How do you solve the following equation:
for ?

Now you need to solve the resulting equation, but it's not easy. The approx. solution is

The exact solution is

a = 3.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's integrate the function

3x^2 becomes 3x^3/3 =x^3

x becomes x^2/2

-1 becomes -x

The intergral is x^3 +x^2/2 -x

We take the upper limit minus the lower limit

a^3 +a^2/2 -a - (2^3 + 2^2/2 -2) and that is equal to 52

Simplify

a^3 + a^2/2 -a - (8+2-2) = 52

a^3 +a^2/2 -a -(8) = 52

Subtract 52 from each side

a^3 +a^2/2 -a -8-52 = 52-52

a^3 +a^2/2 -a -60 =0

Multiply by 2

2a^3 +a^2 -2a -120 = 0

Using a graphing system, we see it only has 1 real root

This is at approximately

3.84

for this case we have by definition, if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1.

then, given the following line:

so,

we are looking for m_ {2}:

then, the line is given by:

we find "b" replacing the given point:

finally, the equation is:

option c

44
