Answer:

<h2>Diana uses 5/8 square yard of fabric for both pillows.</h2><h2>There remains 3/8 square yard of fabric.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

The total amount of fabric is 1 square yard.
One pillow requires 3/8 square yard of fabric.
A second pillow requires 2/8 square yard of fabric.

To find the total amount of fabric Diana used, we must sum those fractions

$\frac{3}{8} +\frac{2}{8}=\frac{5}{8}$

Diana uses 5/8 square yard of fabric for both pillows.

Now, we subtract to find the remaining amount of fabric

$1-\frac{5}{8}=\frac{8-5}{8}=\frac{3}{8}$

Therefore, there remains 3/8 square yard of fabric.

Calculate gcd(77, 30) by using the Euclidean algorithm. Find also integers u and v such that 49u + 30v = 1. Furthermore, find su

VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

1. gcd(77,30)=1

$77=2*30+17\\30=1*17+13\\17=1*13+4\\13=3*4+1\\4=4*1+0$

Since 1 is the last non zero remainder appearing in these equations then, 1 is the gcd of 77 and 30.

2. u=-11, v=18

Using the Euclidean Algorithm we have that

$49=1*30+19\\30=1*19+11\\19=1*11+8\\11=1*8+3\\8=2*3+2\\3=1*2+1\\2=1*2+0$

Now, we express the remainder as linear combinations of 49 and 30.

$1&=3-2\\ &=3-(8-2*3)=3-8+2*3\\&=(11-8)-8+2(11-8)=3*11-4*8\\&=3*11-4(19-11)=7*11-4*19\\&=7(30-19)-4*19=7*30-11*19\\&=7*30-11(49-30)=\\&=18*30-11*49$

Then $1=(-11)49+18*30$

3. x=18

If $30x\equiv 1\text{mod 77}$ then

$30x=k*77+1$ for some $k\in \mathbb{Z}$ .

Then, if k=7,

$30x=7*77+1=540\\x=\frac{540}{30}=18$

How to find the average squared distance between the points of the unit disk and the point (1,1)

ddd [48]

The unit disk can be parameterized by the function

$\mathbf p(r,\theta)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta)$

where $0\le r\le 1$ and $0\le\theta\le2\pi$ . The squared distance between any point in this region $(x,y)=(r\cos\theta,r\sin\theta)$ and the point (1, 1) is

$(x-1)^2+(y-1)^2=(r\cos\theta-1)^2+(r\sin\theta-1)^2$
$=(r^2\cos^2\theta-2r\cos\theta+1)+(r^2\sin^2\theta-2r\sin\theta+1)$
$=r^2(\cos^2\theta+\sin^2\theta)-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2$
$=r^2-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2$

The average squared distance is then going to be the ratio of [the sum of all squared distances between every point in the disk and the point (1, 1)] to [the area of the disk], i.e.

$\dfrac{\displaystyle\iint_{x^2+y^2$
$=\dfrac{\displaystyle\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\int_{r=0}^{r=1}[r^2-2r(\cos\theta-\sin\theta)+2]r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta}{\displaystyle\int_{\theta=0}^{\theta=2\pi}\int_{r=0}^{r=1}r\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta}$
$=\dfrac{\frac{5\pi}2}\pi=\dfrac52$
