(Moderator's note: thread moved from Calculus and Analysis)

I just need to know if my answer is correct for the following:

Find the z-coordinate of the center of gravity of the region:

(x/(z^3-1))^2 + (y/(z^3+1))^2<=1, 0<=z<=1.

I'm getting 7/16; am I in the ballpark? Thanks for any help.

I got that value as well.
 
Thanks; glad to know I'm at least somewhat following this material.
 
Thread 'Use greedy vertex coloring algorithm to prove the upper bound of χ'
Hi! I am struggling with the exercise I mentioned under "Homework statement". The exercise is about a specific "greedy vertex coloring algorithm". One definition (which matches what my book uses) can be found here: https://people.cs.uchicago.edu/~laci/HANDOUTS/greedycoloring.pdf Here is also a screenshot of the relevant parts of the linked PDF, i.e. the def. of the algorithm: Sadly I don't have much to show as far as a solution attempt goes, as I am stuck on how to proceed. I thought...
