The base of a solid is bounded by x^2 + y^2 = 16. Cross sections perpendicular to the x-axis are right isosceles triangles with

one leg located in the base. Which definite integral represents the volume of this solid?

The equation for the base is that of a circle, so the cross sections will have a leg of length equal to the vertical distance between its halves.

x² + y² = 16   ⇒   y = ±√(16 - x²)

⇒   length = √(16 - x²) - (-√(16 - x²)) = 2 √(16 - x²)

Cross sections with thickness ∆x have a volume of

1/2 length² ∆x = 1/2 (2 √(16 - x²))² ∆x = (32 - 2x²) ∆x

since they are isosceles triangles and so their bases and heights are equal.

Then the total volume would be (D)

\displaystyle \int_{-4}^4 \frac12 \left(2 \sqrt{16-x^2}\right)^2 \, dx

PLEASE HELP precal!

Check the picture below

so.. .hmmm the vertex is at the origin... and we know the parabola passes through those two points... let's use either.. say hmmm 100,-50, to get the coefficient "a"

keep in mind that, the parabolic dome is vertical, thus we use the y = a(x-h)²+k  version for parabolas, which is a vertical parabola

as opposed to x = (y-k)²+h, anyway, let's find "a"

\bf y=a(x-0)^2+0\implies y=ax^2\qquad 
\begin{cases}
x=100\\
y=-50
\end{cases}\implies -50=a100^2
\\\\\\
\cfrac{-50}{100^2}=a\implies -\cfrac{1}{200}=a
\\\\\\
thus\qquad \qquad y=-\cfrac{1}{200}x^2\implies \boxed{y=-\cfrac{x^2}{200}}

now.. .your choices, show.... a constant on the end.... a constant at the end, is just a vertical shift from the parent equation, the equation we've got above.. is just the parent equation, since we used the origin as the vertex, it has a vertical shift of 0, and thus no constant, but is basically, the same parabola, the one in the choices is just a shifted version, is all.

Jayden earned some money doing odd jobs last summer and put it in a savings account that earns 12% interest compounded monthly.
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

$220.18

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount A(n) accrued for P dollars saved at r% annual interest for a period of n years compounded k times is derived using the formula:

A(n)=P \left(1+\dfrac{r}{k}\right)^{nk}

In Jayden's case:

  • A(n)=$400
  • r=12%=0.12
  • n=5 years
  • k=12 Months

We want to determine the amount Jayden put in the savings account.

400=P \left(1+\dfrac{0.12}{12}\right)^{12*5}\\400=P \left(1+0.01}\right)^{60}\\400=P \left(1.01}\right)^{60}\\P=\dfrac{400}{\left(1.01}\right)^{60}}\\

P=\$220.18

Jayden earned $220.18 from doing odd jobs.

LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

$20

Step-by-step explanation:

15/3=5 which means that for every guest attending Carla's retirement party it must cost her $5 each.

Therefore if 4 guests come to the party it must mean 4(5) which is 20.

Hence $20
