Homework Statement



Can someone see if I have set this up correctly? So I am to evaluate ∫∫∫6xydV. The region lies between z = 1+x+y and above the region in the xy plane bounded by the curves y = √x, y = 0, x = 1.
So, would this be equal to ∫∫∫6xydzdydx, where z is evaluated from 0 to 1+x+y, y is evaluated from √x to -1-x, and x is evaluated from 0 to 1? Thanks!

Your limits for z and x looks fine, but why do you think y goes from \sqrt{x} to -x-1? Where do you get that last mentioned limit for y?
 
I guess because that's where the projection of z = 1+x+y on the xy plane intersects the curve y = √x. so i thought y would range between √x and -1 - x. Thanks.
 
Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
