Explanation / Answer

23) We have given y=4-x,y=0,x=0 with density(x,y)=x

Let f(x)=4-x,g(x)=0

intersection point of y=4-x=0 implies x=4

Area of the region is

A=integration of (x=0 to 4) (4-x)dx =[4x-x^2/2] from x=0 to 4 =[16-16/2]=8

A=8

now the moments are

Mx=integration of (x=0 to 4) [density(x,y)1/2*(4-x)^2]dx and My=integration of (x=0 to 4) [density(x,y)*x*(4-x)]dx

Mx=integration of (x=0 to 4) [density(x,y)1/2*(4-x)^2]dx

=integration of (x=0 to 4) [x/2*(4-x)^2]dx   since density(x,y)=x

=integration of (x=0 to 4) [x/2*(16-8x+x^2)]dx

=integration of (x=0 to 4) [(8x-4x^2+(x^3)/2)]dx

=[4x-(4/3)x^3+(x^4)/8] from x=0 to 4

=[16-256/3+32]=[48-256+96]/3 =-112/3

Mx=-112/3

My=integration of (x=0 to 4) [density(x,y)*x*(4-x)]dx

=integration of (x=0 to 4) [x*x*(4-x)]dx since density(x,y)=x

=integration of (x=0 to 4) [4x^2-x^3)]dx

=[(4/3)x^3-x^4/4] from x=0 to 4

=[256/3 -64]=[256-192]/3=64/3

My=64/3

center of mass is (x bar,y bar)=(My/M,Mx/M)

My/M =1/A* integration of (x=0 to 4)[x*(4-x)]dx =1/8*integration of (x=0 to 4)[(4x-x^2)]dx

=1/8*[2x^2-x^3/3] from x=0 to 4

=1/8*[32-64/3]=1/8*[96-64]/3 =32/24

My/M =4/3

Mx/M =1/A* integration of (x=0 to 4)[1/2*(4-x)^2]dx =1/8* integration of (x=0 to 4)[1/2*(4-x)^2]dx

=1/8*integration of (x=0 to 4)[1/2*(16-8x+x^2)]dx

=1/8*(1/2)*[16x-4x^2+x^3/3] from x=0 to 4

=1/16*[64-64+64/3]

Mx/M=4/3

center of mass of the region is (x bar,y bar)=(4/3,4/3)
