2(x+3)= 3x-1
2x+6=3x-1
X=7
Therefore
YM = 7+3= 10
And by definition of midpoint YM=MZ so MZ=10

Mr. Evan is paid $9.20 per hour for the first 40 hours he works in a week he is paid 1.5 times that rate for each hour after tha
faust18 [17]
That is incorrect. The correct answer should be $398.38
First you take 9.2 times 40 and you get $368 which is how much he got paid for the first 40 hours. now he worked 2.25 hours extra so you take 9.2 * 1.5 because he gets 1.5 times more for extra hours. Then you add that to the $368 and you get $398.38

A punch glass is in the shape of a hemisphere with a radius of 5 cm. If the punch is being poured into the glass so that the cha
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

28.27 cm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Though Process:

  • The punch glass (call it bowl to have a shape in mind) is in the shape of a hemisphere
  • the radius r=5cm
  • Punch is being poured into the bowl
  • The height at which the punch is increasing in the bowl is \frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5
  • the exposed area is a circle, (since the bowl is a hemisphere)
  • the radius of this circle can be written as 'a'
  • what is being asked is the rate of change of the exposed area when the height h = 2 cm
  • the rate of change of exposed area can be written as \frac{dA}{dt}.
  • since the exposed area is changing with respect to the height of punch. We can use the chain rule: \frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{dA}{dh} . \frac{dh}{dt}
  • and since A = \pi a^2 the chain rule above can simplified to \frac{da}{dt} = \frac{da}{dh} . \frac{dh}{dt} -- we can call this Eq(1)

Solution:

the area of the exposed circle is

A =\pi a^2

the rate of change of this area can be, (using chain rule)

\frac{dA}{dt} = 2 \pi a \frac{da}{dt} we can call this Eq(2)

what we are really concerned about is how a changes as the punch is being poured into the bowl i.e \frac{da}{dh}

So we need another formula: Using the property of hemispheres and pythagoras theorem, we can use:

r = \frac{a^2 + h^2}{2h}

and rearrage the formula so that a is the subject:

a^2 = 2rh - h^2

now we can derivate a with respect to h to get \frac{da}{dh}

2a \frac{da}{dh} = 2r - 2h

simplify

\frac{da}{dh} = \frac{r-h}{a}

we can put this in Eq(1) in place of \frac{da}{dh}

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{r-h}{a} . \frac{dh}{dt}

and since we know \frac{dh}{dt} = 1.5

\frac{da}{dt} = \frac{(r-h)(1.5)}{a}

and now we use substitute this \frac{da}{dt}. in Eq(2)

\frac{dA}{dt} = 2 \pi a \frac{(r-h)(1.5)}{a}

simplify,

\frac{dA}{dt} = 3 \pi (r-h)

This is the rate of change of area, this is being asked in the quesiton!

Finally, we can put our known values:

r = 5cm

h = 2cm from the question

\frac{dA}{dt} = 3 \pi (5-2)

\frac{dA}{dt} = 9 \pi cm/s// or//\frac{dA}{dt} = 28.27 cm/s
