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.

Kinda want to cry right now.. Someone PLEASE help me.. I know there is someone out there smart enough.... 25 points and Brainlie
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

a) Infinite solutions

b) No solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

First, know the following:

If the graphs intersect, there's only one solution.

If the graphs are parallel, there are no solutions.

If the graphs are the exact same line, there are infinite solutions.

For a):

Change the first equation into a linear one.

  • 2x+3y=6
  • 3y=-2x+6
  • y=-\frac{2}{3} x+2

Change the second equation into a linear one.

  • 4x+6y=12
  • 6y=-4x+12
  • y=-\frac{2}{3} x+2

Boom. You have two equations which are equal. As stated above, graphs on the exact same line have infinite solutions.

For b)

They are already in linear form so hurray.

y=\frac{1}{5} x+2\\y=\frac{1}{5} x+10\\

These lines are parallel since they have the SAME slope but a different y-intercept. As stated above, parallel lines have no solutions.

Order the group of parabolas from widest to narrowest.
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2,\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x^2,\ y=\dfrac{3}{2}x^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola: y = ax²

The larger the value of |a|, the narrower the parabola.

We have the following coefficients a:

\left|\dfrac{1}{4}\right|=\dfrac{1}{4},\ \left|-\dfrac{1}{2}\right|=\dfrac{1}{2},\ \left|\dfrac{3}{2}\right|=\dfrac{3}{2},

We arrange the coefficients from the smallest to the largest:

\dfrac{1}{4}\

Therefore you have the answer:

y=\dfrac{1}{4}x^2,\ y=-\dfrac{1}{2}x^2,\ y=\dfrac{3}{2}x^2
