Consider the plate bounded by y² = 8x and x = 2 with density d = 2 - x.
Note: When dealing with a curve like y² = 8x, it's important to note that
there can be negative y-values. In particular, if taking square roots (which is
not necessary), be sure to include both positive and negative square roots.
1. Sketch a graph of the plate. Shade in the region and number the axes so
that the important points on the plate can be read from the graph.
2. Express the mass of the plate as a double integral and evaluate to find the
mass.
3. Express the x-coordinate¹ of the center of mass of the plate as a double
integral and evaluate to find the value of .
The boundaries of the shaded region are the y-axis, the line y = 1, and the curve y = Va. Find the area of this
region by writing a as a function of y and integrating with respect to y.

Consider the plate bounded by y² = 8x and x = 2 with density 8 = 2 - x.
1. Sketch a graph of the plate. Shade in the region and number the axes so that the important
points on the plate can be read from the graph.
2. Express the mass of the plate as a double integral and evaluate to find the mass.
3. Express the x-coordinate of the center of mass of the plate as a double integral and
evaluate to find the value of .
As a side note, by the symmetry of the plate and density, the y-coordinate of the center of
mass y = 0. It might be good practice to confirm this though.
