By using principle of mathematical induction it is proved that recursive algorithm correctly computes n² for any non-negative integer n.

Here is a recursive algorithm to compute n² using the given fact,

def compute_square(n):

   if n == 0:

       return 0

   else:

       return compute_square(n-1) + 2*n - 1

To prove the correctness of this algorithm using mathematical induction, we need to show that it satisfies two conditions,

Base case,

The algorithm correctly computes 0², which is 0.

Inductive step,

Assume the algorithm correctly computes k² for some arbitrary positive integer k.

Show that it also correctly computes (k+1)².

Let us prove these two conditions,

Base case,

When n = 0, the algorithm correctly returns 0, which is the correct value for 0².

Thus, the base case is satisfied.

Inductive step,

Assume that the algorithm correctly computes k².

Show that it also computes (k+1)².

By the given fact, we know that (k+1)² = k² + 2k + 1.

Let us consider the recursive call compute_square(k).

By our assumption, this correctly computes k². Adding 2k and subtracting 1 (as per the given fact) to the result gives us,

compute_square(k) + 2k - 1 = k² + 2k - 1

This expression is equal to (k+1)² as per the given fact.

The proof assumes that the recursive function compute_square is implemented correctly and that the given fact is true.

If the algorithm correctly computes k², it will also correctly compute (k+1)².

Therefore, by principle of mathematical induction it is shown that recursive algorithm correctly computes n² for any non-negative integer n.

The specific values of A, B, C, r1, and r2 depend on the particular values of x and y.

The second equation with respect to t:

[tex]d^2y/dt^2 = d/dt(-x^3y - 2xy)[/tex]

[tex]d^2y/dt^2 = -3x^2(dy/dt)y - x^3(dy/dt) - 2y(dx/dt) - 2x(dy/dt)[/tex]

Substituting dx/dt and dy/dt from the given system, we get:

[tex]d^2y/dt^2 = -3x^2y(2 - x - y) - x^4y + 2xy^2 + 2x^2y[/tex]

Simplifying, we obtain:

[tex]d^2y/dt^2 = -3x^2y^2 + x^3y - 6x^2y + 2xy^2[/tex]

This is a second order differential equation in y.

To solve this equation, we assume that y has the form y = e^(rt), where r is a constant.

Substituting this into the equation, we get:

[tex]r^2e^{(rt)} = -3x^2e^{(2t)}e^{(rt)} + x^3e^{(rt)}e^{(rt)} - 6x^2e^{(2t)}e^{(rt)} + 2xe^{(rt)}e^{(2t)}e^{(rt)[/tex]

[tex]r^2 = -3x^2e^{(2t)} + x^3e^{(2t)} - 6x^2e^{(t)} + 2x[/tex]

This is a quadratic equation in r. Solving for r, we get:

r =[tex][-b \pm \sqrt{(b^2 - 4ac)]}/(2a)[/tex]

where a = 1, b = [tex]6x^2 - x^3e^{(2t)}[/tex], and c =[tex]-3x^2e^{(2t)} + 2x[/tex]

Now, using the initial condition y(0) = 4, we can determine the values of the constants A and B in the general solution:

y(t) = [tex]Ae^{(r1t)} + Be^{(r2t)[/tex]

where r1 and r2 are the roots of the quadratic equation above.

Finally, using the first equation in the given system, we can solve for x:

dx/dt = x(2 - x - y)

dx/dt =[tex]x(2 - x - Ae^{(r1t)} - Be^{(r2t)})[/tex]

Separating variables and integrating, we get:

The final solutions for x(t) and y(t) with initial conditions x(0) = 3 and y(0) = 4 are:

x(t) = 1 + e^t + 1/(t-2) + (t-2)e^t

y(t) = 4 - e^(x-2)t - cos(2t)

Differentiating the second equation with respect to t, we get:

d²y/dt² = d/dt(-x³y-2xy) = -3x²(dy/dt)y - x³(dy/dt) - 2y(dx/dt) - 2x(dx/dt)y

Substituting for dx/dt and dy/dt using the given equations, we get:

d²y/dt² = -3x²y(2-x-y) - x³(-x³y-2xy) - 2y(x(2-x-y)) - 2x(-x³y-2xy)

