Answer:
<h2>C. 3 gal. 3 qt. 1 pt.</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
1 gallon = 4 quarts
5 gallons 2 quarts 1 pint = 4 gallons 6 quarts 1 pint
(5 gallons 2 quarts 1 pint) - (1 gallon 3 quarts)
= (4 gallons 6 quarts 1 pint) - (1 gallon 3 quarts)
= 3 gallons 3 quarts 1 pint
(a) First find the intersections of

and

:

So the area of

is given by

If you're not familiar with the error function

, then you will not be able to find an exact answer. Fortunately, I see this is a question on a calculator based exam, so you can use whatever built-in function you have on your calculator to evaluate the integral. You should get something around 0.5141.
(b) Find the intersections of the line

with

.

So the area of

is given by


which is approximately 1.546.
(c) The easiest method for finding the volume of the solid of revolution is via the disk method. Each cross-section of the solid is a circle with radius perpendicular to the x-axis, determined by the vertical distance from the curve

and the line

, or

. The area of any such circle is

times the square of its radius. Since the curve intersects the axis of revolution at

and

, the volume would be given by
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The saying "A picture is worth a thousand words" comes to mind here. You can list all of the possible points in a solution region, or you can list a few points to give the general pattern. Though this method requires a bit more work than simply graphing and showing the solution shaded region. A visual is often more efficient at conveying a message especially to those who aren't proficient with algebra. I'm sure there are other reasons why graphs are the better choice, but that's all I could think of really.
