Verify that the given vector field h is a gradient. Then calculate the line integral of h over the indicated curve C by finding

f such that the gradient f = h and evaluating f at the end points of C.
h(x,y) = xy^2 i + yx^2 j

r(u) = u i + 2u^2 j

0 ? u ? 1

Please show all the steps so that I will know where i am making a mistake. I have attempted this question 4 times and i do not know where am going wrong. The correct answer is 2. I keep getting 4.

Answer:

f(x,y) = \frac{x^2 y^2}{2}

The value of the line integral is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x,y) = xy^2 i + yx^2 j

Note that if you derivate the first part over the variable y and the second part over the variable x, then in both cases you obtain 2xy, therefore there must be a function f whose gradient is h, because the cross derivates are equal.

In order to find such f, you can calculate a primitive of both expressions, the first one over the variable x and the second one over the variable y.

A general primitive of xy² i (over x) is

f_1(x,y) = \frac{x^2y^2}{2} + a(y)

With a(y) a function that depends only on y. A general primitive of yx² j (over y) is

f_2(x,y) = \frac{x^2y^2}{2} + b(x)

With b(x) only depending on x

The function f(x,y) whose gradient is h is obtained by equaling the expressions of f₁ and f₂. f₁ and f₂ are equal when a(x) = b(x) = 0, therefore

f(x,y) = \frac{x^2y^2}{2}

note that

  • fx(x,y) = xy²
  • fy(x,y) = yx²

As we wanted. Lets find the endpoints of C

r(u) = u i + 2 u² j

r(0) = (0,0)

f(1) = (1,2)

Therefore,

\int\limits_C {xy^2} \, dx + {yx^2} \, dy = f((1,2)) - f((0,0)) = \frac{1^2 * 2^2}{2} - \frac{0^20^2}{0} = \frac{4}{2} - 0 = 2

The value of the line integral over C is 2.

How many solutions does this system have?
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

There can be 0, 1 or infinitely many solutions. 0 if they are parallel and are different lines, 1 if the slopes are different, and infinitely many if they are the same line.

2x - 4y = 8

x + y = 7

Change to y = mx + b

y = (1/2)x - 2

y = -x + 7

The slopes are different so there is 1 solution.

Hope this helps Please mark as brainliest and have a blessed day

10. Congress may override a presidential veto with a ?
Jlenok [28]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

C. Two-thirds vote

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

To help with checks and balances, the consitution allows congress to override a presidential veto with a two-thirds vote; also known as a constitutional majority.

Intial Vote

When Congress first votes on a normal bill (not a consitutional change) all that is required is a simple majority. A simple majority means more than 50 percent.

Presidential Veto

Just because something is passed by Congress does not mean that it will be a law. The President still has to sign the bill into law. However, the President has the option to veto the bill.

Overriding a Veto

If a bill is overridden, Congress can move to override the veto. If they want to override the veto, there must be a 2/3's majority that agrees to pass the bill again.

Additionally, when overriding a veto any votes that are not affirmative, this includes abstentions and absent voters, are considered opposing votes. For example, if 2 congressmen did not show up to vote, then their votes would automatically be counted against the bill.
