Answer:

Find the value of x, if 8,x, x, 50 are in proportion.

If a,b,c and d are in proportion then we have a/b = c/d

Now we need to find the value of x given if 8, x, x, 50 are in proportion.

So we have 8/x = x/50

      Or x x x = 8 x 50

     Or x^2 = 400

     Or x = ±√400

      Or x = ± 20

Therefore the value of x will be + 20 or - 20

Find the volume V of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified line. y2
HACTEHA [7]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Find the volume V of the solid obtained by rotating the region bounded by the given curves about the specified line. y2 = 2x, x = 2y; about the y-axis

Answer:

V = π (512/15)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

region of rotation

y² = 2x, x = 2y

Region is rotated about y-axis as shown in the image

for the point of intersection,

y²/2 = 2y

y² - 4y = 0

y(y-4) = 0

∴ y = 0, y = 4

so the region lies in 0 ≤ y ≤ 4

Now cross section area of washer is

A(y) = π(outer radius)² = π(inner radius)²

A(y) = π(2y)² - π(y²/2)²

A(y) = π(4y²) - π(y⁴/4)

A(y) = π(4y² - (y⁴/4))

now volume of the solid of revolution is

V = ⁴∫₀ A(y) dy

V = ⁴∫₀ π(4y² - (y⁴/4))dy

V =  π {4⁴∫₀ y² - 1/4⁴∫₀y⁴ dy }

V = π { 4/3 [y³]₀⁴ - 1/20 [y⁵]₀⁴ }

V = π { 4/3 [4]₀⁴ - 1/20 [4]₀⁴ }

V = π { 4/3 [64]₀⁴ - 1/20 [1024]₀⁴ }

V = π { 256/3 - 1024/20 }

V = π { (5120 - 3072) / 60 }

V = π (512/15)

White raven [17]

5/6 is equivalent to 20/24

3/4 is equivalent to 18/24

so 5/6 is bigger than 3/4 by 2/24

Should my answer be 85=360+12h
pickupchik [31]

Answer:

h = \frac{- 275}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

85 = 360 + 12h

85 - 360 = 360 - 360 + 12h

- 275 = 12h

- 275 ÷ 12 = 12h ÷ 12

h = - 275/12
