A North American river otter wants to cross the North Saskatchewan river. It can swim at a speed of 2.75 m/s. In that location, the distance directly across the river is 45.0 m and the current velocity is 2.5 m/s. a) How much time does the otter take to get to the other side, if it points directly across the river?

b) How many metres downstream will the current have carried the otter when it gets to the other side?

c) Calculate the otter's velocity, relative to the bank from where it started.

Which multiplicative property is being illustrated below? (type commutative, associative, or identity) 5 × 2 × 4 = 2 × 5 × 4

Evaluate 8x2 + 9x − 1 2x3 + 3x2 − 2x dx. solution since the degree of the numerator is less than the degree of the denominator, we don't need to divide. we factor the denominator as 2x3 + 3x2 − 2x = x(2x2 + 3x − 2) = x(2x − 1)(x + 2). since the denominator has three distinct linear factors, the partial fraction decomposition of the integrand has the form† 8x2 + 9x − 1 x(2x − 1)(x + 2) = correct: your answer is correct. to determine the values of a, b, and c, we multiply both sides of this equation by the product of the denominators, x(2x − 1)(x + 2), obtaining 8x2 + 9x − 1 = a correct: your answer is correct. (x + 2) + bx(x + 2) + cx(2x − 1).
