Concept explainers
Equal volumes Let R1 be the region bounded by the graph of y = e−ax and the x-axis on the interval [0, b] where a > 0 and b > 0. Let R2 be the region bounded by the graph of y = e−ax and the x-axis on the interval [b, ∞). Let V1 and V2 be the volumes of the solids generated when R1 and R2 are revolved about the x-axis. Find and graph the relationship between a and b for which V1 = V2.

- A soda can is made from 40 square inches of aluminum. Let x denote the radius of the top of the can, and let h denote the height, both in inches. a. Express the total surface area S of the can, using x and h. Note: The total surface area is the area of the top plus the area of the bottom plus the area of the cylinder. b. Using the fact that the total area is 40 square inches, express h in terms of x. c. Express the volume V of the can in terms of x.arrow_forwardFor the sphers x-12+y+22+z-42=36 and x2+y2+z2=64, find the ratio of their a surface areas. b volumes.arrow_forward
