The two parabolas intersect for

and so the base of each solid is the set

The side length of each cross section that coincides with B is equal to the vertical distance between the two parabolas,
. But since -2 ≤ x ≤ 2, this reduces to
.
a. Square cross sections will contribute a volume of

where ∆x is the thickness of the section. Then the volume would be

where we take advantage of symmetry in the first line.
b. For a semicircle, the side length we found earlier corresponds to diameter. Each semicircular cross section will contribute a volume of

We end up with the same integral as before except for the leading constant:

Using the result of part (a), the volume is

c. An equilateral triangle with side length s has area √3/4 s², hence the volume of a given section is

and using the result of part (a) again, the volume is

Answer:
The twentieth term is 50.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation that describes the arithmetic sequence describes it's "general term", which means that all the numbers in that sequence must follow that equation. For instance, if we want to find the first term of the sequence we must make a = 1 and we have:
a1 = 3*1 - 10
a1 = -7
Therefore to find the twentieth term we need to make n equal to 20. This is done below:
a20 = 3*20 - 10
a20 = 60 - 10
a20 = 50
The twentieth term is 50.

Answer:
I did this before it is C
Step-by-step explanation:
What is the value of X?
Simplify:
8x - 10 - 4x = - 12(12x - 20)
Simplify both sides:
8x - 10 - 4x = - 12(12x -20)
8x + - 10 + - 4x = (- 12)(12x) + ( -12)(- 20)
(Distribute:)
8x + - 10 + - 4x = 144x 240
(8x + - 4x) + ( -10) = - 144x + 240 (Combine Like Terms:)
4x + - 10 = - 144x + 240
4x - 10 = - 144x + 240
Add - 144x to both sides:
4x - 10 + 144x = - 144x + 240 + 144x
148x - 10 = 240
Add 10 to both sides:
148x - 10 + 10 = 240 + 10
148x = 250
Divide both sides by 148
148x/148 = 250/148
x = 125/74
Answer: x = 125/74 (Decimal: 1.689189)
Hope that helps!!!!
