Homework Statement
2. The attempt at a solution
I'm working on #49 ONLY.
I know the top line equation is f(x) = x
but I need to find the g(x), so how can I find with the point is given (4,3). Please help!
No, it isn't. How could it be, if it goes through (4, 3)?huybinhs said:Homework Statement

What is g(x) supposed to represent? I am assuming that what you are calling f(x) is the line through (0, 0) and (4, 3).huybinhs said:but I need to find the g(x), so how can I find with the point is given (4,3). Please help!

Mark44 said:Technical point: The equation of the line is y = 3x/4. 3x/4 is not an equation (there's no = .)

The moments Mx and My are used to determine the distribution of mass in an object and its orientation with respect to a specific axis. This information is important in understanding the stability and motion of an object.
The moments Mx and My are calculated by multiplying the mass of each element in an object by its distance from a chosen axis. The sum of these individual moments gives the total moment for that particular axis.
The center of mass is the point where the entire mass of an object is considered to be concentrated. It is important because it helps us understand how an object will move and react to external forces.
The center of mass is calculated by dividing the sum of the individual moments Mx and My by the total mass of the object. This gives the coordinates of the center of mass in terms of the chosen axis.
The accuracy of calculating the moments Mx, My and the center of mass can be affected by the precision of measurements, the density and distribution of mass in the object, and the chosen axis of reference. In some cases, external forces such as friction may also affect the accuracy of these calculations.
