Find the centroid of the region bounded by y = 3x^2, y = 0, x = 4

ANTONII [103]3 years ago

To determine the centroid, we use the equations:

x⁻ = 1/A (∫ (x dA)) 
y⁻ = 1/A (∫ (y dA)) 

First, we evaluate the value of A and dA as follows:

A = ∫dA
A = ∫ydx
A = ∫3x^2 dx
A = 3x^3 / 3 from 0 to 4
A = x^3  from 0 to 4
A = 64

We use the equations for the centroid,
x⁻ = 1/A (∫ (x dA)) 
x⁻ =  1/64 (∫ (x (3x^2 dx))) 
x⁻ =  1/64 (∫ (3x^3 dx)
x⁻ =  1/64 (3 x^4 / 4) from 0 to 4
x⁻ =  1/64 (192) = 3

y⁻ = 1/A (∫ (y dA)) 
y⁻ = 1/64 (∫ (3x^2 (3x^2 dx))) 
y⁻ = 1/64 (∫ (9x^4 dx) 
y⁻ = 1/64 (9x^5 / 5) from 0 to 4
y⁻ = 1/64 (9216/5) = 144/5

The centroid of the curve is found at (3, 144/5).

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-10, -8) and
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

Equation: y = -4x + 32

Slope: -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : (-10,-8) and (-8, -16)

Slope Formula:   \frac{y_1 - y_2}{x_1-x_2}

Solve For Slope,  Input Given Points:

  • \frac{-8 - (-16)}{-10 - (-8)}
  • \frac{8}{-2}
  • -4

Solve for y-intercept:

Input the slope into the equation y = mx + b. Plugin x and y values for the x and y variables to find b.

  • y = -4x + b
  • -8 = -10(4) + b
  • -8 = -40 + b
  • b = 32

Equation of LIne: y = -4x + 32

What value in place of the question mark makes the polynomial below a perfect square trinomial x^2+24x+?
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect square trinomials can be written as (a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b². In this case, we know that a = x so we can write this as x² + 2bx + b². Since we know that 2bx = 24x we can conclude that b = 12, so that means b² = 12 * 12 = 144.
