Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number we are looking for

Mathematically the statement “4 less than four times a number”

means 4x - 4

Mathematically the statement “three times the same number plus 1”

means 3x + 1

Statement 1 is equal to statement 2

means 4x - 4 = 3x + 1

We got an equation and we need to solve it :

4x - 4 = 3x + 1

⇔ 4x - 3x = 1 + 4

⇔ x = 5

An accident at an oil drilling platform is causing a circular oil slick. The slick is 0.07 foot thick, and when the radius of th

ololo11 [35]

Answer: $43.54 ft^3/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Thickness of oil slick=0.07 foot

radius of slick=110 ft

$\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.9 ft/s$

Let V be the volume of oil slick

so, $V=0.07\pi \cdot r^2$

rate of oil flowing is

$\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.07\times 2\pi \cdot r\frac{\mathrm{d} r}{\mathrm{d} t}$

$\frac{\mathrm{d} V}{\mathrm{d} t}=0.07\times 2\pi \times 110\times 0.9=43.54 ft^3/min$
