$Two\ numbers\ are\ x\ and\ x-3 \\ x+x-3=67 \\ 2x-3=67 \\ 2x=70 \\ x=35 \\ \\ 35\ and\ 35-3 \\ \boxed{35\ and\ 32}$

Find the slope of the line that passes through these two points: (- 1, 0) and (4, - 2) .

I am Lyosha [343]

Slope is vertical change over horizontal change. Since coordinates conveniently give both the horizontal and vertical coordinates of a points, we can use the coordinates of both points to differentiate, or find the change horizontally and the change vertically between the two points.

Answer:

7 cm, 4.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The side lengths can be found from the law of cosines. Each triangle has legs 3 cm and 5 cm. The angle between these will be 60° or 120°. Then the two sides of the parallelogram are ...

s = √(a² +b² -2ab·cos(C))

s = √(3² +5² -2·3·5·(±1/2)) = √(34 ±15) = {√49, √19}

The two side lengths are 7 cm and about 4.4 cm.

A sphere of radius r is cut by a plane h units above the equator, where

Anika [276]

Consider the top half of a sphere centered at the origin with radius $r$ , which can be described by the equation

$z=\sqrt{r^2-x^2-y^2}$

and consider a plane

$z=h$

with $0$ . Call the region between the two surfaces $R$ . The volume of $R$ is given by the triple integral

$\displaystyle\iiint_R\mathrm dV=\int_{-\sqrt{r^2-h^2}}^{\sqrt{r^2-h^2}}\int_{-\sqrt{r^2-h^2-x^2}}^{\sqrt{r^2-h^2-x^2}}\int_h^{\sqrt{r^2-x^2-y^2}}\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dx$

Converting to polar coordinates will help make this computation easier. Set

$\begin{cases}x=\rho\cos\theta\sin\varphi\\y=\rho\sin\theta\sin\varphi\\z=\rho\cos\var\phi\end{cases}\implies\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy\,\mathrm dz=\rho^2\sin\varphi\,\mathrm d\rho\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm d\varphi$

Now, the volume can be computed with the integral

$\displaystyle\iiint_R\mathrm dV=\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^{\arctan\frac{\sqrt{r^2-h^2}}h}\int_{h\sec\varphi}^r\rho^2\sin\varphi\,\mathrm d\rho\,\mathrm d\varphi\,\mathrm d\theta$

You should get

$\dfrac{2\pi}3\left(r^3\arctan\dfrac{\sqrt{r^2-h^2}}h-\dfrac{h^3}2\left(\dfrac{r\sqrt{r^2-h^2}}{h^2}+\ln\dfrac{r+\sqrt{r^2-h^2}}h\right)\right)$

Alan bought 20 yards of fencing. He used 5.9 yards in one garden and 10.3 in another. Write remaining as a fraction in simplest

Over [174]

Its 3.8 because if you add 5.9 and 10.3 is 16.2, and if you subtract it by 20, it should equal 3.8.
