The width of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/sec, while the length increases at 3 cm/sec. At what rate is the area i

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

The area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of $22\ cm^2/s$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The width of a rectangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm/ sec. While the length increases at 3 cm/sec.

To find : At what rate is the area increasing when w = 4 cm and I = 5 cm?

Solution :

The area of the rectangle with length 'l' and width 'w' is given by $A=l w$

Derivative w.r.t 't',

$\frac{dA}{dt}=w\frac{dl}{dt}+l\frac{dw}{dt}$

Now, we have given

$\frac{dl}{dt}=3\ cm/s$

$l=5\ cm$

$\frac{dw}{dt}=2\ cm/s$

$w=4\ cm$

Substitute all the values,

$\frac{dA}{dt}=(4)(3)+(5)(2)$

$\frac{dA}{dt}=12+10$

$\frac{dA}{dt}=22\ cm^2/s$

Therefore, the area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of $22\ cm^2/s$ .

if Dakota earned $15.75 in interest in account A and $28.00 in interest in account B after 21 months. if the simple interest rat

NISA [10]

keeping in mind that 21 months is more than a year, since there are 12 months in a year, then 21 months is really 21/12 years.

$\bf ~~~~~~ \stackrel{\textit{account A}}{\textit{Simple Interest Earned}} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\dotfill &15.75\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill \\ r=rate\to 3\%\to \frac{3}{100}\dotfill &0.03\\ t=years\to \frac{21}{12}\dotfill &\frac{7}{4} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 15.75=P(0.03)\left( \frac{7}{4} \right)\implies \cfrac{15.75}{(0.03)\left( \frac{7}{4} \right)}=P\implies \boxed{300=P}$

$\bf ~~~~~~ \stackrel{\textit{account B}}{\textit{Simple Interest Earned}} \\\\ I = Prt\qquad \begin{cases} I=\textit{interest earned}\dotfill &28\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill \\ r=rate\to 4.9\%\to \frac{4.9}{100}\dotfill &0.049\\ t=years\to \frac{21}{12}\dotfill &\frac{7}{4} \end{cases} \\\\\\ 28=P(0.049)\left( \frac{7}{4} \right)\implies \cfrac{28}{(0.049)\left( \frac{7}{4} \right)}=P\implies \boxed{326.53\approx P}$

so, clearly, you can see who's greater.
