Answer: a²+b² = -99/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given two equations, this equations will be solved simultaneously to get a² and b²

a³ - 3ab² = 47 ... 1

b³ - 3a² b = 52... 2

From 1, a(a² - 3b²) = 47...3

From 2, b(b² - 3a²) = 52... 4

Adding 3 and 4, we have;

a²+b²-3b²-3a² = 99 (note that a and b will no longer be part of the equations as they have been factored out)

a²+b²-(3b²+3a²) = 99

(a²+b²) -3(b²+a²)= 99

Taking the difference we have

- 2(a²+b²) = 99

a²+b² = -99/2

Compute the differential of surface area for the surface S described by the given parametrization.

AysviL [449]

With $S$ parameterized by

$\vec r(u,v)=\langle e^u\cos v,e^u\sin v,uv\rangle$

the surface element $\mathrm dS$ is

$\mathrm dS=\left\|\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial u}\times\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial v}\right\|\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv$

We have

$\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial u}=\langle e^u\cos v,e^u\sin v,v\rangle$

$\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial v}=\langle -e^u\sin v,e^u\cos v,u\rangle$

with cross product

$\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial u}\times\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial v}=\langle ue^u\sin v-ve^u\cos v,-ve^u\sin v-ue^u\cos v,e^{2u}\cos^2v+e^{2u}\sin^2v\rangle$

$\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial u}\times\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial v}=\langle e^u(u\sin v-v\cos v),-e^u(v\sin v+u\cos v),e^{2u}\rangle$

with magnitude

$\left\|\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial u}\times\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial v}\right\|=\sqrt{e^{2u}(u\sin v-v\cos v)^2+e^{2u}(v\sin v+u\cos v)^2+e^{4u}}$

$\left\|\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial u}\times\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial v}\right\|=e^u\sqrt{u^2+v^2+e^{2u}}$

So we have

$\mathrm dS=\boxed{e^u\sqrt{u^2+v^2+e^{2u}}\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv}$
