Answer:

y = $\frac{1}{2}$ x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the general equation of the line be y = ax + b

Note that the points (6,0) and (0,-3) lie on the line. That means, it should satisfy the equation of the line. We substitute the points on the equation of the line.

We would have:

$0 = 6a + b \hspace{25mm} ...(1)$

$-3 = a(0) + b \hspace{20mm} ....(2)$

From (2), we get: b = -3

From (1), we have -6a = b

Substituting b = -3, we get:

-6a = -3

⇒ a = 1/2

Therefore, the equation of the line would become: y = 1/2x - 3

Use the given transformation x=4u, y=3v to evaluate the integral. ∬r4x2 da, where r is the region bounded by the ellipse x216 y2

exis [7]

The Jacobian for this transformation is

$J = \begin{bmatrix} x_u & x_v \\ y_u & y_v \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 4 & 0 \\ 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix}$

with determinant $|J| = 12$ , hence the area element becomes

$dA = dx\,dy = 12 \, du\,dv$

Then the integral becomes

$\displaystyle \iint_{R'} 4x^2 \, dA = 768 \iint_R u^2 \, du \, dv$

where $R'$ is the unit circle,

$\dfrac{x^2}{16} + \dfrac{y^2}9 = \dfrac{(4u^2)}{16} + \dfrac{(3v)^2}9 = u^2 + v^2 = 1$

so that

$\displaystyle 768 \iint_R u^2 \, du \, dv = 768 \int_{-1}^1 \int_{-\sqrt{1-v^2}}^{\sqrt{1-v^2}} u^2 \, du \, dv$

Now you could evaluate the integral as-is, but it's really much easier to do if we convert to polar coordinates.

$\begin{cases} u = r\cos(\theta) \\ v = r\sin(\theta) \\ u^2+v^2 = r^2\\ du\,dv = r\,dr\,d\theta\end{cases}$

Then

$\displaystyle 768 \int_{-1}^1 \int_{-\sqrt{1-v^2}}^{\sqrt{1-v^2}} u^2\,du\,dv = 768 \int_0^{2\pi} \int_0^1 (r\cos(\theta))^2 r\,dr\,d\theta \\\\ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ = 768 \left(\int_0^{2\pi} \cos^2(\theta)\,d\theta\right) \left(\int_0^1 r^3\,dr\right) = \boxed{192\pi}$
