    MHB What is the area between two curves given by y=2x^2+10 and y=4x+16?

    One more problem that was giving me issues. Here's how I worked it out: Comments? Corrections?PS. Sorry for flooding the board with my problems. This is the last one for a bit! I have an exam coming up, and was shaky on some concepts. I get so anxious before exams. Can't hurt to ask...

    MHB Approximate Integral Using Midpoint Rule

    Here is a problem I was having difficulty with. Took me forever just to figure out how to solve (because I stink at Calc). Here is my work: Does this look okay? What do you think of the approach?

    MHB Calculus Spotlight Angle Question

    I see it now. Yes, I believe the distance should definitely be along the hypotenuse as well.

    MHB Calculus Spotlight Angle Question

    My tutor sent me a (belated) response to this question. His method yields -9, as opposed to -10. Can you see why one answer should be correct over the other?

    MHB What is the Relationship Between Pressure and Volume in the Ideal Gas Law?

    The ideal gas law states that the pressure P, volume V , and temperature T of a gas are related by PV = NkT where N is the number of molecules of gas, and k is Bolzmann's constant, about 1.38 10^-23 J/K where J is Joules and K is Kelvins. Say that I have 10^24 molecules of gas. The gas...