= -3x²y² + 3x³y² + 2xy - x⁴y + 4x²y - 4x³y

Simplifying the equation, we get:

d²y/dt² = x²y(-x² + 3x - 3) + 2xy(2-x)

Now, substituting the given initial conditions, we get:

x(0) = 3 and y(0) = 4

To solve for y(t), we assume y(t) = e^(rt), then substituting it in the second order differential equation, we get:

r²e^(rt) = x²e^(rt)(-x² + 3x - 3) + 2xe^(rt)(2-x)

Dividing by e^(rt) and simplifying, we get:

r² = x²(-x² + 3x - 3) + 2x(2-x)

= -x⁴ + 5x³ - 6x² + 4x

Solving for r, we get:

r = 0, x-2, x-2i, x+2i

Therefore, the general solution for y(t) is:

y(t) = c₁ + c₂e^((x-2)t) + c₃cos(2t) + c₄sin(2t)

To solve for x(t), we use the given equation:

dx/dt = x(2 −x −y)

Substituting y(t) from the above solution, we get:

dx/dt = x(2 - x - (c₁ + c₂e^((x-2)t) + c₃cos(2t) + c₄sin(2t)))

Separating variables and integrating, we get:

∫[x/(x² - 2x + 1 - c₂e^((x-2)t))]dx = ∫dt

Using partial fractions to integrate the left side, we get:

∫[1/(x-1) - c₂e^((x-2)t)/(x-1)^2]dx = t + c₅

Solving for x(t), we get:

x(t) = 1 + c₆e^(t) + c₇/(t-2) + c₈(t-2)e^(t)

Using the given initial condition x(0) = 3, we get:

c₆ + c₇ = 2

Therefore, the final solution for x(t) is:

x(t) = 1 + c₆e^(t) + [2-c₆]/(t-2) + (t-2)e^(t)

Substituting c₆ = 1 and solving for c₇, we get:

c₇ = 1

Therefore, the final solutions for x(t) and y(t) with initial conditions x(0) = 3 and y(0) = 4 are:

x(t) = 1 + e^t + 1/(t-2) + (t-2)e^t

y(t) = c₁ + c₂e^(x-2)t + c₃cos(2t) + c₄sin(2t)

To solve for the constants c₁, c₂, c₃, and c₄, we use the initial condition y(0) = 4. Substituting t = 0 and y = 4 in the solution for y(t), we get:

4 = c₁ + c₂e^(-2) + c₃cos(0) + c₄sin(0)

4 = c₁ + c₂e^(-2) + c₃

Using the given value of c₂ = x-2 = 1, we can solve for the remaining constants:

c₁ = 3 - c₃

c₄ = 0

Substituting these values in the solution for y(t), we get:

y(t) = 3 - c₃ + e^(x-2)t

To solve for c₃, we use the initial condition y(0) = 4. Substituting t = 0 and y = 4, we get:

4 = 3 - c₃ + e^(x-2)*0

c₃ = -1

Therefore, the final solutions for x(t) and y(t) with initial conditions x(0) = 3 and y(0) = 4 are:

x(t) = 1 + e^t + 1/(t-2) + (t-2)e^t

y(t) = 4 - e^(x-2)t - cos(2t)

The null and alternative hypotheses are: H0: σ21 = σ22 and Ha: σ21 ≠ σ22(C).

To find the critical value, we need to use the F-distribution with degrees of freedom (df1 = n1 - 1, df2 = n2 - 1) at a significance level of α/2 = 0.005 (since this is a two-tailed test).

Using a calculator or a table, we find that the critical values are F0.005(12,7) = 4.963 (for the left tail) and F0.995(12,7) = 0.202 (for the right tail).

The test statistic is calculated as F = s21/s22, where s21 and s22 are the sample variances and n1 and n2 are the sample sizes. Plugging in the given values, we get F = 5.7^2/5.1^2 = 1.707.

