The answer is B.

The mean is the average so, in this case, the average age of the voters. To get the average the person must take 100 random people who voted, as taking any others will not give them the average age.

3 regions are defined in the figure find the volume generated by rotating the given region about the specific line

anastassius [24]

The volume generated by rotating the given region $R_{3}$ about OC is $\frac{4}{g} \pi$

<h3>Washer method</h3>

Because the given region ( $R_{3}$ ) has a look like a washer, we will apply the washer method to find the volume generated by rotating the given region about the specific line.

solution

We first find the value of x and y

$y=2(x)^{\frac{1}{4} }$

$x=(\frac{y}{2} )^{4}$

$y=2x$

$x=\frac{y}{2}$

$\int\limits^a_b {\pi } \, (R_{o^{2} } - R_{i^{2} } ) dy$

$R_{o} = x = \frac{y}{2}$

$R_{i} = x= (\frac{y}{2}) ^{4}$

$a=0, b=2$

$v= \int\limits^2_o {\pi } \, [(\frac{y}{2})^{2} - ((\frac{y}{2}) ^{4} )^{2} ) dy$

$v= \pi \int\limits^2_o= [\frac{y^{2} }{4} - \frac{y^{8} }{2^{8} }} ] dy$

$v= \pi [\int\limits^2_o {\frac{y^{2} }{4} } \, dy - \int\limits^2_o {\frac{y}{2^{8} } ^{8} } \, dy ]$

$v=\pi [\frac{1}{4} \frac{y^{3} }{3} \int\limits^2_0 - \frac{1}{2^{8} } \frac{y^{g} }{g} \int\limits^2_o\\v= \pi [\frac{1}{12} (2^{3} -0)-\frac{1}{2^{8}*9 } (2^{g} -0)]\\v= \pi [\frac{2}{3} -\frac{2}{g} ]\\v= \frac{4}{g} \pi$

Find the slope please

zavuch27 [327]

Hi student, let me help you out! :)

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

We are asked to find the slope of this graph; we are provided with two points:

$\star~\mathrm{(6,0)}$

$\star~\mathrm{(0,-5)}$

$\triangle~\fbox{\bf{KEY:}}$

What we need in order to find the slope are two points and the slope formula.

Here's the formula:

$\star~\boxed{\mathrm{\cfrac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}}}$

Where

y2 and y1 are y-coordinates

x2 and x1 are x-coordinates

Substitute the values:

$\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{-5-0}{0-6}}}$

Simplify!

$\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{-5}{-6}}}$

Simplify more!

$\star~\mathrm{\cfrac{5}{6}}$

Hope it helps you out! :D
