Answer:

The water rises at a rate of 16/(9π) ft/min or approximately 0.566 ft/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone is:

V = ⅓ π r² h

Using similar triangles, we can relate the radius and height of the water to the radius and height of the tank.

r / h = R / H

r / h = 3 / 12

r = ¼ h

Substitute:

V = ⅓ π (¼ h)² h

V = ¹/₄₈ π h³

Take derivative with respect to time:

dV/dt = ¹/₁₆ π h² dh/dt

Plug in values:

4 = ¹/₁₆ π (6)² dh/dt

dh/dt = 16 / (9π)

dh/dt ≈ 0.566

The water rises at a rate of 16/(9π) ft/min or approximately 0.566 ft/min.

Explain what |-13| means and how to simplify.
poizon [28]

The two bars ( | | ) symbolize absolute value

Absolute value is essentially just making the number given positive.

If the given number is already positive then the absolute value is the same as the original number

|-13| is 13

The absolute value of -13 is 13

Hope this helped!
