Determine whether or not F is a conservative vector field. If it is, find a function f such that F = ∇f. F(x, y) = (2x − 7y)i + (−7x + 8y − 6)j

f = x^2-7yx+4y^2-6y

Step-by-step explanation:

A vector field is conservative if the work done by that vector field around any loop is 0 or the end points only matter when calculating the work done, not the path in between (think of gravity). The curl(F) must equal 0.

curl(F) = ∇ x F =0

= det( ) (***partial derv)

-7 - (-7) = 0

Yes, it is conservative, which means we can find the potentional energy function by turning the vector field into the gradient of scalar function.

80π/3 or about 83.775

step-by-step explanation:

since a cone is 1/3 of a cylinder, we need to find the base's area. since area = πr^2, we get 16π. then, multiplying this by 5, we get 80π. dividing by 3, since the cone's volume is 1/3 of that of a cylinder's, we get 80π/3.

hope this !

i believe the correct answer is b.
