    Volume of a bowl (using variables not numbers)

    since I'm revolving it around the y axis, how do i know what the length of the axis to the end of the bowl with the water is? I'm really confused

    Engineering Which engineering degree will be highly sought after in the future?

    I was just curious which degree would be highly sought after. Also on another note, what is the career outlook for optical engineering?

    How can I effectively use substitution to evaluate this integral?

    So then what? I have integral of (u+10)(u)^(1/3) du.

    How can I effectively use substitution to evaluate this integral?

    Homework Statement Evaluate the integral. Int((x+5)(x-5)^(1/3)dxHomework Equations The Attempt at a Solution I've attempted the problem but subsitution doesn't seem to do anything, as du = dx if u = x-5, which doesn't cancel anything.

    Anti-derivative motion problem

    Ok so it would be v(t) = -at + 44...anyways I ahead and tried to solve the problem. Could anyone check my solution? He said to leave it in fraction form and I got a = 1936/90 or 968/45.

    Anti-derivative motion problem

    so if the derivative is going to be -a then v(t) = -44t + v0?

    Anti-derivative motion problem

    Homework Statement The State cycle program requires motorcycle riders to be able to brake from 30 mph(44ft/sec) to 0 in 45 feet. What constant deceleration does it take to do that? No physics formulas allowed. Homework Equations Integral rules and whatnot The Attempt at a...

    Find this limit without L'Hopital's Rule

    Homework Statement L'Hopital's rule does not help with this limit. Find it some other way. lim (squarert(x)/squarert(sinx)) as x -> 0+ Homework Equations None? The Attempt at a Solution The only way I can think of solving this is by using L'Hopital's rule...but it obviously...

    Implicit Differentiation - 2nd derivative

    Maybe...I don't know this is from a previous test. I feel like she should've fixed this by now?

    Implicit Differentiation - 2nd derivative

    Homework Statement Find d2y/dx2 in terms of x and y for the following equation: xy + y^2 = 1 COMPLETELY SIMPLIFY Homework Equations dy/dx The Attempt at a Solution so i get -y/(x+2y) for the dy/dx. When I try to find the 2nd derivative and plug in dy/dx, I get...
