sure what do u need help with

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry, took me a second to find where i'd stashed the screenshot. lol.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i know there's an x=-1, a y=-1 border and a i estimate y=(-5/4)x+2.75....could be 2.5....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry to keep bugging you, but you're always so helpful, @ganeshie8. can you help me again pretty please?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

in part a) we have `dydx` so you fix x value first, and vary y

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

shoot a vertical arrow cutting across the Region

OpenStudy (anonymous):

y=-1 and y=3. it's in between those

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

the vertical arrow enters the Region at y = -1, and leaves teh region at y = -5/4(x-3)-1

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Notice that the entering a boundary is a constant flat line y = -1 however leaving boundary is a slanted line : y = -5/4(x-3)-1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did you get that y=-5/4...line? i thought the line on the triangle was y=(-5/4)+2.75

OpenStudy (anonymous):

m=slope =-5/4 and b=2.5 or 2.75 estimating

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

take two points on the line : (-1, 4) and (3, -1)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

2.75 is right, you have just simplified..

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

\[\large \iint\limits_{R} f(x,y) ~dA = \int\limits_{-1}^3~\int\limits_{-1}^{-5/4x+2.75} f(x,y)~dy~dx\]

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

does that look good ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. yeah. that makes sense. would the x be the same except -1<x<4?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

x starts at -1 and ends at 3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh yeah. that's what i meant. oops

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

think of slicing the region vertically

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nice explaining ^_^ Medal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

-1<y<4
