Answer:

The cost of paint = $19.50¢

The cost of sketchbook = $9.75¢

The cost of the brush = $3.25¢

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us denote the price or cost of the paint set by k. According to the question, the sketchbook costs 1/2 the cost of the paint.

This means that the sketchbook's cost is =

1/2 × k = k/2

Again, the brush was 1/3 as much as the sketchbook. This means that the brush's cost=

1/3 of k/2 = 1/3 × k/2 = k/6 (The cost of a brush)

The total cost of the items purchased is =

k+(k/2)+(k/6).... Using LCM to find a common denominator= (6k+3k+k)/6 = 10k/6 = 5k/3

We were told that $37 was taken to the store and after the purchase of these items, Paul had a balance of $4.50.

This means that:

$37 - (5k/3) = $4.50

Using LCM to find a common denominator for the left side of the equation:

(111-5k)/3 = 4.50

111-5k = 13.50

5k = 111-13.50

5k = 97.50

k = $19.50¢

Therefore, the cost of the paint set is $19.50¢

The cost of the sketchbook will now be half of the cost of the paint = 1/2 of 19.50 = 1/2 × 19.50 = $9.75¢

The cost of the brush will now be a third of the cost of the sketchbook

= 1/3 of 9.75 = 1/3 × 9.75 = $3.25¢

F ind the volume under the paraboloid z=9(x2+y2) above the triangle on xy-plane enclosed by the lines x=0, y=2, y=x
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

The answer is 48 units³

Step-by-step explanation:

If we simply draw out the region on the x-y plane enclosed between these lines we realize that,if we evaluate the integral the limits all in all cannot be constants since one side of the triangular region is slanted whose equation is given by y=x. So the one of the limit of one of the integrals in the double integral we need to evaluate must be a variable. We choose x part of the integral to have a variable limit, we could well have chosen y's limits as non constant, but it wouldn't make any difference. So the double integral we need to evaluate is given by,

V=\int\limits^2_0 {} \, \int\limits^{x=y}_0 {z} \, dx dy\\V=\int\limits^2_0 {} \, \int\limits^{x=y}_0 {9(x^{2}+y^{2})} \, dx dy

Please note that the order of integration is very important here.We cannot evaluate an integral with variable limit last, we have to evaluate it first.after performing the elementary x integral we get,

V=9\int\limits^2_0 {4y^{3}/3} \, dy

After performing the elementary y integral we obtain the desired volume as below,

V= 48 units^{3}
