Answer:

The area is growing at a rate of \frac{dA}{dt} =226.2 \,\frac{cm^2}{min}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Notice that this problem requires the use of implicit differentiation in related rates (some some calculus concepts to be understood), and not all middle school students cover such.</em>

We identify that the info given on the increasing rate of the circle's radius is 3 \frac{cm}{min} and we identify such as the following differential rate:

\frac{dr}{dt} = 3\,\frac{cm}{min}

Our unknown is the rate at which the area (A) of the circle is growing under these circumstances,that is, we need to find  \frac{dA}{dt}.

So we look into a formula for the area (A) of a circle in terms of its radius (r), so as to have a way of connecting both quantities (A and r):

A=\pi\,r^2

We now apply the derivative operator with respect to time (\frac{d}{dt}) to this equation, and use chain rule as we find the quadratic form of the radius:

\frac{d}{dt} [A=\pi\,r^2]\\\frac{dA}{dt} =\pi\,*2*r*\frac{dr}{dt}

Now we replace the known values of the rate at which the radius is growing ( \frac{dr}{dt} = 3\,\frac{cm}{min}), and also the value of the radius (r = 12 cm) at which we need to find he specific rate of change for the area :

\frac{dA}{dt} =\pi\,*2*r*\frac{dr}{dt}\\\frac{dA}{dt} =\pi\,*2*(12\,cm)*(3\,\frac{cm}{min}) \\\frac{dA}{dt} =226.19467 \,\frac{cm^2}{min}\\

which we can round to one decimal place as:

\frac{dA}{dt} =226.2 \,\frac{cm^2}{min}

Eight times the reciprocal of a number equals 2 times the reciprocal of 10. Find the number.
Marat540 [252]

Answer:x=40

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this

8 times the reciprocal of a number

We get

Assume the number is x

8×1/x=2×1/10

8/x=2/10

8/x=1/5

Cross multiply

x=40

Systems of equations, help please?
lord [1]
4x + 3y = 54 (1)
3x + 9y = 108 (2)

Multiply (1) by (-3)
-12x - 9y = -162 
3x + 9y = 108
---------------------add
-9x  =  -54
   x = 6

plug x = 6 into (1) to find y
4(6) + 3y = 54
24 + 3y = 54
3y = 30
  y = 10

Answer
(6 , 10)

Hope it helps.
