The base of a solid in the first quadrant of the xy plane is a right triangle bounded by the coordinate axes and the line x + y

= 2. cross sections of the solid perpendicular to the base are squares. what is the volume, in cubic units, of the solid?

The area of an equilateral triangle of side "s" is s^2*sqrt(3)/4. So the volume of the slices in your problem is 

(x - x^2)^2 * sqrt(3)/4. 

Integrating from x = 0 to x = 1, we have 

[(1/3)x^3 - (1/2)x^4 + (1/5)x^5]*sqrt(3)/4 

= (1/30)*sqrt(3)/4 = sqrt(3)/120 = about 0.0144. 

Since this seems quite small, it makes sense to ask what the base area might be...integral from 0 to 1 of (x - x^2) dx = (1/2) - (1/3) = 1/6. Yes, OK, the max height of the triangles occurs where x - x^2 = 1/4, and most of the triangles are quite a bit shorter...

The sum of two numbers is 49 and the difference between these two numbers is 9. What are these two numbers?​Shown working out pl
8_murik_8 [283]

Let numbers be x and y

ATQ

  • x+y=49---(1)

  • x-y=9---(2)

Adding both

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x=58

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=\dfrac{58}{2}

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=29

Now putting value in eq(2)

\\ \sf\longmapsto x-y=9

\\ \sf\longmapsto 29-9=y

\\ \sf\longmapsto y=20

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

I'm telling you once in my life, I committed mistake and I'M NOT POINT STEALER. put that in mind. You hurt me.

Let's solve for x.

2x+3y=5

Step 1: Add -3y to both sides.

2x+3y+−3y=5+−3y

2x=−3y+5

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

2x

=

(25 points) Ricardo wants to mix 1 part yellow paint to 3 parts blue paint to make a certain shade
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

6 pints of blue

Step-by-step explanation:

note- 8 pints = 1 gallon

Original ratio- 3 parts blue to 1 part yellow ( 3b:1y)

This will make 4 pints if we say that 1 part can be one pint
Ricardo needs 8 pints

Divide the amount needed by how much one portion will make

8/4= 2

Multiply original ratio by 2 to see how many pints of each he’ll need for his new amounts

1y*2= 2 pints yellow paint

3b*2=6 pints of blue paint

So to make 8 pints of green with 3 parts blue to 1 part yellow Ricardo will need 6 pints of blue paint


Let me know if you have any questions and I hope this helps! :)
