Answer:
- 7
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change of f(x) in the closed interval [ a, b ] is
Here [ a, b ] = [ - 5, - 2 ]
f(b) = f(- 2) = (- 2)² - 4 = 4 - 4 = 0
f(a) = f(- 5) = (- 5)² - 4 = 25 - 4 = 21, thus
average rate of change = =
= - 7
The two parabolas intersect for
and so the base of each solid is the set
The side length of each cross section that coincides with B is equal to the vertical distance between the two parabolas, . But since -2 ≤ x ≤ 2, this reduces to
.
a. Square cross sections will contribute a volume of
where ∆x is the thickness of the section. Then the volume would be
where we take advantage of symmetry in the first line.
b. For a semicircle, the side length we found earlier corresponds to diameter. Each semicircular cross section will contribute a volume of
We end up with the same integral as before except for the leading constant:
Using the result of part (a), the volume is
c. An equilateral triangle with side length s has area √3/4 s², hence the volume of a given section is
and using the result of part (a) again, the volume is