Since this value is not in the rejection region (i.e., it is between the critical values), we fail to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, we do not have sufficient evidence to claim that the population variances are different at the 0.01 level of significance.

(c)  To sketch the graph of v and its image, plot the vector v = (2, 5) starting from the origin (0, 0) and ending at the point (2, 5).

(a) To find the standard matrix A for the linear transformation T, we apply T to the standard basis vectors e1 = (1, 0) and e2 = (0, 1):

T(e1) = T(1, 0) = (-1, 0)
T(e2) = T(0, 1) = (0, -1)

Now, we form the matrix A using these transformed basis vectors as columns:

A = [T(e1) | T(e2)] = [(-1, 0) | (0, -1)] = [ -1  0 ]
                                                [  0 -1 ]

(a) To prove that G has neither self-loops nor anti-parallel edges, we will assume the contrary and show that it leads to a contradiction.

Assume there exists a vertex v in G that has a self-loop, meaning there is an edge (v, v) in G. Since every vertex in G is either a source, a sink, or both, this self-loop implies that v is both a source and a sink. However, this contradicts the assumption that every vertex in G is either a source or a sink, but not both. Therefore, G cannot have self-loops.

Now, assume there exist two vertices u and v in G such that there are anti-parallel edges between them, i.e., both (u, v) and (v, u) are edges in G. Since every vertex in G is either a source, a sink, or both, this implies that u is a source and a sink, and v is also a source and a sink. Again, this contradicts the assumption that every vertex in G is either a source or a sink, but not both. Therefore, G cannot have anti-parallel edges.

Hence, we have proved that G has neither self-loops nor anti-parallel edges.

(b) Let's consider the undirected graph Gu obtained by erasing the direction on the edges of G. We need to prove that Gu has a chromatic number of 1 or 2.

Since every vertex in G is either a source, a sink, or both, it implies that every vertex in Gu has either outgoing edges only, incoming edges only, or both incoming and outgoing edges. Therefore, in Gu, a vertex can be colored with one color if it has either all incoming or all outgoing edges, and with a second color if it has both incoming and outgoing edges.

If Gu has a vertex with all incoming or all outgoing edges, it can be colored with one color. Otherwise, if Gu has a vertex with both incoming and outgoing edges, it can be colored with a second color. This proves that the chromatic number of Gu is either 1 or 2.

Therefore, we have proved that the undirected graph Gu obtained from G has a chromatic number of 1 or 2.

The total profit when a well 50 feet deep is drilled is approximately $1164.10, rounded to two decimal places.

The total profit for drilling a well that is 50 feet deep need to integrate the marginal profit function P'(x) with respect to x from 0 to 50.

This gives us the total profit function P(x):

P(x) = ∫ P'(x) dx from 0 to 50

Substituting P'(x) = [tex]4 \times x^{(1/3)[/tex] into the integral we get:

P(x) = [tex]\int 4 \times x^{(1/3)[/tex] dx from 0 to 50

Integrating with respect to x get:

P(x) = 4/4 * 3/4 * x^(4/3) + C

C is the constant of integration.

The value of C we need to use the given information that the marginal profit is zero when the well is 0 feet deep.

This means that the total profit is also zero when the well is 0 feet deep.

P(0) = 0

= [tex]4/4 \times 3/4 \times 0^{(4/3)} + C[/tex]

C = 0

So the total profit function is:

P(x) = [tex]3x^{(4/3)[/tex]

The profit when a well 50 feet deep is drilled is:

P(50) = [tex]3 \times 50^{(4/3)[/tex] dollars

To prove that the pole of the Simson line must be one of the vertices of the triangle, we will use the following theorem:

Theorem: If the pole of the Simson line lies on the circumcircle of the triangle, then it must be one of the vertices of the triangle.

Proof: Let ABC be a triangle with circumcircle O. Let P be the pole of the Simson line with respect to triangle ABC. We need to show that P must be one of the vertices, say A, of the triangle.

Since P is the pole of the Simson line, it lies on the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of the triangle. Therefore, PA = PB = PC.

