Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a pentagon is gotten through the summation of its five sides. Let the first side be represented by x. Since each side of a pentagon is 10 cm greater than the previous side, then the sides will be:

First side = x

Second side = x + 10

Third side = x + 10 + 10 = x + 20

Forth side = x + 30

Fifty side = x + 40

Therefore,

x + (x + 10) + (x + 20) + (x + 30) + (x + 40) = 500

5x + 100 = 500

5x = 500 - 100

5x = 400

x = 400/5

x = 80

Therefore, the lengths will be:

First side = x = 80cm

Second side = x + 10 = 80 + 10 = 90cm

Third side = x + 20 = 80 + 20 = 100cm

Forth side = x + 30 = 80 + 30 = 110cm

Fifty side = x + 40 = 80 + 40 = 120cm

Use the Divergence Theorem to evaluate S F · dS, where F(x, y, z) = z2xi + y3 3 + sin z j + (x2z + y2)k and S is the top half of
GenaCL600 [577]

Close off the hemisphere S by attaching to it the disk D of radius 3 centered at the origin in the plane z=0. By the divergence theorem, we have

\displaystyle\iint_{S\cup D}\vec F(x,y,z)\cdot\mathrm d\vec S=\iiint_R\mathrm{div}\vec F(x,y,z)\,\mathrm dV

where R is the interior of the joined surfaces S\cup D.

Compute the divergence of \vec F:

\mathrm{div}\vec F(x,y,z)=\dfrac{\partial(xz^2)}{\partial x}+\dfrac{\partial\left(\frac{y^3}3+\sin z\right)}{\partial y}+\dfrac{\partial(x^2z+y^2)}{\partial k}=z^2+y^2+x^2

Compute the integral of the divergence over R. Easily done by converting to cylindrical or spherical coordinates. I'll do the latter:

\begin{cases}x(\rho,\theta,\varphi)=\rho\cos\theta\sin\varphi\\y(\rho,\theta,\varphi)=\rho\sin\theta\sin\varphi\\z(\rho,\theta,\varphi)=\rho\cos\varphi\end{cases}\implies\begin{cases}x^2+y^2+z^2=\rho^2\\\mathrm dV=\rho^2\sin\varphi\,\mathrm d\rho\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm d\varphi\end{cases}

So the volume integral is

\displaystyle\iiint_Rx^2+y^2+z^2\,\mathrm dV=\int_0^{\pi/2}\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^3\rho^4\sin\varphi\,\mathrm d\rho\,\mathrm d\theta\,\mathrm d\varphi=\frac{486\pi}5

From this we need to subtract the contribution of

\displaystyle\iint_D\vec F(x,y,z)\cdot\mathrm d\vec S

that is, the integral of \vec F over the disk, oriented downward. Since z=0 in D, we have

\vec F(x,y,0)=\dfrac{y^3}3\,\vec\jmath+y^2\,\vec k

Parameterize D by

\vec r(u,v)=u\cos v\,\vec\imath+u\sin v\,\vec\jmath

where 0\le u\le 3 and 0\le v\le2\pi. Take the normal vector to be

\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial v}\times\dfrac{\partial\vec r}{\partial u}=-u\,\vec k

Then taking the dot product of \vec F with the normal vector gives

\vec F(x(u,v),y(u,v),0)\cdot(-u\,\vec k)=-y(u,v)^2u=-u^3\sin^2v

So the contribution of integrating \vec F over D is

\displaystyle\int_0^{2\pi}\int_0^3-u^3\sin^2v\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=-\frac{81\pi}4

and the value of the integral we want is

(integral of divergence of <em>F</em>) - (integral over <em>D</em>) = integral over <em>S</em>

==>  486π/5 - (-81π/4) = 2349π/20

With respect to conducting a situation analysis, what does the phrase "Analysis alone is not a solution" mean?
nikklg [1K]

Answer: Analysis alone is not sufficient because a relationship should be made between a persons instinct and his judgement of matters to arrive at a useful conclusion.

Step-by-step explanation:

While it is necessary to conduct a situation analysis, it is also important to note that a situation analysis on its own is not enough because there should be a relationship drawn between good judgment and instinct so as to make the outcome of the analysis relevant when making important decisions.

For a situation analysis to be effective, information must be broken down sufficiently into bits so as to have a proper understanding as to why organizations, customers, and individuals behave or work the way they do. After these things are thoroughly understood, then the decision maker can make a more effective decision.

Plz help I need to pass math!!!!!
serg [7]
You would divide 8 3/4 by 50 to find out how many cups you would get for just one cupcake. So you would do 8 3/4 DIVIDED BY 50= 0.175 which means there will be 0.175 cups of sugar per cupcake.

A tennis player wins a match 55% of the time when she serves first and 47% of the time when her opponent serves first. The playe
Ray Of Light [21]

ok so she has a 50% chance of serving first so if she serves first she has a 55% percent chance of winning multiply .55 and .50 to get .275 now she also has a 50% chance of not serving first so multiply .47 and .50 to get .235 now that you have the two probabilities of her winning you add them together so .275+.235 = .51 so she has a <u>51%</u> chance of winning the game
