After college graduation, Mario received employment offers from two companies. The first company offered a yearly salary of $31,

000 with an annual raise of $1,500 and the second company offered a starting salary of $28,500 with an annual raise of $2,000. How many years will it take for the salaries to be the same?

The first thing we must do for this case is to define a variable:
 x: number of years
 y: total salary
 We have then:
 For first company:
 y = 1500x + 31000
 For second company:
 y = 2000x + 28500
 Equaling both equations we have:
 1500x + 31000 = 2000x + 28500
 Clearing x:
 2000x - 1500x = 31000 - 28500
 500x = 2500
 x = 2500/500
 x = 5
 Answer:
 
It will take for the salaries to be the same about:
 
x = 5 years

The volume of a cone of radius r and height h is given by V=πr²h³. If the radius and the height both increase at a constant rate
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

The volume of cone is increasing at a rate 1808.64 cubic cm per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

\dfrac{dr}{dt} = 12\text{ cm per sec}\\\\\dfrac{dh}{dt} = 12\text{ cm per sec}

Volume of cone =

V = \dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h

where r is the radius and h is the height of the cone.

Instant height = 9 cm

Instant radius = 6 cm

Rate of change of volume =

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{d}{dt}(\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h)\\\\\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{\pi}{3}(2r\dfrac{dr}{dt}h + r^2\dfrac{dh}{dt})

Putting values, we get,

\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{\pi}{3}(2(6)(12)(9) + (6)^2(12))\\\\\dfrac{dV}{dt} =1808.64\text{ cubic cm per second}

Thus, the volume of cone is increasing at a rate 1808.64 cubic cm per second.
