Show that the line integral is independent of path by finding a function f such that ?f = f. c 2xe?ydx (2y ? x2e?ydy, c is any p

Juli2301 [7.4K]

I'm reading this as

$\displaystyle\int_C2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx+(2y-x^2e^{-y})\,\mathrm dy$

with $\nabla f=(2xe^{-y},2y-x^2e^{-y})$ .

The value of the integral will be independent of the path if we can find a function $f(x,y)$ that satisfies the gradient equation above.

You have

$\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=2xe^{-y}\\\\\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=2y-x^2e^{-y}\end{cases}$

Integrate $\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}$ with respect to $x$ . You get

$\displaystyle\int\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\mathrm dx=\int2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx$
$f=x^2e^{-y}+g(y)$

Differentiate with respect to $y$ . You get

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=\dfrac{\partial}{\partial y}[x^2e^{-y}+g(y)]$
$2y-x^2e^{-y}=-x^2e^{-y}+g'(y)$
$2y=g'(y)$

Integrate both sides with respect to $y$ to arrive at

$\displaystyle\int2y\,\mathrm dy=\int g'(y)\,\mathrm dy$
$y^2=g(y)+C$
$g(y)=y^2+C$

So you have

$f(x,y)=x^2e^{-y}+y^2+C$

The gradient is continuous for all $x,y$ , so the fundamental theorem of calculus applies, and so the value of the integral, regardless of the path taken, is

$\displaystyle\int_C2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx+(2y-x^2e^{-y})\,\mathrm dy=f(4,1)-f(1,0)=\frac9e$

The director of the library believes that 14% of the library's collection is checked out. If the director is right, what is the

Ksivusya [100]

Answer: 0.2643

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the population proportion and $\hat{p}$ be the sample proportion .

As per given question , we have

$p=0.14\\\\ \hat{p}=0.13\\\\ n=478$

z-score : $\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$

$z=\dfrac{0.13-0.14}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.14(1-0.14)}{478}}}\\\\=-0.630087269176\approx-0.63$

The required probability ( using z-table ):-

$P(z$

Hence, the probability that the proportion of books checked out in a sample of 478 books would be less than 13% = 0.2643

Solve for x in the diagram.

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

x = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

x° + 2x° + (x+10)° = 90°

3x° + x° + 10° = 90°

4x° + 10° = 90°

4x° = 90°-10°

4x° = 80°

x = 80/4

x = 20

Ephemeral services corporation (esco) knows that nine other companies besides esco are bidding for a $900,000 government contrac

EastWind [94]

Answer:

c. $100,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation of the expected net profit of Ephemeral services corporation

Since we are been told that 9 other companies besides esco are as well bidding for the $900,000 government contract, it means we have to find the expected net profit by dividing 1 by 9×$900,000 .Thus ESCO can only expect to cover its sunk cost.

Hence ,

E(X) = (1/9) × $900,000

E(X)=0.111111111×$900,000

E(X)= $100,000

Therefore the expected net profit would be $100,000
