<span>(n take 2) minus n = 189 
n(n-3)/2 = 189 
n(n-3) = 378 
n^2-3n-378 = 0 
n=21

Hi! I need help with the attached question in calc. Thank you:)
Elena L [17]

Answer:

3π square units.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the disk method.

Since we are revolving around AB, we have a vertical axis of revolution.

So, our representative rectangle will be horizontal.

R₁ is bounded by y = 9x.

So, x = y/9.

Our radius since our axis is AB will be 1 - x or 1 - y/9.

And we are integrating from y = 0 to y = 9.

By the disk method (for a vertical axis of revolution):

\displaystyle V=\pi \int_a^b [R(y)]^2\, dy

So:

\displaystyle V=\pi\int_0^9\Big(1-\frac{y}{9}\Big)^2\, dy

Simplify:

\displaystyle V=\pi\int_0^9(1-\frac{2y}{9}+\frac{y^2}{81})\, dy

Integrate:

\displaystyle V=\pi\Big[y-\frac{1}{9}y^2+\frac{1}{243}y^3\Big|_0^9\Big]

Evaluate (I ignored the 0):

\displaystyle V=\pi[9-\frac{1}{9}(9)^2+\frac{1}{243}(9^3)]=3\pi

The volume of the solid is 3π square units.

Note:

You can do this without calculus. Notice that R₁ revolved around AB is simply a right cone with radius 1 and height 9. Then by the volume for a cone formula:

\displaystyle V=\frac{1}{3}\pi(1)^2(9)=3\pi

We acquire the exact same answer.

Betsy drove from london to wolverhampton.it took her 2.5 hours at an average speed of 56 miles per hour.Mac drove the same journ
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

44.8 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Betsy drove from london to wolverhampton.it took her 2.5 hours at an average speed of 56 miles per hour.Mac drove the same journy by motor bike.It took him 2 hours.Assuming that both took the same route,work out Mac's average speed in mph.

The above question is solved using Proportion method

2.5 hours = 56 mph

2 hours = x mph

Cross Multiply

2.5 hours × x mph = 2 hours × 56 mph

x mph = 2 hours × 56 mph/2.5 hours

x mph = 44.8 mph

Therefore, Mac's average speed = 44.8 mph

Use elimination to solve the system of equations. Show your work 5×-3y=6,2×+5y=-10.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

5(5x-3y=6)

3(2x+5y=-10)

25x-15y=30

6x+15y=-30

31x= 0

x = 0

5(0)-3y=6

-3y=6

y= -2

(0,-2)
