The curve C has parametric equations x=cos(t)+1/2*sin(2t) and y =-(1+sin(t)) for 0<=t<=2π. Find a Cartesian equation for C. Find the volume of the solid of revolution of C about the y-axis.

Note the simplest relation to eliminate t is the fact cos2(t)+sin2(t)=1 for all t, so we need only find x and y in terms of cos(t) and sin(t).Note we have sin(t)=-(y+1) from the equa...

Given M = [[-2,6],[1,3]], find P and D such that M = PDP^(-1) where D is a diagonal matrix

We are given M = [[-2,6],[1,3]], with columns [-2,6] and [1,3]. To find P and D, eigenvalues and eigenvectors must be calculated, as D is defined to be the matrix whose diagonal is comprised of the eigenv...
