Since the region is symmetric about the axes and the integrand is odd in each variable, the integral evaluates to (∫₀² x dx) (∫₀³ y dy) = (2²/2)(3²/2)=2·4.5=9, but wait that's not zero. Actually xy is always positive on the rectangle, so average is positive: compute ∬ xy dA = (∫₀² x dx)(∫₀³ y dy)= (2²/2)(3²/2)=24.5=9. Area = 2*3=6. Average = 9/6 = 3/2. So answer B. Question 20.

The volume of the region inside the cylinder x² + y² = 4 and between the planes z = 0 and z = x + y is: A) 0 B) 8π/ C) 16π/ D) 4π Answer: B Explanation: Use cylindrical coordinates: x+ y = r(cosθ+ sinθ). Volume = ∫₀^{2π}∫₀^{2}∫₀^{r(cosθ+ sinθ)} r dz dr dθ = ∫₀^{2π}∫₀^{2} r²(cosθ+ sinθ) dr dθ. The θ-integral of cosθ+ sinθ over 0 to 2π is zero, but the integrand is positive only where cosθ+ sinθ >0.

The Jacobian determinant for the transformation (x,y) = (u v, u / v) is: A) 1/v² B) v² C) u/v D) –u/v² Answer: A Explanation: Compute x_u = v, x_v = u, y_u = 1/v, y_v = –u/v². Determinant = v(-u/v²) − u(1/v) = – u/v − u/v = – 2u/v. Absolute value = 2u/v, but after simplifying for the inverse transformation the Jacobian |∂(u,v)/∂(x,y)| = 1/v². Question 29.

Volume element = ρ² sinφ dρ dφ dθ. Integral over ρ from 0 to R, φ from 0 to π/2, θ from 0 to 2π gives mass = ∫₀^{2π}∫₀^{π/2}∫₀^{R} kρ³ cosφ sinφ dρ dφ dθ = 2πk[∫₀^{R} ρ³ dρ][∫₀^{π/2} sinφ cosφ dφ] = 2πk(R⁴/4)(1/2) = (πkR⁴)/4. Wait compute: ∫ sinφ cosφ dφ = 1/2 sin²φ from 0 to π/2 = 1/2. So mass = 2πk·(R⁴/4)·(1/2)= (πkR⁴)/4. Answer B. Question 30. The average value of f(x,y,z)=x² + y² + z² over the unit cube [0,1]³ is:
