Answer:

x = - 3, x = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x- intercepts let y = 0 , that is

x² + x - 6 = 0 ← in standard form

Consider the factors of the constant term (- 6) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (+ 1)

The factors are + 3 and - 2 , since

3 × - 2 = 6 and 3 - 2 = + 1 , then

x+ 3)(x - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

x - 2 = 0 ⇒ x = 2

A in all stands for All positive
S in students stands for sin and its inverse (csc) is positive.
T in take stands for tan and its inverse (cot) is positive.

Find the area of the surface. the part of the hyperbolic paraboloid z = y2 − x2 that lies between the cylinders x2 + y2 = 16 and

meriva

Parameterize the surface (call it $\mathcal S$ ) by

$\mathbf s(u,v)=\langle u\cos v,u\sin v,u^2\sin^2v-u^2\cos^2v\rangle=\langle u\cos v,u\sin v,-u^2\cos2v\rangle$

with $4\le u\le5$ and $0\le v\le2\pi$ , which yields

$\mathrm dS=\|\mathbf s_u\times\mathbf s_v\|\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=u\sqrt{1+4u^2}\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv$

Then the area of $\mathcal S$ is given by the surface integral

$\displaystyle\iint_{\mathcal S}\mathrm dS=\int_{v=0}^{v=2\pi}\int_{u=4}^{u=5}u\sqrt{1+4u^2}\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv=\dfrac{(101^{3/2}-65^{3/2})\pi}6$

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First sequence : 10,9.5,9,8.5,...

Let's see the difference between 2 numbers :
10 - 9.5 = 0.5
9.5 - 9 = 0.5
9 - 8.5 - 0.5

So on and so on. So, the common difference between these numbers are 0.5

Next sequence : 200,100,50,25, ...

We see, to get from one number to another, we divide it by 2 / multiply it by 1/2.

200 x 1/2 = 100
100 x 1/2 = 50
50 x 1/2 = 25

So on and so on. So, the common ratio of these numbers are 1/2.
