Answer:

$y=-\frac{5}{3} x+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line we are trying to study is parallel to the one given by the standard equation 5x + 3y = 6, it needs to have the same slope as this given line has. Let's write then this equation in slope-intercept so we can find what the slope is :

$5x+3y=6\\3y=-5x+6\\y=-\frac{5}{3} x+\frac{6}{3} \\y=-\frac{5}{3} x+2$

Then the slope of our line must also be "-5/3" in order to be parallel to the given line.

Now, since we also know a point (3, -1) through which the new line should go, we use the point-slope form of a line:

$y-y_0=m(x-x_0)\\y-(-1)=-\frac{5}{3} (x-3)\\y+1=-\frac{5}{3} x+5\\y=-\frac{5}{3} x+4$

Let V be the volume of the solid obtained by rotating about the y-axis the region bounded y = sqrt(25x) and y = x^2/25. Find V b

Westkost [7]

Explanation:

Let $f(x) = \sqrt{25x}$ and $g(x) = \frac{x^2}{25}$ . The differential volume dV of the cylindrical shells is given by

$dV = 2\pi x[f(x) - g(x)]dx$

Integrating this expression, we get

$\displaystyle V = 2\pi\int{x[f(x) - g(x)]}dx$

To determine the limits of integration, we equate the two functions to find their solutions and thus the limits:

$\sqrt{25x} = \dfrac{x^2}{25}$

We can clearly see that x = 0 is one of the solutions. For the other solution/limit, let's solve for x by first taking the square of the equation above:

$25x = \dfrac{x^4}{(25)^2} \Rightarrow \dfrac{x^3}{(25)^3} = 1$

$x^3 =(25)^3 \Rightarrow x = \pm25$

Since we are rotating the functions around the y-axis, we are going to use the x = 25 solution as one of the limits. So the expression for the volume of revolution around the y-axis is

$\displaystyle V = 2\pi\int_0^{25}{x\left(\sqrt{25x} - \frac{x^2}{25}\right)}dx$
