2.33 A small river is found to be polluted due to the chemical waste from two major industries, A and B. Due to the strict standards enforced by the EPA, the probability of controlling the pollutions from A and B are 0.7 and 0.85, respectively, in the next two years. It is estimated that, if only one of the industries complies with the strict standards of EPA, there is a 75 percent probability of controlling the pollution in the river to an acceptable level. (a) Find the probability of controlling the pollution in the river in the next two years. (b) If the pol- lution in the river is not controlled in the next two years, what is the probability that it is caused entirely by the industry A?

A segment of the cylindrical capacitor is defined by ρ₁ < ρ < ρ₂, 0 < φ < α. If V(φ = 0) = 0 and V(φ = α) = y, show that the capacitance of the segment is C = (2πεL) / ln(ρ₂ / ρ₁), where L is the length and ε is the permittivity of the dielectric.

9. [8 points] A flat circular plate has the shape of the region $x^2 + y^2 \le 1$. The plate, including the boundary where $x^2 + y^2 = 1$, is heated so that the temperature at the point $(x, y)$ is given by $T(x, y) = x^2 + 2y^2 - x$ Find the points on the plate that are the hottest and the coldest. For the boundary of the plate, use Lagrange Multipliers. To aid in your calculation, note that $T\left(\frac{1}{2}, \pm \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\right) = \frac{9}{4}$
