Answer:

The coordinates of the intersection of the medians of △ABC is (1/3, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the vertices of △ABC are A(2, 4), B(−4, 0), and C(3, −1).

Intersection of the medians of a triangle is known as centroid.

Formula for centroid of a triangle is

$Centroid=(\dfrac{x_1+x_2+x_3}{3},\dfrac{y_1+y_2+y_3}{3})$

Using the above formula the centroid of △ABC is

$Centroid=(\dfrac{2-4+3}{3},\dfrac{4+0-1}{3})$

$Centroid=(\dfrac{1}{3},\dfrac{3}{3})$

$Centroid=(\dfrac{1}{3},1)$

Therefore the coordinates of the intersection of the medians of △ABC is (1/3, 1).

You can solve for the velocity and position functions by integrating using the fundamental theorem of calculus:

a(t) = 40 ft/s²

v(t) = v (0) + ∫₀ᵗ a(u) du

v(t) = -20 ft/s + ∫₀ᵗ (40 ft/s²) du

v(t) = -20 ft/s + (40 ft/s²) t

s(t) = s (0) + ∫₀ᵗ v(u) du

s(t) = 10 ft + ∫₀ᵗ (-20 ft/s + (40 ft/s²) u ) du

s(t) = 10 ft + (-20 ft/s) t + 1/2 (40 ft/s²) t ²

s(t) = 10 ft - (20 ft/s) t + (20 ft/s²) t ²

Find the volume of the largest rectangular box in the first octant with three faces in the coordinate planes and one vertex in t

makkiz [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$x + 2y + 3z = 12$

$z=\frac{12-x-2y}{3}$

Volume = $V=f(x,y) = xy(\frac{12-x-2y}{3} )$

find partial derivatives using product rule

$f_x =\frac{y}{3} (12-2x-2y)\\f_y = \frac{x}{3} (12-x-4y)$

i.e.

Using maximum for partial derivatives, we equate first partial derivative to 0.

y=0 or x+y =6

x=0 or x+4y =12

Simplify to get y =2, x = 4

thus critical points are (4,2) (6,0) (0,3)

Of these D the II derivative test gives

D<0 only for (4,2)

Hence maximum volume is when x=4, y=2, z= 4/3

Max volume is = 4(2)(4/3) = 32/3
