A bucket that weighs 5 lb and a rope of negligible weight are used to draw water from a well that is 60 ft deep. The bucket is f

illed with 42 lb of water and is pulled up at a rate of 1.5 ft/s, but water leaks out of a hole in the bucket at a rate of 0.15 lb/s. Find the work done in pulling the bucket to the top of the well. Show how to approximate the required work by a Riemann sum. (Let x be the height in feet above the bottom of the well. Enter xi* as xi.) lim n→[infinity] n Δx i = 1 Express the work as an integral. 0 dx Evaluate the integral. ft-lb

Answer:

The value is W= 2640 \  ft \cdot lb

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The weight of the bucket is F =  5 lb

The depth of the well is x_1 =  60 \ ft

The weight of the water is W_w  =  42 lb

The rate at which the bucket with water is pulled is v  = 1.5 \  ft/s

The rate of the leak is r = 0.15 lb/s

Generally the workdone is mathematically represented as

W =  \int\limits^{x_1}_{x_o} {G(x)} \, dx]

Here G(x) is a function defining the weight of the system (water and bucket ) and it is mathematically represented as

G(x) =  F  +  (W_w- Ix)

Here I is the rate of water loss in lb/ft mathematically represented as

I  = \frac{r}{v}

=> I  = \frac{0.15 }{1.5 }

=> I  = 0.1

So

G(x) =  5  +  (42- 0.1x)

=> G(x) =  47- 0.1x)

So

W =  \int\limits^{60}_{0} {47- 0.1x} \, dx]

=> W =  [47x - \frac{0.1x^2}{2} ]|\left 60} \atop {0}} \right.

=> W= [47(60) - 0.05(60)^2]

=> W= 2640 \  ft \cdot lb

Help. Please. Thank You.

Answer:

(A)\ a=-6;b=4\\\\ (B)\ a=6;b=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+c

Where "m" is the slope and "c" is the y-intercept.

By definition:

1. If the lines of the System of equations are parallel (whrn they have the same slope), the system has No solutions.

2. If the they are the same exact line, the System of equations has Infinite solutions.

(A) Let's solve for "y" from the first equation:

3x-2y=-1\\\\-2y=-3x-1\\\\y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}

You can notice that:

m=\frac{3}{2}\\\\c=\frac{1}{2}

In order make that the System has No solutions, the slopes must be the same, but the y-intercept must not. Then, the values of "a" and "b" can be:

a=-6\\\\b=4

Substituting those values into the second equation and solving for "y", you get:

-6x+4y=-2\\\\4y=6x-2\\\\y=\frac{6}{4}x-{2}{4}\\\\y=\frac{3}{2}x-\frac{1}{2}

You can idenfity that:

m=\frac{3}{2}\\\\c=-\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, they are parallel.

(B) In order make that the System has Infinite solutions, the slopes and the y-intercepts of both equations must be the same. Then, the values of "a" and "b" can be:

a=6\\\\b=-4

If you substitute those values into the second equation and then you solve for "y", you get:

6x+(-4y)=-2\\\\-4y=-6x-2\\\\y=\frac{-6}{-4}x-\frac{2}{-4}\\\\y=\frac{3}{2}x+\frac{1}{2}

You can identify that:

m=\frac{3}{2}\\\\b=\frac{1}{2}

Therefore, they are the same line.
