In 3(7-4)/2 you have you have to multiply 3 by 7 and by -4 and the answer would be 21-12/2=9/2 or 4.5. While in 3 * 7 -4/2 you will have to multiply 3 by 7 only and your answer will be 21 -4/2=17/2 or 8.5.

The base of a solid in the region bounded by the two parabolas y2 = 8x and x2 = 8y. Cross sections of the solid perpendicular to

Usimov [2.4K]

The two curves intersect at two points, (0, 0) and (8, 8):

$x^2=8y\implies y=\dfrac{x^2}8$

$y^2=\dfrac{x^4}{64}=8x\implies\dfrac{x^4}{64}-8x=0\implies\dfrac{x(x-8)(x^2+8x+64)}{64}=0$

$\implies x=0,x=8\implies y=0,y=8$

The area of a semicircle with diameter $d$ is $\dfrac{\pi d^2}8$ . The diameter of each cross-section is determined by the vertical distance between the two curves for any given value of $x$ between 0 and 8. Over this interval, $y^2=8x\implies y=\sqrt{8x}$ and $\sqrt{8x}>\dfrac{x^2}8$ , so the volume of this solid is given by the integral
