<span>The rectangle is 17 meters wide and 31 meters long. To solve this problem, first work out the equation for the length of the rectangle. Using the information given, we find that length (L) is given by L=2W-3. Next we setup the formula for the area of a rectangle, A=(W)(L). We are told that the area is 527 sq. meters, so our equation is 527=(W)(L). We also know that L=2W-3, so we can plug that into the equation for area as well which gives us 527=W(2W-3), which can be written 0=2(W^2)-3W-527. We now need to solve this equation for W. Factoring the left side we get, 0=(W-17)(2W+31). Thus, either (W-17)=0 or (2W+31)=0 must equal zero. Solving these two equations, we get W=17 or W=-15.5. Since we are looking for the width (which is a length), we know it cannot be negative and therefore the width must be 17 meters. Now that we know the width, we can plug W=17 back into the equation for length (L=2W-3). Doing this give us L=2(17)-3 which is equal to 31. Thus the length is 31 meters.</span>

Set up and evaluate the integral that gives the volume of the solid formed by revolving the region bounded by y=x^8 and y = 256
Mkey [24]

Using the shell method, the volume integral would be

\displaystyle 2\pi \int_0^2 x(256-x^8)\,\mathrm dx

That is, each shell has a radius of <em>x</em> (the distance from a given <em>x</em> in the interval [0, 2] to the axis of revolution, <em>x</em> = 0) and a height equal to the difference between the boundary curves <em>y</em> = <em>x</em> ⁸ and <em>y</em> = 256. Each shell contributes an infinitesimal volume of 2<em>π</em> (radius) (height) (thickness), so the total volume of the overall solid would be obtained by integrating over [0, 2].

The volume itself would be

\displaystyle 2\pi \int_0^2 x(256-x^8)\,\mathrm dx = 2\pi \left(128x^2-\frac1{10}x^{10}\right)\bigg|_{x=0}^{x=2} = \boxed{\frac{4096\pi}5}

Using the disk method, the integral for volume would be

\displaystyle \pi \int_0^{256} \left(\sqrt[8]{y}\right)^2\,\mathrm dy = \pi \int_0^{256} \sqrt[4]{y}\,\mathrm dy

where each disk would have a radius of <em>x</em> = ⁸√<em>y</em> (which comes from solving <em>y</em> = <em>x</em> ⁸ for <em>x</em>) and an infinitesimal height, such that each disk contributes an infinitesimal volume of <em>π</em> (radius)² (height). You would end up with the same volume, 4096<em>π</em>/5.

what is the smallest positive integer a such that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a?
liberstina [14]

The smallest positive integer that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3.

What is the intermediate value theorem?

Intermediate value theorem is theorem about all possible y-value in between two known y-value.

x-intercepts

-x^2 + x + 2 = 0

x^2 - x - 2 = 0

(x + 1)(x - 2) = 0

x = -1, x = 2

y intercepts

f(0) = -x^2 + x + 2

f(0) = -0^2 + 0 + 2

f(0) = 2

(Graph attached)

From the graph we know the smallest positive integer value that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3

For proof, the zero exists when x = 2 and f(3) = -4 < 0 and f(0) = 2 > 0.

<em>Your question is not complete, but most probably your full questions was</em>

<em>Given the polynomial f(x)=− x 2 +x+2 , what is the smallest positive integer a such that the Intermediate Value Theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a ?</em>

Thus, the smallest positive integer that the intermediate value theorem guarantees a zero exists between 0 and a is 3.
