Answer:

4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The midpoint segment has length ...

... L = AB/2 + BC + CD/2 = 16 cm

The entire segment has length ...

... AD = AB + BC + CD = 28 cm

If we subtract AD from 2L, we have ...

... 2L - AD - 2L = 2(AB/2 +BC + CD/2) - (AB +BC +CD) = 2(16 cm) -28 cm = 4 cm

... AB +2BC + CD -AB -BC -CD = 4 cm . . . . remove parentheses

... BC = 4 cm . . . . simplify

The product of three consecutive integers is 3360. What is the sum of the three integers?
Tom [10]

Step-by-step explanation:

let the integer be x .

three consecutive integers : x, x+1, x+2.

according to the problem,.

Let the first of the 3 consecutive numbers be X.

Therefore the second number is (X + 1)

The third number is therefore (X + 2)

The product of the 3 consecutive numbers is:

( X )( X + 1 )( X + 2 ) = 3360 Equation( 1 )

Expanding Equation ( 1 ) gives

X³ + 3X² + 2X - 3360 = 0 Equation (2)

Solve Equation (2 ) which gives the following values for X

X1 = 14

X2 = - 8.5 + i (12.951834)

X3 = - 8.5 - i (12.951834).

the numbers are 14,15,16.

sum is 14+15+16 = 45.

hope this helps you.

What is the measure of angle A in the triangle?<br> Enter your answer in the box.<br> mZA=
stepladder [879]

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle add to 180 degrees

A + B + C = 180

2x-10 + 70+ x+30 = 180

Combine like terms

3x +90 = 180

Subtract 90 from each side

3x+90-90=180-90

3x= 90

Divide by 3

3x/3= 90/3

x=30

We want to find angle A

A = 2x-10

   =2*30 -10

  =60-10

  50

Evaluate the surface integral. s x2 + y2 + z2 ds s is the part of the cylinder x2 + y2 = 4 that lies between the planes z = 0 an
Leya [2.2K]
Parameterize the lateral face T_1 of the cylinder by

\mathbf r_1(u,v)=(x(u,v),y(u,v),z(u,v))=(2\cos u,2\sin u,v

where 0\le u\le2\pi and 0\le v\le3, and parameterize the disks T_2,T_3 as

\mathbf r_2(r,\theta)=(x(r,\theta),y(r,\theta),z(r,\theta))=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta,0)
\mathbf r_3(r,\theta)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta,3)

where 0\le r\le2 and 0\le\theta\le2\pi.

The integral along the surface of the cylinder (with outward/positive orientation) is then

\displaystyle\iint_S(x^2+y^2+z^2)\,\mathrm dS=\left\{\iint_{T_1}+\iint_{T_2}+\iint_{T_3}\right\}(x^2+y^2+z^2)\,\mathrm dS
=\displaystyle\int_{u=0}^{u=2\pi}\int_{v=0}^{v=3}((2\cos u)^2+(2\sin u)^2+v^2)\left\|{{\mathbf r}_1}_u\times{{\mathbf r}_2}_v\right\|\,\mathrm dv\,\mathrm du+\int_{r=0}^{r=2}\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}((r\cos\theta)^2+(r\sin\theta)^2+0^2)\left\|{{\mathbf r}_2}_r\times{{\mathbf r}_2}_\theta\right\|\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm dr+\int_{r=0}^{r=2}\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}((r\cos\theta)^2+(r\sin\theta)^2+3^2)\left\|{{\mathbf r}_3}_r\times{{\mathbf r}_3}_\theta\right\|\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm dr
=\displaystyle2\int_{u=0}^{u=2\pi}\int_{v=0}^{v=3}(v^2+4)\,\mathrm dv\,\mathrm du+\int_{r=0}^{r=2}\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}r^3\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm dr+\int_{r=0}^{r=2}\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}r(r^2+9)\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm dr
=\displaystyle4\pi\int_{v=0}^{v=3}(v^2+4)\,\mathrm dv+2\pi\int_{r=0}^{r=2}r^3\,\mathrm dr+2\pi\int_{r=0}^{r=2}r(r^2+9)\,\mathrm dr
