Answer:

The perimeter of square is increasing by 3.76ft/min and then by 3.4 ft/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that area of square is increasing at a rate of 16 sq ft/min.

Given that final perimeter is 36ft

Perimeter of a square = 4 \times side = 36

So, side, a' = 9 ft

We know that area of a square is given by the formula:

A = side^2 = a^2 (If we let side = a units)

Change in area =

a'^2 - a^2\\\Rightarrow 9^2 - a^2 = 16\\\Rightarrow 81 - 16 = a^2\\\Rightarrow a = 8.06\ ft

So, side got changed from 8.06ft to 9 ft.

So, perimeter when side was 8.06 ft:

4 \times 8.06 = 32.24\ ft

Hence, increase in the perimeter when perimeter is 36 ft is = 36 - 32.24 = 3.76 ft

For finding Next increase:

area gets changed from 81 sq ft to 81+16 = 97 sq ft

So, new side = \sqrt{97} ft = 9.85 ft

Next increase in perimeter = 4 (New side - Old side)

= 4 (9.85 - 9)

= 3.4 ft/min

Which value for x completes the conditional relative frequency table by column? 0.17 0.25 0.40 0.85
Alchen [17]

The value of x that completes the conditional relative frequency table by column is 0.85

<h3>How to determine the value of x?</h3>

From the complete question, we have the following column elements

0.15   x     1

Express a sum

0.15 + x = 1

Subtract 0.15 from both sides

x = 0.85

Hence, the value of x that completes the conditional relative frequency table by column is 0.85

Solve for x.<br> A. 3<br> B. 10<br> C. 6<br> D. 1
AURORKA [14]

The values of x is 1 and 6.

According to the statement

we have two tangents which are represented by x+5 and x+1 then

we have to find the value of x to get the perfect value of tangent

so, due to interior values of tangent they are equal to each other but in opposite sign.

But here we have to find the value of x one by one.

It means

Here we take interior value of tangent and exterior value of tangent equal to each other

So, the equations become are written below

X+5= 6 then x = 1

X+1= 7 then x = 6

So, The values of x is 1 and 6.
