Answer:

x=75

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the side of the large triangle.

42 50

------ = ----------

42+63 50+x

42 50

------ = ----------

105 50+x

Using cross products

42(50+x) = 50*(105)

2100+42x = 5250

Subtract 2100 from each side

2100-2100+42x = 5250-2100

42x =3150

Divide by 42

42x/42 = 3150/42

x = 75

Suppose Johnny invests $41,745 into an account, which has been earning interest for many years and he now has a total of $39,974

cupoosta [38]

A negative number wouldn't be reasonable in investments because when you invest you are adding money to something. If you invest you aren't removing anything so there can't be negative numbers.

the volume v of a right circular cylinder of radius r and heigh h is V = pi r^2 h 1. how is dV/dt related to dr/dt if h is const

laiz [17]

In general, the volume

$V=\pi r^2h$

has total derivative

$\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=\pi\left(2rh\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}+r^2\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}\right)$

If the cylinder's height is kept constant, then $\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}=0$ and we have

$\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=2\pi rh\dfrac{\mathrm dt}{\mathrm dt}$

which is to say, $\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}$ and $\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}$ are directly proportional by a factor equivalent to the lateral surface area of the cylinder ( $2\pi r h$ ).

Meanwhile, if the cylinder's radius is kept fixed, then

$\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}=\pi r^2\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}$

since $\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}=0$ . In other words, $\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}$ and $\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}$ are directly proportional by a factor of the surface area of the cylinder's circular face ( $\pi r^2$ ).

Finally, the general case ( $r$ and $h$ not constant), you can see from the total derivative that $\dfrac{\mathrm dV}{\mathrm dt}$ is affected by both $\dfrac{\mathrm dh}{\mathrm dt}$ and $\dfrac{\mathrm dr}{\mathrm dt}$ in combination.
