A trough is 8 feet long and has perpendicular cross section in the shape of an isosceles triangle (point down) with base 1 foot

and height 2 feet. The trough is being filled with water at a rate of 1 cubic foot every 5 minutes. How fast is the water level rising whenthe water is 1/2 foot deep?

Answer:

Dh/dt  = 0.082 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

As a perpendicular cross section of the trough is in the shape of an isosceles triangle the trough has a circular cone shape wit base of  1 feet and height     h = 2 feet.

The volume of a circular cone is:

V(c)  = 1/3 * π*r²*h

Then differentiating on both sides of the equation we get:

DV(c)/dt   = 1/3* π*r² * Dh/dt   (1)

We know that DV(c) / dt   is  1 ft³ / 5 min      or     1/5  ft³/min

and  we are were asked how fast is the water rising when the water is 1/2 foot deep. We need to know what is the value of r at that moment

By proportion we know

r/h  ( at the top of the cone  0,5/ 2)   is equal to  r/0.5  when water is 1/2 foot deep

Then      r/h   =   0,5/2   =  r/0.5

r  =  (0,5)*( 0.5) / 2        ⇒   r  =  0,125 ft

Then in equation (1) we got

(1/5) / 1/3* π*r² =  Dh/dt

Dh/dt  = 1/ 5*0.01635

Dh/dt  = 0.082 ft/min

What is the answer for # 24?<br><br>A B C or D
Rainbow [258]

The volume of the space not filled by the sphere is the difference between the volume of a cube with edge length 6 inches and the volume of a sphere with radius 3 inches.

<h3><u>Cube</u></h3>

The volume of a cube of edge length s is

... V = s³

When the edge length is 6 in, the volume is

... V = (6 in)³ = 216 in³

<h3><u>Sphere</u></h3>

The volume of a sphere with radius r is

... V = (4/3)π·r³

When the radius is 3 in, the volume is

... V = (4/3)π·(3 in)³ = 36π in³

<h3><u>Space</u></h3>

Then the volume of the space between the cube and the sphere is

... Vcube - Vsphere = 216 in³ - 36π in³ ≈ 102.9 in³ . . . . corresponding to choice C

19x+15y=-6 changed into slope intercept form.
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

y = - \frac{19}{15} x - \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

19x + 15y = - 6 ( subtract 19x from both sides )

15y = - 19x - 6 ( divide all terms by 15 )

y = - \frac{19}{15} x - \frac{6}{15}, that is

y = - \frac{19}{15} x - \frac{2}{5} ← in slope- intercept form

Let's see which of these best measures the data.
The mean is the average, or the sum of all numbers divided by the total numbers there are.
4.8 + 3 + 2.7 + 4.4 + 4.8 + 9.9 = 29.6
There are 6 numbers total.
29.6/6 = 4.93.
The mean is 4.93.
Let's try our median. The median is the middle number of a sequence listed from least to greatest. I will make the list for you.
2.7, 3, 4.4, 4.8, 4.8, 9.9.
Cross out the smallest number with the greatest number.
3, 4.4, 4.8, 4.8.
4.4, 4.8.
Since we do not have a middle number, we must see what number is in the middle of 4.4, and 4.8. To determine this, we must average. Add 4.4 and 4.8, then divide by 2.
9.2/2 = 4.6.
4.6 is our median.
The mode is the number that appears the most, so let's find the number that is the most frequent.
4.8 is our mode.
The best number that will fit in this to make it work out is 4.6.
The median is your answer, B.)
I hope this helps!
