Using proportions, the correct representation of that time period is of 4.47 minutes.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

We have that one minute has 60 seconds, hence the proportion that the 28 seconds correspond of a minute is:

28/60 = 0.47 min.

Hence the correct representation of that time period is of 4.47 minutes.

Find the volume of the solid under the surface z = 5x + 9y 2 and above the region bounded by x = y 2 and x = y 3.

Yanka [14]

Call the region in the $x$ - $y$ plane, bounded by $x=y^2$ and $x=y^3$ , $\mathcal D$ . Then the volume under the given surface is

$\displaystyle\iint_{\mathcal D}(5x+9y)\,\mathrm dA=\int_{y=0}^{y=1}\int_{x=y^3}^{x=y^2}(5x+9y)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\frac{83}{140}$

What is the value of a?

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Actually, the answer is not A, if you're saying A is the first choice above. That's incorrect. You will need to use the Geometric mean for right triangles here to figure out what the value of a is. We will use this form: $\frac{YZ}{WZ} = \frac{WZ}{XZ}$ . We have a value for YZ of 3; side a is XZ. That means in order to solve this we need WZ, which we can find using pythagorean's theorem. 3^2 + 4^2 = c^2 and 9 + 16 = c^2 and c = 5. Now we fill in accordingly: $\frac{3}{5}= \frac{5}{XZ}$ . Cross-multiply to get 3XZ=25 and side XZ is $\frac{25}{3}$ . XZ is 25/3 and YZ is 3, so 25/3 - 3 = XY. That means that XY (side a) = 16/3 or 5 1/3, choice B, or the second one down.
