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:
Box A = 37.3333333333
Box B = 23.33333333333
Box C = 9.33333333333

Answer:
4.5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
first convert 3/4 to a decimal so you can multiply it which would be .75
so then .75 times 6=
4.5

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to determine the information you're being asked for, you need to complete the square on that quadratic. The first step is to move the constant over to the other side of the equals sign:

Here would be the step where, if the leading coefficient isn't a 1, you'd factor it out. But ours is a 1, so we're good there. Now take half the linear term (the term with the single x on it), square it, and add it to both sides. Our linear term is a -2. Half of -2 is -1, and -1 squared is +1. We add +1 to both sides giving us this:

Now we'll clean it up a bit. The right side becomes a 4, and the left side is written as its perfect square binomial, which is the whole reason we did this. That binomial is
(set equal to the 4 here). Now we'll move the 4 back over and set the whole thing back equal to y:

From this it's apparent what the vertex is: (1, -4),
the axis of symmetry is x = 1, and
the y-intercept is found by setting the x's equal to 0 in the original equation and solving for y. So the y-intercept is (0, -3).
Your choice for the correct answer is the very last one there.