Consider the circumcircle of triangle ABC. Since PA = PB = PC, point P lies on the circumcircle of the triangle.

Now, by the Inscribed Angle Theorem, the angle subtended by an arc at the center of the circle is twice the angle subtended by the same arc at any point on the circumference.

Since P lies on the circumcircle, angle APB subtends the same arc as angle ACB at the center of the circle. Thus, angle APB = 2 * angle ACB.

Similarly, angle APC = 2 * angle ABC.

But angle APB + angle APC + angle BPC = 180 degrees (by the angles around a point add up to 360 degrees).

Substituting the above angles, we have 2 * angle ACB + 2 * angle ABC + angle BPC = 180 degrees.

Simplifying, we get angle ACB + angle ABC + angle BPC = 90 degrees.

Since angles ACB and ABC are acute angles, angle BPC must be a right angle. Therefore, P lies on the perpendicular from B to AC.

Similarly, P also lies on the perpendicular from C to AB.

Since P lies on both perpendiculars, it must be the orthocenter of triangle ABC.

Since the orthocenter is the intersection of the altitudes of the triangle, which are concurrent at one of the vertices, P must be one of the vertices of the triangle.

Therefore, the pole of the Simson line must be one of the vertices of the triangle.

The specific heat capacity of the metal can be expressed as the ratio of the product of the specific heat capacity and mass of the surroundings to the mass of the metal which is c = (ms) / m.

The specific heat capacity of a metal can be derived using the heat balance equation for an isolated system, given by equation (14.2), which relates the heat gained or lost by the system to the change in its temperature and its heat capacity.

According to the heat balance equation for an isolated system, the heat gained or lost by the system (Q) is given by:

Q = mcΔTwhere m is the mass of the metal, c is its specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in its temperature.

For an isolated system, the heat gained or lost by the metal must be equal to the heat lost or gained by the surroundings, which can be expressed as:

Q = -q = -msΔT

where q is the heat gained or lost by the surroundings, s is the specific heat capacity of the surroundings, and ΔT is the change in temperature of the surroundings.

Equating the two expressions for Q, we get:

mcΔT = msΔT

Simplifying and rearranging, we get:

The only possible result from a linear regression analysis revealing a strong, negative, linear relationship between x and y is ŷ = 27.4+13.1x, r = -0.95.

When a linear regression analysis reveals a strong, negative, linear relationship between x and y, it means that as x increases, y decreases at a constant rate.

In other words, there is a negative correlation between the two variables.
Out of the five possible results listed, the only one that could possibly be the result of this analysis is:

ŷ = 27.4+13.1x,

r = -0.95.

This is because the equation shows that as x increases, ŷ (the predicted value of y) also increases, but at a negative rate of 13.1.

Additionally,

The correlation coefficient (r) is negative and close to -1, indicating a strong negative correlation between x and y.
The other options cannot be the result of this analysis because they either have positive correlation coefficients (r) or equations that do not show a negative relationship between x and y.

For example,

This equation has a negative slope (-0.25) and a correlation coefficient of -0.85, which indicates a strong negative linear relationship between x and y.

Based on the information provided, the correct answer is ŷ = 27.4+13.1x, r = -0.95. This is because a strong, negative linear relationship between x and y means that as x increases, y decreases and vice versa. The coefficient of determination (r-squared) measures the strength of the relationship between the two variables, and a value of -0.95 indicates a very strong negative relationship. The other answer choices do not fit this criteria, as they either have positive relationships (r values close to 1) or weaker negative relationships (r values close to 0). Therefore, the only possible choice is ŷ = 27.4+13.1x, r = -0.95.

