X^2-4x-32=0

(x+a)(x+b)

x^2-(a+b)x+ab

a+b=4
ab=-32

a=-b+4
(-b+4)b=-32

-b^2+4b=-32
b^2-4b-32=0
b=8,-4

If b=8, a=-4
If b=-4, a= 8

Plug in a and b to (x+a)(x+b)
x= -4, 8

Find the volumes of the solids generated by revolving the triangle with vertices (2, 2), (2, 6), and (5, 6) about a) the x-a

About the $x$ -axis (washer method):

$\displaystyle\pi\int_2^5\left(6^2-\left(\frac43x-\frac23\right)^2\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{16\pi}9\int_2^5(20+x-x^2)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{56\pi}$

About the $y$ -axis (shell method):

$\displaystyle2\pi\int_2^5x\left(6-\left(\frac43x-\frac23\right)\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{8\pi}3\int_2^5x(5-x)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{36\pi}$

About $x=7$ (shell method):

$\displaystyle2\pi\int_2^5(7-x)\left(6-\left(\frac43x-\frac23\right)\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{8\pi}3\int_2^5(35-12x+x^2)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{48\pi}$

About $y=2$ (washer method):

$\displaystyle\pi\int_2^5\left((6-2)^2-\left(\frac43x-\frac23-2\right)^2\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{16\pi}9\int_2^5(5+4x-x^2)\,\mathrm dx=\boxed{32\pi}$

Tickets for a concert were \$5$5dollar sign, 5 for each child and \$8$8dollar sign, 8 for each adult. At one of the concerts, ea

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of children that attended the concert.

Let a represent the number of adults that attended the concert.

At one of the concerts, each adult brought 4 children with them, and 10 children attended without an adult. This means that the number of children that attended is

c = 4a + 10

Tickets for a concert were $5 for each child and $8 for each adult. The total ticket sales were $1730. It means that

5c + 8a = 1730

Therefore, the systems of equations that can be solved to determine the number of children, c, and adults that attended the concert is

c = 4a + 10

5c + 8a = 1730
