ANSWER:

24/5

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

We have the following geometric sequence:

$s=-\frac{3}{5},\frac{6}{5},\frac{-12}{5}$

To know the following term, we must know the common ratio, like this:

$\begin{gathered} r=\frac{-\frac{12}{5}}{\frac{6}{5}}=-2 \\ r=\frac{\frac{6}{5}}{-\frac{3}{5}}=-2 \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the following term should be:

$-\frac{12}{5}\cdot-2=\frac{24}{5}$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ;

Carlos needs 1.7 meters of wire for one project &

0.8 meters of wire for another project

we are to shade the model to represent the total amount of wire Carlos needs .

NOW;

For both projects ; Carlos needs ( 1.7 + 0.8) meters of wire = 2.5 meters of wire

In the attached files below. the first picture shows the diagram attached to the question and the second one shows the shading of the model which represent the total amount of wire Carlos needs.

Use spherical coordinates. evaluate xyz dv e , where e lies between the spheres ρ = 4 and ρ = 6 and above the cone ϕ = π/3.

sergey [27]

Set

$x=\rho\cos\theta\sin\varphi$

$y=\rho\sin\theta\sin\varphi$

$z=\rho\cos\varphi$

so that the volume element is

$\mathrm dV=\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dz=\rho^2\sin\varphi\,\mathrm d\rho\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm d\varphi$

The integral is then

$\displaystyle\iiint_Exyz\,\mathrm dV=\int_{\varphi=0}^{\varphi=\pi/3}\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\int_{\rho=4}^{\rho=6}\rho^5\cos\theta\sin\theta\sin^3\varphi\cos\varphi\,\mathrm d\rho\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm d\rho$

$=\displaystyle\left(\int_0^{\pi/3}\sin^3\varphi\cos\varphi\,\mathrm d\varphi\right)\underbrace{\left(\int_0^{2\pi}\cos\theta\sin\theta\,\mathrm d\theta\right)}_0\left(\int_4^6\rho^5\,\mathrm d\rho\right)$