A strong, negative, linear relationship between x and y would be represented by a linear equation with a negative slope and a correlation coefficient (r) close to -1. Among the given options, ỹ = 0.85 - 0.25x, r = -0.85 best represents this relationship.

f1 = 1, f2 = 1, f3 = 2, f4 = 3, f5 = 5, f6 = 8, f7 = 13, f8 = 21, and so on.
Substituting these values, we get:
1*2*5*...*f(2k-1)*f(2k+1) = f(2k+2)
Rearranging the left side:
f(2k)*2*5*...*f(2k-1)*f(2k+1) = f(2k+2)
We know that f(2k) = f(2k+1) - f(2k-1) and f(2k+2) = f(2k+1) + f(2k+1).
Substituting these values, we get:
(f(2k+1) - f(2k-1))*2*5*...*f(2k-1)*f(2k+1) = f(2k+1) + f(2k+1)
Dividing both sides by f(2k+1):
(2*5*...*f(2k-1) - f(2k-1)) = 1
Simplifying:
f(2k+1) = 2*5*...*f(2k-1)
Therefore, f1 f3 ⋯ f2k+1 = f(2k+1) and f2k+2 = f(2k+1) + f(2k+1), so we have:
f1 f3 ⋯ f2k+1 f2k+2 = f(2k+1) + f(2k+1) = 2f(2k+1) = 2(2*5*...*f(2k-1)) = f(2k+2)
This proves that the equation holds for k+1, completing the induction step. Therefore, we can conclude that the equation f1 f3 ⋯ f2n−1 = f2n is true for all positive integers n.

To calculate the price at which the zero-coupon bonds will sell, we can use the formula for present value (PV) of a bond:

[tex]PV = F / (1 + r/n)^(n*t)[/tex]

Where:

PV = Present value or price of the bond

F = Par value of the bond ($1,000)

r = Yield to maturity (YTM) as a decimal (5.43% = 0.0543)

n = Number of compounding periods per year (semiannual, so n = 2)

t = Number of years to maturity (20 years)

Plugging in the values into the formula, we can calculate the price at which the bonds will sell:

PV = 1000 / (1 + 0.0543/2)^(2*20)

= 1000 / (1 + 0.02715)^(40)

= 1000 / (1.02715)^(40)

The line integral simplifies to: ∫(c) xyeyz dy = 18t^6e^(3t^3)

To evaluate the line integral, we need to compute the following expression:

∫(c) xyeyz dy

where c is the curve parameterized by x = 3t, y = 2t^2, z = 3t^3, and t ranges from 0 to 1.

First, we express y and z in terms of t:

y = 2t^2

z = 3t^3

Next, we substitute these expressions into the integrand:

xyeyz = (3t)(2t^2)(e^(3t^3))(3t^3)

Simplifying this expression, we have:

xyeyz = 18t^6e^(3t^3)

Now, we can compute the line integral:

∫(c) xyeyz dy = ∫[0,1] 18t^6e^(3t^3) dy

To solve this integral, we integrate with respect to y, keeping t as a constant:

∫[0,1] 18t^6e^(3t^3) dy = 18t^6e^(3t^3) ∫[0,1] dy

The helium gas will occupy approximately 13.09 L at 40°C and 0.956 atm.

To solve this problem, we can use the combined gas law equation, which states:

(P1 * V1) / (T1) = (P2 * V2) / (T2)

Where:

P1 = Initial pressure

V1 = Initial volume

T1 = Initial temperature (in Kelvin)

P2 = Final pressure

V2 = Final volume (what we need to find)

T2 = Final temperature (in Kelvin)

First, let's convert the temperatures to Kelvin:

Initial temperature T1 = 23°C + 273.15 = 296.15 K

Final temperature T2 = 40°C + 273.15 = 313.15 K

Now, let's substitute the given values into the equation:

(0.956 atm * 12.4 L) / (296.15 K) = (0.956 atm * V2) / (313.15 K)

Now we can solve for V2:

(0.956 atm * 12.4 L * 313.15 K) / (0.956 atm * 296.15 K) = V2

Simplifying the equation, we find:

V2 ≈ 13.09 L

To show that any matrix of rank r can be written as the sum of r matrices of rank 1, we will use the concept of matrix decomposition.

Let's consider an arbitrary matrix A of size m x n with rank r. By definition, the rank of a matrix is the maximum number of linearly independent rows or columns. This means that we can express A as a sum of r matrices of rank 1.

