Titus works at a hotel. part of his job is to keep the complimentary pitcher of water at least half full and always with ice. when he starts his shift, the water level shows 4 gallons, or 128 cups of water. as the shift progresses, he records the level of the water every 10 minutes. after 2 hours, he uses a regression calculator to compute an equation for the decrease in water. his equation is w –0.414t + 129.549, where t is the number of minutes and w is the level of water. according to the equation, after about how many minutes would the water level be less than or equal to 64 cups

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).
