Answer:

The length of rectangular box is increasing at a rate 0.225 meters per hour.                          

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Initial dimensions of rectangular box:

Length,l = 3 m

Width,w = 4 m

Height,h = 2 m

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 9\text{ cubic meters per hour}\\\\\dfrac{dw}{dt} = \dfrac{dh}{dt} = 40\text{ centimeters per hour} =0.4\text{ meters per hour}

We have to find the rate of increase of length.

Volume of cuboid =

V = l\times w\times h

Differentiating we get,

\displaystyle\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{dl}{dt}wh + \frac{dw}{dt}lh +\frac{dh}{dt}lw

Putting values, we get,

9 = \dfrac{dl}{dt}(4)(2) + (0.4)(3)(2) + (0.4)(3)(4)\\\\\dfrac{dl}{dt}(4)(2) = 9 -7.2\\\\\dfrac{dl}{dt}=0.225

Thus, the length of rectangular box is increasing at a rate 0.225 meters per hour.

Answer:

steps below

Step-by-step explanation:

Are you going to solve the value of A or just a proof the equation

cos 2A = cos² A - sin² A

2cos²A-cos2A-1 = 2cos²A - (cos² A - sin² A) - 1 = cos² A + sin² A - 1

2cos²A-cos2A-1 = 1 - 1 = 0

A: 90° or 270° or 450° .....

Has two critical points and three possible interval solutions
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The function f(x)=1−(x+1)

Has 3 critical points x intercept, y intercept

has a critical point and local maximum at c=+1

It would have 3 critical points if the graph showed −2 also as 2 intercepts or curve.

The derivative does not exist when 0 was worked out.

An expression is shown below:
kirza4 [7]

The factored expression is:

3y(x^3 + 4x - 3x^2 - 12)

------------------------

To factor the expression:

  • First, we need to find the greatest common factor of the numeric and symbolic coefficients.
  • Then, we divide each term of the expression by it's gcf.

------------------------

The expression is:

3x^3y + 12xy - 9x^2y - 36y

------------------------

The numeric coefficients are: 3, 12, 9, 36

The gcf of the numeric coefficients is:

3 - 12 - 9 - 36|3

1 - 4 - 3 - 12

The gcf of the numeric coefficients is 3, as 3 is the only number by which 3, 12, 9 and 36 are all divisible.

------------------------

The symbolic coefficients are: x^3y, xy, x^2y, y

The only common term is y, so y is the gcf of the symbolic coefficients.

------------------------

The gcf of the entire expression is the multiplication of the gcfs of the numeric and of the symbolic coefficients, so it is 3y.

Now, to factore the expression:

3x^3y + 12xy - 9x^2y - 36y = 3y(\frac{3x^3y}{3y} + \frac{12xy}{3y} - \frac{9x^2y}{3y} - \frac{36y}{3y}) = 3y(x^3 + 4x - 3x^2 - 12)

The factored expression is:

3y(x^3 + 4x - 3x^2 - 12)
