Answer:
dV = - 5.73*10⁹ m³/s
Step-by-step explanation:
Question: What is the rate of change of the volume of the prism at that instant (in cubic meters per second) ?
A function can be dependent on one or more variables. The change in the function due to a change in one o its variables is given by the functions derivative with respect to that variable. For functions that are composed of products of its variables, we may use the product rule to determine its derivative.
The volume of a square prism with base a and height h is given by
V = a²h
When the base and height are changing, we have
dV = 2ah(da/dt) + a²(dh/dt)
Given
a = 4 Km
h = 9 Km
da/dt = - 7 Km/min
dh/dt = 10 Km/min
we have
dV = 2(4 Km)(9 Km)(- 7 Km/min) + (4 Km)²(10 Km/min)
⇒ dV = - 504 Km³/min + 160 Km³/min = - 344 Km³/min
⇒ dV = - 5.73*10⁹ m³/s
Answer: x=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
the question is incomplete, so I looked for a similar one:
<em>After the release of radioactive material into the atmosphere from a nuclear power plant, the hay was contaminated by iodine 131 ( half-life, 8 days). If it is all right to feed the hay to cows when 10% of the iodine 131 remains, how long did the farmers need to wait to use this hay? </em>
iodine's half life (we are given x, we need to find b):
0.5A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ
x = 8 days
we eliminate A₀ from both sides
0.5 = eᵇ⁸
ln 0.5 = ln eᵇ⁸
-0.69315 = b8
b = -0.69315 / 8 = -0.08664
since the farmers need to wait until only 10% of the iodine remains (we already calculated b, now we need to find x):
0.1A₀ = A₀eᵇˣ
0.1 = eᵇˣ
ln 0.1 = bx
where b = -0.08664
x = ln 0.1 / -0.08664 = -2.302585 / -0.08664 = 26.58 days
1 feet = 12 inches
1 min = 60 s
1 feet/min = 12 in/60 s = 1 in/5 s = 0.2 in/s
The sum of angles is equal to 180 so they are called supplementary angles
