The base of a solid in the region bounded by the graphs of y=e^-xy=0, and x=0, and x=1. cross sections of the solid perpendicula

r to the x-axis are semicircles. what is the volume, in cubic units, of the solid?

The diameter of each semicircular cross-section is given by the vertical distance between the curves y=e^{-x} and y=0, which is just e^{-x}.

Given a semicircle with diameter d, its area is \dfrac{\pi d^2}8, so the area of each semicircular section is \dfrac{\pi e^{-2x}}8.

The volume of the solid is obtained by integrating from 0 to 1:

\displaystyle\frac\pi8\int_{x=0}^{x=1}e^{-2x}\,\mathrm dx=\frac{(e^2-1)\pi}{16e^2}

Answer:

  (x, y) = (4, 4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you attempt to solve this by clearing fractions, you end up with an extraneous solution. Here, we'll solve the linear equations ...

  7a +4b = 5/4

  8b -14a = 3/2

where a = 1/(4x+3y) and b = 1/(4x-3y)

Dividing the second equation by 2 and adding the first, we have ...

  (7a +4b) +1/2(8b -14a) = (5/4) +1/2(3/2)

  8b = 8/4

  b = 1/4

Substituting into the first equation gives ...

  7a +4/4 = 5/4

  a = 1/28

__

Now, we can get back to solving for x and y.

  4x +3y = 1/a = 28

  4x -3y = 1/b = 4

  8x = 32 . . . . . . . . . add the two equations

  x = 4

  3y = 28 -4x = 28 -4(4) = 12 . . . . . use x in the equation for 'a'; rearrange

  y = 4 . . . . divide by 3

The solution to the system of equations is (x, y) = (4, 4).

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you graph these equations, you find they describe hyperbolas that intersect at (0, 0) and (4, 4). The "solution" (0, 0) is extraneous, as both equations are undefined there.

Please help! Explain how to solve!
Gnesinka [82]
So this one is a little tricky because in order to solve you need to combine like terms. The only problem is that two fractions don't have the same denominator.
This is what you do.
2/3 - 1/9
= (2*9) - (1*3) / 3*9
= 18 - 3 / 27
= 15/ 27
Simplify.
5/9 + y = 7/9
Now since you need to isolate the variable you have to subtract 5/9 from both sides. Since the denominator is the same you can just subtract the numerator. 
So y = 2/9
I hope this helps love! :)
