Answer:

Length = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the recatngle is:

- width → x

and

- length → x+7

The area of a rectangle follows the formula: length*width

Meaning: x * (x + 7) = 60

Expand that: x^2 + 7x = 60

Rearragne the equation and factorise it

(x-5)(x+12) = 0

The width cannot be a negative value, so the answer must be 5.

Remember that x was the width and the length is the width add the 7.

So the length is 12 cm.

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(16+5i)+(6-7i)=22-2i}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(16+5i)+(6-7i)=16+5i+6+7i\qquad\text{combine like terms}\\\\=(16+6)+(5i-7i)=22-2i$

the volume v of a right circular cylinder of radius r and heigh h is V = pi r^2 h 1. how is dV/dt related to dr/dt if h is const

laiz [17]

In general, the volume

$V=\pi r^2h$

has total derivative

$\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=\pi\left(2rh\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}+r^2\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}\right)$

If the cylinder's height is kept constant, then $\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}=0$ and we have

$\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=2\pi rh\dfrac{\mathrm dt}{\mathrm dt}$

which is to say, $\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}$ and $\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}$ are directly proportional by a factor equivalent to the lateral surface area of the cylinder ( $2\pi r h$ ).

Meanwhile, if the cylinder's radius is kept fixed, then

$\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=\pi r^2\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}$

since $\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}=0$ . In other words, $\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}$ and $\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}$ are directly proportional by a factor of the surface area of the cylinder's circular face ( $\pi r^2$ ).

Finally, the general case ( $r$ and $h$ not constant), you can see from the total derivative that $\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}$ is affected by both $\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}$ and $\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}$ in combination.
