Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let it be

C (5;4) , A (2;1) ; B(7;6)

Suppose that C divide the line AB in ratio m/n from point A (AC is m, CB is n)

Use the formula xc=(m*xb+n*xa)/ (m+n)

5=(m*7+2n)/(m+n)

5m+5n= 7m+2n

2m=3n

m/n=3/2

Find the volume of the wedge-shaped region (Figure 1) contained in the cylinder x2+y2=81 and bounded above by the plane z=x and

Natali5045456 [20]

In cylindrical coordinates, the volume is given with

$\displaystyle\int_{\theta=-\pi/2}^{\theta=\pi/2}\int_{r=0}^{r=9}\int_{z=0}^{z=r\cos\theta}r\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta$
$=\displaystyle\int_{\theta=-\pi/2}^{\theta=\pi/2}\int_{r=0}^{r=9}r^2\cos\theta\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta$
$=\displaystyle\left(\int_{\theta=-\pi/2}^{\theta=\pi/2}\cos\theta\,\mathrm d\theta\right)\left(\int_{r=0}^{r=9}r^2\,\mathrm dr\right)$
$=486$
