This is an exponential function : f ( x ) = 2 · 5 ^x
The curve goes trough the points: ( 1, 10 ), ( 2, 50 ), ( 3, 250 ).
The multiplicative rate of change:
( 50 : 10 ) / ( 2 - 1 ) = 5 / 1 = 5
( 250 : 50 ) / ( 3 - 2 ) = 5 / 1 = 5

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

  49 cm²/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you what to do.

Write an equation relating A, b, h:

  A = bh . . . . . . the equation for the area of a rectangle

Differentiate with respect to t:

  dA/dt = (db/dt)h + b(dh/dt) . . . . . . . product rule

To find the rate of change after 18 seconds, you need to know the dimensions b and h after 18 seconds. Since each dimension was increasing at the rate of 1 cm/s, it is 18 cm more than it was at the beginning:

At 18 seconds,

  b = 6 cm + 18 cm = 24 cm;

  h = 7 cm + 18 cm = 25 cm.

Of course, db/dt = dh/dt = 1 cm/s. Then the rate of change of area is ...

  dA/dt = (1 cm/s)(25 cm) + (24 cm)(1 cm/s)

  dA/dt = 49 cm²/s

_____

You could write a formula for the area as a function of time and differentiate that:

  A = (6 +t)(7 +t) = 42 + 13t + t²

Then the derivative is ...

  dA/dt = 13 +2t

and when t=18, this is ...

  dA/dt = 13 + 2(18) = 49 . . . . cm²/s
