Here's the problem:
View attachment 2442

I'm having trouble using T(u,v) to figure out how to find the region that transforms into the the given region, R. Can anyone help?

Thank you!

Have you at least drawn the region?

yes
 
Well now substitute $\displaystyle \begin{align*} x = u^{\frac{1}{3}}v^{\frac{2}{3}}\end{align*}$ and $\displaystyle \begin{align*} y = u^{\frac{2}{3}}v^{\frac{1}{3}} \end{align*}$ into all the functions. What are the new endpoints for u and v? What's the Jacobian?

Don't I need to solve for u and v and plug in the points to figure out the region that transforms into R under T(u,v) ?
