Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 15 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

0.13 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$\frac{dV}{dt}=15ft^3/min$

We have to find the increasing rate of change of height of pile when the pile is 12 ft high.

Let d be the diameter of pile

Height of pile=h

d=h

Radius of pile,r= $\frac{d}{2}=\frac{h}{2}$

Volume of pile= $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^3$

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{4}\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}$

h=12 ft

Substitute the values

$15=\frac{1}{4}\pi(12)^2\frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{15\times 4}{\pi(12)^2}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=0.13ft/min$

6/8 is equivalent to 3/4. How can you use this to help you write 6/8 as a decimal?

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

0.75 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

6/8 is equivalent to 3/4

3 divided by 4 is 0.75

Since 6/8 is equivalent then it is also 0.75

Also 6/8 turn to 3/4 when both the numerator and denominator is divided by 2.

6 divided by 2 is 3

8 divided by 2 is 4

Given the equation:

Alisiya [41]

Answer:

x = 1 and x = $\frac{-4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this equation, a=5, b=-1, c=-4.

Plug these into the quadratic formula:

x = $\frac{1+\sqrt{-1^{2}-(-4)(5)(-4) } }{2(5)}$ and x = $\frac{1-\sqrt{-1^{2}-(-4)(5)(-4) } }{2(5)}$

Now, simplify the equations:

x = $\frac{1+\sqrt{81} }{10}$ = $\frac{1+9}{10}$ = $\frac{10}{10}$ = 1

and

x = $\frac{1-\sqrt{81} }{10}$ = $\frac{1-9}{10}$ = $\frac{-8}{10}$ = $\frac{-4}{5}$
