An estate of $656,000is left to three siblings. The eldest receives 6 times as much as the youngest. The middle sibling receives

$15,000 more than the youngest. How much did each receive?

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the amount the eldest receives, y is the amount the middle receives, and z is the amount the youngest receives, then:

x + y + z = 656000

x = 6z

y = z + 15000

Substituting the last two equations into the first:

(6z) + (z + 15000) + z = 656000

8z + 15000 = 656000

8z = 641000

z = 80125

Solving for the remaining variables:

x = 6z = 480750

y = z + 15000 = 95125

The eldest receives $480,750, the middle receives $95,125 and the youngest receives $80,125.

Evaluate the surface integral S F · dS for the given vector field F and the oriented surface S. In other words, find the flux of
tresset_1 [31]

Because I've gone ahead with trying to parameterize S directly and learned the hard way that the resulting integral is large and annoying to work with, I'll propose a less direct approach.

Rather than compute the surface integral over S straight away, let's close off the hemisphere with the disk D of radius 9 centered at the origin and coincident with the plane y=0. Then by the divergence theorem, since the region S\cup D is closed, we have

\displaystyle\iint_{S\cup D}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\iiint_R(\nabla\cdot\vec F)\,\mathrm dV

where R is the interior of S\cup D. \vec F has divergence

\nabla\cdot\vec F(x,y,z)=\dfrac{\partial(xz)}{\partial x}+\dfrac{\partial(x)}{\partial y}+\dfrac{\partial(y)}{\partial z}=z

so the flux over the closed region is

\displaystyle\iiint_Rz\,\mathrm dV=\int_0^\pi\int_0^\pi\int_0^9\rho^3\cos\varphi\sin\varphi\,\mathrm d\rho\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm d\varphi=0

The total flux over the closed surface is equal to the flux over its component surfaces, so we have

\displaystyle\iint_{S\cup D}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\iint_S\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S+\iint_D\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=0

\implies\boxed{\displaystyle\iint_S\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=-\iint_D\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S}

Parameterize D by

\vec s(u,v)=u\cos v\,\vec\imath+u\sin v\,\vec k

with 0\le u\le9 and 0\le v\le2\pi. Take the normal vector to D to be

\vec s_u\times\vec s_v=-u\,\vec\jmath

Then the flux of \vec F across S is

\displaystyle\iint_D\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^9\vec F(x(u,v),y(u,v),z(u,v))\cdot(\vec s_u\times\vec s_v)\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv

=\displaystyle\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^9(u^2\cos v\sin v\,\vec\imath+u\cos v\,\vec\jmath)\cdot(-u\,\vec\jmath)\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv

=\displaystyle-\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^9u^2\cos v\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=0

\implies\displaystyle\iint_S\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\boxed{0}

Given m ZLMN = 145°, what is m ZXMN?<br> Show all relevant work.
myrzilka [38]
80 degrees. 145 = (4x+5) + (6x-10) = 10x-5... so 10x = 150, x = 15. LMN = 6x-10 = 6(15) - 10 = 80.
