(a) The sum of length and width is half the perimeter, so the breadth in terms of length (x) in cm will be
.. breadth = 34 -x


(b) Then the expression for the area (in cm^2) is
.. area = length*breadth
.. 253 = (x)(34 -x)
.. x^2 -34x +253 = 0 . . . . . subtract the right side, eliminate parentheses
.. (x -11)(x -23) = 0 . . . . . . . factor
.. x = 11 or 23

The dimensions of the rectangle are 11 cm by 23 cm.

A cylindrical tank with radius 5 m is being filled with water at a rate of 3 cubic meters per minute. How fast is the height of
sasho [114]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's calculate the volume of the tank per each meter in height.

The volume of a cylinder is πr²h, where h is the height.  

A height of 1 meter in a tank with a radius of 5 meters would hold a volume of:

Vol = (3.14)*(5 meters)^2 *(1 meter)

Vol (m^3) = 78.54 m^3 per 1 meter height.

If the tank were filled at a rate of 3 m^3/min, it would rise at at a rate of:

(78.54 m^3/meter)/(3 m^3/min) = 0.0382 meters/minute [38.2 cm/min
