Use the general slicing method to find the volume of the solid whose base is the triangle with vertices (0,0), (7,0), and (0,7)

and whose cross sections perpendicular to the base and parallel to the y-axis are semicircles.
(need exact answer in terms of pi)

please explain. The answer I was getting was 49pi/8, but my homework says that is wrong.

Figure is attached below:

Answer:

100.04\pi

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given Data:</u>

triangle vertices= A,B,C=(0,0), (7,0), (0,7)

<u>Required: Find Volume of the solid=V=?</u>

For this type of question we need to use the following formula of slicing method

\int\limits^a_bA {(x)} \, dx................Eq(1)

where a and b are limits which shows that solid extends from x=a\ to\ x=b with the known cross section area  A(x)  perpendicular to x-axis.

From the Figure.2 we can see that limits are from x=0 to x=7 and the red line is the diameter of the given semi circle.

We can see that if x increases then the diameter decreases along the hypotenuse thus diameter of the semi circle=d= 7-x

Radius is half of the diameter, so Radius of semi circle=r=\frac{7-x}{2}

Here, Area A(x) is the area of the semi circle

so A(x)=\frac{1}{2}(\pi ) r^{2}

Putting values, we get

A(x)=\frac{1}{2}(\pi ) (\frac{7-x}{2}) ^{2}

Putting values in Eq(1), we get

V=\int\limits^7_0 {\frac{1}{2}(\pi ) (\frac{7-x}{2}) ^{2}} \, dx

V=\frac{\pi }{2}\int\limits^0_7 {(\frac{7-x}{2} )^{2} } \, dx

V=\frac{\pi }{2}\int\limits^0_7 {(\frac{49+x^{2} -2(7)(x)}{4} ) } \, dx expanding formula ((a+b)^{2}=a^{2}+b^{2}+2ab)

V=\frac{\pi }{8}\int\limits^7_0 ({49+x^{2} -14x)} \, dx

V=\frac{\pi }{8}(\int\limits^7_0 {49} \, dx+\int\limits^7_0 {x^{2} } \, dx  +\int\limits^7_0 {14x} \, dx )

V=\frac{\pi }{8}(49x+\frac{x^3}{3}+\frac{14x^2}{2}) (for\ x=0\ to\ 7)

Putting x=0 we get everything zero that's why only have expression for value of x=7 as:

V=\frac{\pi }{8}(49*7+\frac{7^{3}}{3}+14*\frac{7^2}{2}   )

V=\frac{\pi }{8}(343+114.33+343)

V=\frac{\pi }{8}(800.33)\\\\ V=100.04\pi }

Answer:

(-2, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The x coordinates are -1 and -3 and the y coordinates are 4 and -2.

So the midpoint is (-1 + -3)/2,  ( 4 + -2) / 2

=  (-4/2, 2/2)

= (-2, 1).

3. The diameter of the large bird bath is 6 feet. The CGJ girls plan to put bird perches around the outside edge of the bath suc
Leokris [45]
First we need to determine the circumference of the bath.

Circumference = Diameter X pi 

6(pi) = 18.84 feet

and the girls want to put perches that are at least 3 feet between each other so you can just divide the circumference by 3 

18.84 / 3 = 6.28 so 6

If you don't understand the concept then think of it like this, if you have in total 18.84 feet and you want to place something down every 3 feet then start subtracting 3 from your total till you can't add anymore perches. 

18 - 3 = 15
15 - 3 = 12
12 - 3 = 9
9 - 3 = 6
6 - 3 = 3
3 - 3 = 0

We subtracted 3, SIX times so we added 6 perches