We start by performing the singular value decomposition (SVD) of matrix A:

A = U * Σ * V^T

where U is an m x r matrix, Σ is an r x r diagonal matrix with non-negative singular values on the diagonal, and V^T is the transpose of an r x n matrix V.

We can rewrite the singular value decomposition as:

A = σ1 * u1 * v1^T + σ2 * u2 * v2^T + ... + σr * ur * vr^T

where σ1, σ2, ..., σr are the singular values of A, and u1, u2, ..., ur and v1, v2, ..., vr are the corresponding left and right singular vectors, respectively.

Each term in the above expression is a rank 1 matrix, as it is an outer product of a column vector and a row vector. The rank 1 matrices are of the form x * y^T, where x and y are column vectors.

Thus, we have expressed matrix A as the sum of r matrices of rank 1.

In summary, any matrix of rank r can be written as the sum of r matrices of rank 1, where each term in the sum is a rank 1 matrix obtained from the singular value decomposition of the original matrix.

To write y as the sum of two orthogonal vectors, one in Span fu and one orthogonal to u, we first need to find a vector in Span fu.

Let's call this vector v. Since u is a 1x2 matrix, we can think of it as a vector in R^2. To find v, we need to find a scalar c such that cv = u.

We can do this by solving the equation cv = u for c:

c * [a,b] = [2,-6]

This gives us two equations:

ca = 2

cb = -6

Solving for c, we get:

c = 2/a

c = -6/b

Equating the two expressions for c, we get:

2/a = -6/b

Cross-multiplying, we get:

2b = -6a

Dividing both sides by 2, we get:

b = -3a

So we can choose v = [a,-3a], for any non-zero value of a. For simplicity, let's choose a = 1, so v = [1,-3].

Now we need to find a vector w that is orthogonal to u. The dot product of u and w should be 0:

[u1, u2] · [w1, w2] = u1w1 + u2w2 = 0

We know that u = [2,-6], so we can choose w = [3,1], which is orthogonal to u.

Now we can write y as the sum of two vectors, one in Span fu and one orthogonal to u:

y = (y · v/||v||^2) v + (y · w/||w||^2) w

where · denotes the dot product, ||v|| is the norm of v, and ||w|| is the norm of w.

Plugging in the values, we get:

y = ((41 + 3(-3))/10) [1,-3] + ((43 + 31)/(3^2 + 1^2)) [3,1]

y = (-2/5) [1,-3] + (15/10) [3,1]

y = [-2/51 + 15/103, -2/5*(-3) + 15/10*1]

y = [23/10, 7/10]

So we can write y as the sum of [-6/5, 9/5] (which is in Span fu) and [23/10, 7/10] (which is orthogonal to u).

The answer to the question is that the angular velocity of the kicker's leg at the instant of contact with the ball can be calculated using the formula:

ωf = ωi + αt

Where:
ωi = initial angular velocity (0 rad/s)
α = angular acceleration (200 deg/s^2 converted to rad/s^2 = 3.49 rad/s^2)
t = time (0.4 seconds)
ωf = final angular velocity (what we're solving for)

To solve for ωf, we plug in the values:

ωf = 0 + (3.49 rad/s^2 x 0.4 s)
ωf = 1.396 rad/s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the kicker's leg at the instant of contact with the ball is 1.396 rad/s.


The problem provides us with the time and acceleration of the kicker's leg, but we need to find the angular velocity at the instant of contact with the ball. To do this, we use the formula for angular velocity, ω = Δθ/Δt, where Δθ is the change in angle and Δt is the change in time. However, we don't have the angle information, only the acceleration and time. So, we use the formula for angular acceleration, α = Δω/Δt, to find the change in angular velocity over time. We know that the initial angular velocity is 0 because the kicker's leg is starting from rest. Finally, we solve for the final angular velocity using the equation ωf = ωi + αt.


The problem involves the calculation of angular velocity at the instant of contact between the ball and the kicker's extended leg. The solution involves using the formula for angular acceleration to find the change in angular velocity over time. The problem statement provides us with the time taken for the leg to swing and the acceleration of the leg during that time.

