Karen age=k
suzanne age=s

karen (k) is (=) 7 years older (+7) than suzanne(s)
k=7+s

four year ago means
s-4 and k-4

four years ago (-4 to all) karen (k) was (=) twice (2 times) suzzane (s)
k-4=2(s-4)
distribute
k-4=2s-8
add 4 to both sides
k=2s-4
we know that k=7+s so subsitute 7+s for k
7+s=2s-4
add 4 to both sides
11+s=2s
subtract s from both sides
11=s

suzanne=11
subsitute 11 for s in k=s+7

k=7+11
k=18


karen=18
suzanne=11

Assume that the radius r of a sphere is expanding at a rate of 40 cm/min. The volume of a sphere is V = 4 3 πr3 and its surface
Scrat [10]

Answer:

The rate of change in surface area when r = 20 cm is 20,106.19 cm²/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a sphere is given by the following formula:

A = 4\pi r^{2}

In which A is the area, measured in cm², and r is the radius, measured in cm.

Assume that the radius r of a sphere is expanding at a rate of 40 cm/min.

This means that \frac{dr}{dt} = 40

Determine the rate of change in surface area when r = 20 cm.

This is \frac{dA}{dt} when r = 20. So

A = 4\pi r^{2}

Applying implicit differentiation.

We have two variables, A and r, so:

\frac{dA}{dt} = 8r\pi \frac{dr}{dt}

\frac{dA}{dt} = 8*20\pi*40

\frac{dA}{dt} = 20106.19

The rate of change in surface area when r = 20 cm is 20,106.19 cm²/min.

Solve and check please i need help
viktelen [127]

Answer:

e = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi,

15 = e/0.5

You need to find what e equals. To do that, you need e all by itself. So to get e by itself in this equation, you need to multiply by 1/2 (same thing as 0.5). 15 x 0.5 is equal to 7.5.

To check your work, 7.5/0.5 is equal to 15.

So you know it's correct.

I hope this helps you :)
