    Calculating Volume of Region Revolved About y=4

    Find the region enclosed by x=3y and x=-y^2+4. Set up integrals both shell and disc that represent the volume when this region is revolved about y=4. i got the shell method, how would i represent the disc method> pi integral(-4,1) (3y-4)^2-(-y^2)^2 --this is wat i got for disc method...

    How Does the Height of a Sand Pile Change as It Grows?

    Sand is falling onto a cone-shaped pile at the rate of 9pi cubic feet per minute. the diameter of the base is always 3 times the height of the cone. At what rate is the height of the pile changing when the pile is 12 feet high. work: dV/dt=+9 ft^3/min d=3h then r=3h/2 dr/dt=(3/2)...

    Classifying Discontinuities in a Piecewise Function

    Can someone please check my work, thank you Discuss any discontinuities. classify each discontinuity as removable or nonremovable. (this is a peicewise function) f(x)={sin(x), x<-3(pi)/2 {tan(x/2), -3(pi)/2<x(less than or equal to)0 {(-3x+1)/(x-2), 1<x<3 {-sqrt(x+6), x(greater than or...

    Find Limit of F(x) at x=1: 2x^2, 3, x+

    ok so lim(x->1+)=(1+1)=2 lim(x->1-)=(1+1)=2 so the limit exists, i don't understand how that helps in finding the overall limit of F(x) at 1.

    Find Limit of F(x) at x=1: 2x^2, 3, x+

    sorry that should be x+1

    Find Limit of F(x) at x=1: 2x^2, 3, x+

    F(x)= 2x^2, x<1 3, X=1 X+, x>1 Find lim(x-->1) f(X) f(1)= not exactly sure how to do this. would not f(1) be just 3, since it is defined as that in the function. I am not sure about how to take that limit. Thanks

    Limit lim(x->pi/4) tan(2x) =tan(pi/2)

    lim(x->pi/4) tan(2x) =tan(pi/2) wat to do after this, it is undefined

    Checking Answers: Autocrine, Paracine, Endocrine & Synaptic Signaling

    This seems similar to A. If it connects to the ends then we can liken this phenomenon to the telephone cord ends acting as the synapses. Is this correct?

    Checking Answers: Autocrine, Paracine, Endocrine & Synaptic Signaling

    I just need someone to please check if my answers are correct. Cells communicate in ways that are analogous to human communication. Decide which of the following forms of human communication are analogous to autocrine, paracine, endocrine , and synaptic signaling. A) a telephone...

    Which Cell Types Have High Density of Cytoplasmic Intermediate Filaments?

    INtermediate filaments function as tension-bearing elements to help maintain cell shape and rigidity, and serve to anchor in place several organelles, including the nucleus and desmosomes Ok if this is true then wouldn't a nerve cell in the spinal cord of a mouse need the filaments to...

    Which Cell Types Have High Density of Cytoplasmic Intermediate Filaments?

    Which of the following types of cells would you expect to contain a high density of cytoplasmic intermediate filaments? A) Free living amoeba (the answer is no, but why? Is it because the amoeba has to move) B) Human skin epithelial cell C) smooth cell in the digestive tract of a...

    Proteins synthesized in a cell

    So then all three instances would have to pass through the rough ER?

    Proteins synthesized in a cell

    The ribosomes are what make it look rough I believe

    Proteins synthesized in a cell

    Yes I know that it is the rough endoplasmic reticulum that is involved in protein synthesis

    Proteins synthesized in a cell

    Actually, for C, it says secreted outisde the cell. Then I believe it would follow the same pathway, Cytoplasm-ER(synthesis of soluble proteins)-Golgi-(the packaging) and then from there sent to other parts of body. And for A, is it that it will stay in the cytoplasm where there are ribosomes...
