(8,9,2 )(3,5,7)(1,3,3)(5,3,2) which does not make up a triangle

Most likely you are expected to recognize that side lengths 2, 3, 5 will result in a "triangle" of zero area (looks like a line segment).

The appropriate choice is
(5, 3, 2)

_____
Some authors write the triangle inequality as a + b ≥ c for any assignment of a, b, c to side lengths. The "or equal to ..." allows the triangle to have zero area (looks like a line segment). Other authors insist the inequality not include the "or equal to" case. It looks like your text's author is in the latter camp.

Let the region R be the area enclosed by the function f(x)=ln(x) and g(x)= 1/2x-2. Find the volume of the solid generated when t

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

$V=61.66$

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by using the expression for the Volume of a solid with the washer method

$V=\pi \int \limit_a^b[R(x)^2-r(x)^2]dx$

where R and r are the functions f and g respectively (f for the upper bound of the region and r for the lower bound).

Before we have to compute the limits of the integral. We can do that by taking f=g, that is

$f(x)=g(x)\\ln(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

there are two point of intersection (that have been calculated with a software program as Wolfram alpha, because there is no way to solve analiticaly)

x1=0.14

x2=8.21

and because the revolution is around y=-5 we have

$R=ln(x)-(-5)\\r=\frac{1}{2}x-2-(-5)\\$
