Homework Statement



Let R be the region bounded by x^3/2+y^3/2=a^3/2 (x>0, y>0) and the coordinate axes x=0, y=0. Express it in double integral over a rectangle.

Homework Equations


The Attempt at a Solution



How to solve this people please?

I tried a couples time but failed to find v u which is essential to solving this problem as all we have to do is find ∂(u,v)/∂(x,y)

cheers

What specifically have you tried?
 
let u=y/(a^1.5-x^1.5)^2/3 and v=x/(a^1.5-y^1.5)^2/3
got 0 for this
let u=y/(a^1.5-x^1.5)^2/3 and v=x/y this got really nasty
so i just don't know the trick of findin proper v and u
 
Try [itex]\displaystyle u=x^{3/2}+y^{3/2} \,,\[/itex] and [itex]\displaystyle v=x^{3/2}-y^{3/2} \,,\[/itex]

You may have to do some tweaking on this.
