Answer:

$x=11$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The Midpoint Theorem states that the segment joining two sides of a triangle at the midpoints of those sides is parallel to the third side and is half the length of the third side.

In this problem

$(x+5)=\frac{1}{2}(3x-1)$

solve for x

Multiply by 2 both sides

$2x+10=3x-1$

subtract 2x both sides

$10=3x-1-2x$

$10=x-1$

Adds 1 both sides

$x=11$

Answer:

17m³

Step-by-step explanation:

==>Given:

Prism with right triangular base with the following dimensions:

Height = 17m

Base area = area of the right triangle = ½×2×1 = 1m²

==>Required:

Volume of prism

==>Solution:

Volume of prism = Base area × height of prism

Volume of prism = 1m² × 17m

Volume = 17m³

Find a potential function for F or determine that F is not conservative. (If F is not conservative, enter NOT CONSERVATIVE.) F =

xxMikexx [17]

For $F$ to be conservative, we need to have

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=\cos z$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=10y$

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=-x\sin z$

Integrate the first PDE with respect to $x$ :

$\displaystyle\int\frac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\mathrm dx+\int\cos z\,\mathrm dx\implies f(x,y,z)=x\cos z+g(y,z)$

Differentiate with respect to $y$ :

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=10y=\dfrac{\partial g}{\partial y}\implies g(y,z)=5y^2+h(z)$

Now differentiate $f$ with respect to $z$ :

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial z}=-x\sin z=-x\sin z+\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dz}=0\implies h(z)=C$

So we have

$f(x,y,z)=x\cos z+5y^2+C$

so $F$ is indeed conservative.
