Answer:

The answer is \sqrt{\frac{6}{5}}

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the volumen of the solid we solve the next double integral:

\int\limits^1_0\int\limits^1_0 {12xy^{2} } \, dxdy

Solving:

\int\limits^1_0 {12x} \, dx \int\limits^1_0 {y^{2} } \, dy

[6x^{2} ]{{1} \atop {0}} \right. * [\frac{y^{3}}{3}]{{1} \atop {0}} \right.

Replacing the limits:

6*\frac{1}{3} =2

The plane y=mx divides this volume in two equal parts. So volume of one part is 1.

Since m > 1, hence mx ≤ y ≤ 1, 0 ≤ x ≤ \frac{1}{m}

Solving the double integral with these new limits we have:

\int\limits^\frac{1}{m} _0\int\limits^{1}_{mx} {12xy^{2} } \, dxdy

This part is a little bit tricky so let's solve the integral first for dy:

\int\limits^\frac{1}{m}_0 [{12x \frac{y^{3}}{3}}]{{1} \atop {mx}} \right.\, dx =\int\limits^\frac{1}{m}_0 [{4x y^{3 }]{{1} \atop {mx}} \right.\, dx

Replacing the limits:

\int\limits^\frac{1}{m}_0 {4x(1-(mx)^{3} )\, dx =\int\limits^\frac{1}{m}_0 {4x-4x(m^{3} x^{3} )\, dx =\int\limits^\frac{1}{m}_0 ({4x-4m^{3} x^{4}) \, dx

Solving now for dx:

[{\frac{4x^{2}}{2} -\frac{4m^{3} x^{5}}{5} ]{{\frac{1}{m} } \atop {0}} \right. = [{2x^{2} -\frac{4m^{3} x^{5}}{5} ]{{\frac{1}{m} } \atop {0}} \right.

Replacing the limits:

\frac{2}{m^{2} }-\frac{4m^{3}\frac{1}{m^{5}}}{5} =\frac{2}{m^{2} }-\frac{4\frac{1}{m^{2}}}{5} \\ \frac{2}{m^{2} }-\frac{4}{5m^{2} }=\frac{10m^{2}-4m^{2} }{5m^{4}} \\ \frac{6m^{2} }{5m^{4}} =\frac{6}{5m^{2}}

As I mentioned before, this volume is equal to 1, hence:

\frac{6}{5m^{2}}=1\\m^{2} =\frac{6}{5} \\m=\sqrt{\frac{6}{5} }

A rectangle has a length two times the width. Describe how you would find the
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

perimeter = 6w

area = 2w^2

Step-by-step explanation:

we can use the variable w for width, and 2w for length perimeter would be width + width + length + length, or 6w

area is width x length or 2w^2

HURRY PLZ!!!
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

D) no solution

Step-by-step explanation:

1/ (x-2) + 1/(x+2) = 4/(x^2-4)

x cannot equal 2 or -2 since that would make our fractions equal 1/0 or be undefined

Factor the term on the right

1/ (x-2) + 1/(x+2) = 4/(x-2)(x+2)

Multiply both sides by (x-2) (x+2)

(x-2) (x+2) (1/ (x-2) + 1/(x+2)) = 4/(x-2)(x+2)*(x-2) (x+2)

Distribute

x+2 + (x-2) = 4

Combine like terms

2x = 4

Divide by 2

2x/2 = 4/2

x =2

But this is not a possible solution since that is not in the domain

Is 3/4 greater or less than 1/4
Ivahew [28]
3/4 is greater than 1/4! Imagine a cake with four slices in it, would you rather eat one slice out of four or three slices out of four? Three slices out of four is more than just one slice, and the more the cake the better~ Hope this helps! c:
