Answer:

  b. 15 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

We notice from the graph that AB is the hypotenuse of a right triangle 3 units wide and 6 units high. The Pythagorean theorem tells you the length of that will be ...

  AB = √(3^2 +6^2) = √45 = 3√5

Similarly, altitude CD is the hypotenuse of a right triangle 4 units wide and 2 units high, so its length will be ...

  CD = √(4^2 +2^2) = √20 = 2√5

The area is given by the formula ...

  A = 1/2bh

  A = 1/2(3√5)(2√5) = 15 . . . square units

A lamina with constant density rho(x, y) = rho occupies the given region. Find the moments of inertia Ix and Iy and the radii of
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Ix = Iy = \frac{ρπR^{4} }{16}

Radius of gyration x = y =  \frac{R}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A lamina with constant density ρ(x, y) = ρ occupies the given region x2 + y2 ≤ a2 in the first quadrant.

Mass of disk = ρπR2

Moment of inertia about its perpendicular axis is \frac{MR^{2} }{2}. Moment of inertia of quarter disk about its perpendicular is \frac{MR^{2} }{8}.

Now using perpendicular axis theorem, Ix = Iy = \frac{MR^{2} }{16} = \frac{ρπR^{4} }{16}.

For Radius of gyration K, equate MK2 = MR2/16, K= R/4.

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer: - x - 120

Explanation: You want to find the opposite of (120-x) not just x, so you just put the negative symbol next to both the variables.
