instantaneous rate of growth

Populations of two species $A$ and $B$ at time $0$ are equal. If the instantaneous rates of growth of populations of species $A$ and $B$ are $u$ and $u + 1$ respectively, $u > 0$, then at time $1$ the population of species $B$ would be (a)…

Finding original region after change of variables integral calculus

Let us consider the mapping $\phi:\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R}$ given $\phi(u,v):\begin{cases} x=u+v\\y=v-u^2 \end{cases}$ Let $D$ denote the triangle with vertices $(0,0),\,(2,0)$ and $(0,2)$ in the plane $(u,v)$. Show that $\phi$ is a change of…

Choosing a change of variable

I need to choose a fitting change of variable to evaluate this integral: $$\phi=\phi_0 \mp \int^u du \left( \frac{2mE}{l^2} + \frac{2m^2\gamma u}{l^2}-u^2 \right)^{-1/2}$$ Is there any clever way of knowing what would be a good change of variable in…

How do I perform a change of variables?

Use a change of variables to evaluate: $$\iiint\limits_{D}xy\,\mathrm{d}V$$$D$ is bounded by the planes $y-x=0$, $y-x=4$, $z-y=0$, $z-y=1$, $z=0$, $z=5$. A similar question was asked here. It was never answered, because the OP demonstrated that…