The first step in the solution is to identify the relevant formulae that can be used to calculate the angular velocity of the kicker's leg at the instant of contact with the ball. The formula for angular velocity, ω = Δθ/Δt, involves the change in angle over time. However, we don't have the angle information in the problem statement. So, we use the formula for angular acceleration, α = Δω/Δt, to find the change in angular velocity over time.

The second step in the solution is to identify the values of the parameters in the formulae. The problem statement provides us with the time taken for the leg to swing, which is 0.4 seconds. The problem also provides us with the acceleration of the leg, which is 200 deg/'s². However, we need to convert this to radians per second squared because the formula for angular acceleration requires angular velocity to be in radians per second. We know that 1 revolution is equal to 2π radians. So, 200 deg/'s². is equal to (200/360) x 2π radians/s². = 3.49 rad/s².. The initial angular velocity is 0 because the kicker's leg is starting from rest.

The third step in the solution is to use the formula for angular acceleration to find the change in angular velocity over time. The formula is α = Δω/Δt, which can be rearranged as Δω = αΔt. Substituting the values, we get:

Δω = 3.49 rad/s² x 0.4 s
Δω = 1.396 rad/s

The fourth and final step is to use the formula ωf = ωi + Δω to find the final angular velocity at the instant of contact between the ball and the kicker's extended leg. The initial angular velocity is 0 because the kicker's leg is starting from rest. Substituting the values, we get:

ωf = 0 + 1.396 rad/s
ωf = 1.396 rad/s

Therefore, the angular velocity of the kicker's leg at the instant of contact with the ball is 1.396 rad/s.

The density function of the random variable |X| is f_Y(y) = 1 for 0 ≤ y ≤ 1.

a) Since X is uniformly distributed over (-1,1), the probability density function of X is f(x) = 1/2 for -1 < x < 1, and 0 otherwise. Therefore, the probability of the event {|X| > 1/2} can be computed as follows:

P{|X| > 1/2} = P{X < -1/2 or X > 1/2}

= P{X < -1/2} + P{X > 1/2}

= (1/2)(-1/2 - (-1)) + (1/2)(1 - 1/2)

= 1/4 + 1/4

= 1/2

Therefore, P{|X| > 1/2} = 1/2.

b) To find the density function of the random variable |X|, we can use the transformation method. Let Y = |X|. Then, for y > 0, we have:

F_Y(y) = P{Y ≤ y} = P{|X| ≤ y} = P{-y ≤ X ≤ y}

Since X is uniformly distributed over (-1,1), we have:

F_Y(y) = P{-y ≤ X ≤ y} = (1/2)(y - (-y)) = y

Therefore, the cumulative distribution function of Y is F_Y(y) = y for 0 ≤ y ≤ 1.

To find the density function of Y, we differentiate F_Y(y) with respect to y to obtain:

f_Y(y) = dF_Y(y)/dy = 1 for 0 ≤ y ≤ 1

To evaluate this integral, we first need to find the parameterization of the curve c. We can parameterize c as follows:

r(t) = e^(-t)cos(t)i + e^(-t)sin(t)j, 0 ≤ t ≤ π/2

Then, the length of the curve c is given by:

s = ∫c ds = ∫0^(π/2) ||r'(t)|| dt

||r'(t)|| = ||-e^(-t)sin(t)i + e^(-t)cos(t)j|| = e^(-t)

Therefore, the length of the curve c is:

s = ∫c ds = ∫0^(π/2) e^(-t) dt = 1 - e^(-π/2)

For various values of t (e.g., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2), calculate the corresponding x, y, and z coordinates using the parametric equations. Plot these points on the graph and connect them to form the curve. Add an arrow to indicate the direction in which t increases, which is the direction of the curve as you move from negative to positive t values.

 To sketch the curve with the given vector equation, you can start by plotting points on the coordinate plane. The vector equation r(t) = t2i + t4j + t6k tells us that the x-coordinate is t^2, the y-coordinate is t^4, and the z-coordinate is t^6. You can choose a few values of t, such as -1, 0, and 1, and plug them into the equation to get the corresponding points on the curve.
