Answer:

Both sports = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

What an interesting question. At first I didn't think it was possible. Then I saw the word only. That made all the difference in the world.

Givens

Football only = 35

Volleyball only = 15

Ratio = 5/3

Equation

Let the number of students who play both = x

Volleyball / Football = (x + 15) /(x + 35) = 3/5

Solution

(x + 15) / (x + 35) = 3/5                  Cross multiply

5*(x + 15) = 3(x + 35)                     Remove the brackets

5x + 75 = 3x + 105                        Subtract 3x from both sides

<u>3x            3x</u>

2x + 75 = 105                               Subtract 75 from both sides

   <u>   - 75   -75  </u>

2x = 30                                        Divide by 2  

2x/2 = 30/2

x = 15

15 people play both sports.

A tank has the shape of a surface generated by revolving the parabolic segment y = x2 for 0 ≤ x ≤ 3 about the y-axis (measuremen
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

100\pi\int\limits^9_0 {(\sqrt y)^2(14-y)} \, dy ft-lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The shape of the tank is obtained by revolving y=x^2 about y axis in the interval 0\leq x\leq 3.

Density of the fluid in the tank, D=100\ lbs/ft^3

Let the initial height of the fluid be 'y' feet from the bottom.

The bottom of the tank is, y(0)=0^2=0

Now, the height has to be raised to a height 5 feet above the top of the tank.

The height of top of the tank is obtained by plugging in x=3 in the parabolic equation . This gives,

H=3^2=9\ ft

So, the height of top of tank is, y(3)=H=9\ ft

Now, 5 ft above 'H' means H+5=9+5=14

Therefore, the increase in height of the top surface of the fluid in the tank is given as:

\Delta y=(14-y) ft

Now, area of cross section of the tank is given as:

A(y)=\pi r^2\\r\to radius\ of\ the\ cross\ section

Radius is the distance of a point on the parabola from the y axis. This is nothing but the x-coordinate of the point.

We have, y=x^2

So, x=\sqrt y

Therefore, radius, r=\sqrt y

Now, area of cross section is, A(y)=\pi (\sqrt y)^2

Work done in pumping the contents to 5 feet above is given as:

W=D\int\limits^{y(3)}_{y(0)} {A(y)(\Delta y)} \, dy

Plug in all the values. This gives,

W=100\int\limits^9_0 {\pi (\sqrt y)^2(14-y)} \, dy\\\\W=100\pi\int\limits^9_0 { (\sqrt y)^2(14-y)} \, dy\textrm{ ft-lbs}
