Answer: $10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let adults tickets be denoted by a

Let student tickets be denoted by s

On the first day of tickets sale, there were 10 adult tickets and 11 students tickets sold for a total of $190. This will be:

10a + 11s = 190

The second day, there were a total of $160 worth of tickets, 5 adult tickets and 12 student tickets. This will be:

5a + 12s = 160

We combine both equations

10a + 11s = 190 .......... equation i

5a + 12s = 160 ........... equation ii

Multiply equation i by 5

Multiply equation ii by 10

50a + 55s = 950 ....... equation iii

50a + 120s= 1600 ........ equation iv

Subtract equation iv from iii

50a + 55s = 950

- 50a + 120s= 1600

-65s = -650

65s= 650

Divide both side by 65

s = 10

The price for the student's ticket is $10.

A balloon is blowing up at a constant rate of 9 cubic centimeters per second. When the volume of the balloon is 2048/3 pi cubic

Answer:

$\displaystyle \frac{dr}{dt}\approx 0,0112\ cm/sec$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Rates of Change as Derivatives</u>

If some variable V is a function of another variable r, we can compute the rate of change of one with respect to the other as the first derivative of V, or

$\displaystyle V'=\frac{dV}{dr}$

The volume of a sphere of radius r is

$\displaystyle V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

The volume of the balloon is growing at a rate of $9\ cm^3/sec$ . This can be written as

$\displaystyle \frac{dV}{dt}=9$

We need to compute the rate of change of the radius. Note that both the volume and the radius are functions of time, so we need to use the chain rule. Differentiating the volume with respect to t, we get

$\displaystyle \frac{dV}{dt}=\displaystyle \frac{dV}{dr}\displaystyle \frac{dr}{dt}$

$\displaystyle \frac{dV}{dt}=4\pi r^2 \frac{dr}{dt}$

solving for $\displaystyle \frac{dr}{dt}$

$\displaystyle \frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{\frac{dV}{dt}}{4\pi r^2}$

We need to find the value of r, which can be obtained by using the condition that in that exact time

$\displaystyle V=\frac{2048}{3}\pi\ cm^3$

$\displaystyle \frac{2048}{3}\pi=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$

Simplifying and isolating r

$\displaystyle r^3=512$

$\displaystyle r=\sqrt[3]{512}=8\ cm$

Replacing in the rate of change

$\displaystyle \frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{9}{4\pi 8^2}$

$\displaystyle \frac{dr}{dt}=\frac{9}{256\pi }$

$\displaystyle \frac{dr}{dt}\approx 0,0112\ cm/sec$
