2du = dx

Putting the value of x and dx

= $\int e^u.2.du$

= $2e^u +c$

Now putting the value of u

$=2e^\frac{x}{2}+c$ [ c is an arbitrary constant]
