The Eiffel Tower property Let R be the region between the curves y = e−cx and y = −e−cx on the interval [a, ∞), where a ≥ 0 and c > 0. The center of mass of R is located at
- a. For a = 0 and c = 2, sketch the curves that define R and find the center of mass of R. Indicate the location of the center of mass.
- b. With a = 0 and c = 2, find equations of the lines tangent to the curves at the points corresponding to x = 0.
- c. Show that the tangent lines intersect at the center of mass.
- d. Show that this same property holds for any a ≥ 0 and any c > 0; that is, the tangent lines to the curves y = ± e−cx at x = a intersect at the center of mass of R.

- Simplify the following function using k-maps. F(X,Y)=X+X'Yarrow_forwardLet l be a line in the x-yplane. If l is a vertical line, its equation is x = a for some real number a. Suppose l is not a vertical line and its slope is m. Then the equation of l is y = mx + b, where b is the y-intercept. If l passes through the point (x₀, y₀), the equation of l can be written as y - y₀ = m(x - x₀). If (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are two points in the x-y plane and x₁ ≠ x₂, the slope of line passing through these points is m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁).
