Answer:
-15
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Definition of absolute value: </u>
<em>Distance from zero on a number line. </em>
<em />
Imagine a number line with 0 in the middle of it. Now mark the number 3 on it. Also mark the <em>opposite </em>of 3, which is -3. What is the <u>distance</u> from zero to those 2 points? it's 3.
This is exactly like saying |3| = 3 and |-3| = 3
Even if the number inside absolute value is negative, it <em><u>simplifies</u></em> to the positive of the same number.
_______________________________
So let's talk about your problem.
-|-15|
> the absolute value simplifies to 15
-|-15| = - 15
So that ends up being your answer.

Hope this helps!!!!!!!
(a) First find the intersections of

and

:

So the area of

is given by

If you're not familiar with the error function

, then you will not be able to find an exact answer. Fortunately, I see this is a question on a calculator based exam, so you can use whatever built-in function you have on your calculator to evaluate the integral. You should get something around 0.5141.
(b) Find the intersections of the line

with

.

So the area of

is given by


which is approximately 1.546.
(c) The easiest method for finding the volume of the solid of revolution is via the disk method. Each cross-section of the solid is a circle with radius perpendicular to the x-axis, determined by the vertical distance from the curve

and the line

, or

. The area of any such circle is

times the square of its radius. Since the curve intersects the axis of revolution at

and

, the volume would be given by
Answer:
D. xy.
Step-by-step explanation:
The GCF of x and x^2 is x and GCF of y and y^2 is y.
Answer is xy.
