Consider F and C below. F(x, y) = x4y5i + x5y4j, C: r(t) = t3 − 2t, t3 + 2t , 0 ≤ t ≤ 1 (a) Find a function f such that F = ∇f.

$\mathbf f(x,y)=x^4y^5\,\mathbf i+x^5y^4\,\mathbf j$

We want a scalar function $f(x,y)$ whose gradient is equivalent to the vector field. That means

$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=x^4y^5\implies f(x,y)=\dfrac{x^5y^5}5+g(y)$
$\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=x^5y^4\implies x^5y^4=x^5y^4+\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}$
$\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dg}{\mathrm dy}=0\implies g(y)=C$

So (a)

$f(x,y)=\dfrac{x^5y^5}5+C$

which means (b)

$\displaystyle\int_{\mathcal C}\mathbf f\cdot\mathrm d\mathbf r=f(\mathbf r(1))-f(\mathbf r(0))=f(-1,3)-f(0,0)=-\dfrac{243}5-0=-\dfrac{243}5$

How do I graph this? Please use a picture

Leto [7]

You first have to turn 2x + 4y = -8 into y = mx + b before graphing. To do this, you subtract 2x from the left side of the equation because inverse operations. This will bring 2x to the right side. Now, you will have 4 = -2x + 8. However, you cannot have a number with y. Therefore, you must divide -8 and 2 by 4. You will get y = -1/2 x + 2 as your equation.
To graph -1/2x + 2, you must remember rise/run. Since it is NEGATIVE -1/2, your slope will go downwards (1 down, 2 across) starting from y = 2.

Which expressions are equivalent to 16? Select each correct expression

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer: Choose 2 to the 4th power, 4 to the 2nd power, and 16 to the power of 1

Step-by-step explanation:

When working with exponents, whatever number is the corner of another number, multiply it by itself. For instance, if you have 2 to the 4th power, multiply 2x2x2x2 which is 16. Also there is 4 to the 2nd power which is 4x4 which is also 16. Lastly you have 16 to the power of 1 and anything multiplied by 1 stays the same.

Please Help me To solve this Problem

mart [117]

You're given that φ is an angle that terminates in the third quadrant (III). This means that both cos(φ) and sin(φ), and thus sec(φ) and csc(φ), are negative.

Recall the Pythagorean identity,

cos²(φ) + sin²(φ) = 1

Multiply the equation uniformly by 1/cos²(φ),

cos²(φ)/cos²(φ) + sin²(φ)/cos²(φ) = 1/cos²(φ)

1 + tan²(φ) = sec²(φ)

Solve for sec(φ) :

sec(φ) = - √(1 + tan²(φ))

Given that cot(φ) = 1/4, we have tan(φ) = 1/cot(φ) = 1/(1/4) = 4. Then

sec(φ) = - √(1 + 4²) = -√17
