Determine whether or not F is a conservative vector field. If it is, find a function f such that F = ∇f. (If the vector field is

kodGreya [7K]

We're looking for a scalar function $f(x,y)$ such that $\nabla f(x,y)=\vec F(x,y)$ . That is,

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=2x-6y$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=-6x+6y-7$

Integrate the first equation with respect to $x$ :

$f(x,y)=x^2-6xy+g(y)$

Differentiate with respect to $y$ :

$-6x+6y-7=-6x+\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}=6y-7$

Integrate with respect to $y$ :

$g(y)=3y^2-7y+C$

So $\vec F$ is indeed conservative with the scalar potential function

$f(x,y)=x^2-6xy+3y^2-7y+C$

where $C$ is an arbitrary constant.

A statue is mounted on top of a 21 foot hill. From the base of the hill to where you are standing is 57feet and the statue subte

AleksandrR [38]

Please find the attached diagram for a better understanding of the question.

As we can see from the diagram,

RQ = 21 feet = height of the hill

PQ = 57 feet = Distance between you and the base of the hill

SR= h=height of the statue

$\angle SPR$ =Angle subtended by the statue to where you are standing.

$\angle x=\angle RPQ$ = which is unknown.

Let us begin solving now. The first step is to find the angle $\angle x$ which can be found by using the following trigonometric ratio in $\Delta PQR$ :

$tan(x)=\frac{RQ}{PQ} =\frac{21}{57}$

Which gives $\angle x$ to be:

$\angle x=tan^{-1}(\frac{21}{57})\approx20.22^{0}$

Now, we know that $\angle x$ and $\angle SPR$ can be added to give us the complete angle $\angle SPQ$ in the right triangle $\Delta SPQ$ .

We can again use the tan trigonometric ratio in $\Delta SPQ$ to solve for the height of the statue, h.

This can be done as:

$tan(\angle SPQ)=\frac{SQ}{PQ}$

$tan(7.1^0+20.22^0)=\frac{SR+RQ}{PQ}$

$tan(27.32^0)=\frac{h+21}{57}$

$\therefore h+21=57tan(27.32^0)$

$h\approx8.45 ft$

Thus, the height of the statue is approximately, 8.45 feet.

Marisa's car gets an average of 28 miles per gallon of gas. She plans to drive 200 miles today and 220 miles tomorrow. How many

nadezda [96]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the total of miles Marisa is going to drive; 200 + 220 = 420

Next, divide the total miles by the average miles Marisa can travel on one gallon of gas; 420 / 28 = 15

(Hope this helps!)
