If a is directly proportional to b, we have the relationship to be:

\begin{gathered} a\propto b \\ \therefore \\ a=kb \\ where \\ b=constant \end{gathered}

When a = 25, b = 35. Therefore, we can calculate the value of k as follows:

\begin{gathered} 25=35k \\ k=\frac{25}{35} \\ k=\frac{5}{7} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the relationship is given to be:

a=\frac{5}{7}b

When a = 40, we can calculate the value of b to be:

\begin{gathered} 40=\frac{5}{7}b \\ 40\times7=5b \\ 5b=280 \\ b=\frac{280}{5} \\ b=56 \end{gathered}

The value of b is 56.

Water is flowing into a large spherical tank at a constant rate. Let V (t) be the volume of water in the tank at time t, and h(t
aleksley [76]

Answer:

See solutions for detail.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.  \frac{dV}{dt} is the instantaneous rate of change of volume given with respect to time, t.

The volume's rate of change is written as a function of time.

-\frac{dh}{dt} is the rate of change in the height of water in the tank with respect to time, t.

b.  \frac{dV}{dt}- is the only constant. Water flows into the constant at a constant rate, say 6cm^3 per minute.

c. \frac{dV}{dt} is positive. Volume water in the take  is increasing from time to time.

-The volume at time t=1 is greater than the volume at t=0, hence, it's a positive rate of change.

d. \frac{dh}{dt} is a positive rate. The initial height of water in the tank is zero.

-The final height at time t is 0.25h. The height is increasing with time.

Hence, it is positive.

On Monday, a company stock closed at a price of $30.80 per share. On Tuesday, it increased by $1.20 per share. On Wednesday, it
anygoal [31]
If I did this correctly, the answer should be 2.72. Monday's stock price is given to you already, 30.80. To find Tuesday's, you'd add 1.20 to the already existing 30.80, that totals to 32. To find the number for Wednesday you would have to get the percentage and move the decimal so you can multiply it, it should end at .0625. You then get that number and multiply it by 32 because it was Tuesday's amount. From that you should get 2. You then subtract the 2 and the total for Wednesday is 30. You do the same for Thursday, you get the already existing number, 30, and multiply it by .04. That should end in 1.2. You then subtract that 1.2 and you should get 28.8 as your answer for Thursday. For Friday, the steps repeat. You take the 28.8 and multiply it by .025. That should equal to .72. You now subtract that .72 from Thursday's amount and should be left with 28.08 for Friday. Now that all the numbers are known, take the numbers for Monday and for Friday and then subtract them. (30.80-28.08) It should equal to 2.72.
