  • integration involving e base, am i doing it correctly?

    ∫e^(0.08t) * e^(0.12(20 - t)) dt

    I just simplified the right term to e^-12t + 2.4. Which I rewrote combing both e and getting:

    ∫e^(0.08t +2.4 - 0.12t) = ∫e^(-0.04t + 2.4) dt and too the intergral of that, am i right?

  • How would I finish this integration problem?

    ∫x^3 (x^2 + 1)^(3/2)

    I tried things like setting u = X^3 and then Du = 2x^2, but I need it to somehow be x^2 +1..???? Really confused could someone direct me in the right direction. Any help would be great.

  • Difficult Integration problem, please help?

    a. ∫ (xe^-x2 + ((e^x) / (e^x + 3))

    i don't know which term to make u and which on to make du. I know for sure you have to use U-substitituion but don't know where. Anyone who can help would be great.

    b. ∫ Upper bound: e lower bound 1 : e^-x / ((1+e^-x)^2) dx

  • Am I doing this integration problem correctly?

    ∫ (x) / √(x-2) dx

    Let u = x - 2. Then du = dx because the derivative of x - 2 is 1 - 0 = 1 times dx.

    Note that x = u + 2. Making these substitutions the integral is now

    INT {(u+2)/sqrt(u)} du

    INT {(u+2)/u^(1/2)} du

    INT {u^(1/2) + 2u^(-1/2)} du ------> (I don't understand where the (1/2) comes from?????)

    (2/3)u^(3/2) + 4u^(1/2) + C

    (2/3)(x - 2)^(3/2) + 4(x - 2)^(1/2) + C

  • Help finishing an integration Problem?

  • Am I doing this integration problem correctly?

    Integrate the following:

    ∫ √(2x + 1) dx

    Rewrite: ∫ (2x + 1)^(1/2)

    Let u = 2x + 1 ; Let du = 2 dx

    In the equation du = 2 dx, I divided both sides by 2 and got du/2 = dx

    ∫ u^(1/2) * du/2 = 1/2∫ u^(1/2) * du = ∫ 2/3u^(3/2) * du = 1/3 ∫ (2x + 1) ^(3/2) + C

  • Domain of a function?

    Give the domain of definition of the function f(x) = (√x-2) / (√ x+3)

    P.S In the problem, the whole fraction is under a giant root, I just broke it up, since I can't make the giant root symbol.

  • ethical question in accounting?

    Many small business have to squeeze down costs any way they can just to survive. One way many businesses do this is by hiring workers as "independent contractors" rather than as regular employees. Unlike rules for regular employees, a business does not have to pay Social Security (FICA) taxes and unemployment insurance payments for independent contractors. Similarly, they do not have to withhold federal income taxes or the employee's share FICA taxes. The IRS has a "20 factor test" that determines whether a worker should be considered an employee or a contractor, but many businesses ignore those rules or interpret them loosely in their favor. When workers are treated as independent contractors, they do not get a W-2 form at tax time (they get a 1099), they do not have any income taxes withheld, and they find themselves subject to "self-employment" taxes, by which they bear the brunt of both the employee and the employer's share of FICA taxes.

    Requirement

    1. When a business abuses this issue, how is the independent contractor hurt?

    2. Id a business takes an aggressive position - that is, interprets the law in a very slanted way - is there an ethical issue involved? who's hurt?

  • accounting ethical question?

    Western Bank & Trust purchased land and a building for the lump sum of $3,000,000. To get the maximum tax deductions, Western allocated 90% of the purchase price to the building and only 10% to the land. A more realistic allocation would have been 70% to the building and 30% to the land.

    Requirements

    1. Explain the tax advantage of allocating too much to the building and too little to the land.

    2. Was Western's allocation ehtical? If so, state why. If not, why not? Identify who was harmed.
