A tunnel has height, h, (in metres) given by h=14-x^2 where x is the horizontal distance from the centre of the tunnel. Find the cross sectional area of the tunnel. Also find the maximum height of a truck passing through the tunnel that is 4m wide.

Firstly, solve 0=14-x^2 to find the horisontal distance to the edges of the tunnel. x1=sqrt(14), x2= -sqrt(14).

Integrate h=14-x^2 between x1 and x2 28*sqrt(14) -(2(sqrt(14)^3))/3. This is the requ...

Starting with a(x - b)^2 - c, if we expand the bracket we get:

a(x^2 - 2xb + b^2) -c

Since we need to end up with the coefficient on x^2 being 3 and in the expression above x^2 is only multi...
