Answer:

$V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Solid Shape = Cube

Edge = 2 feet

Increment = 5 feet per minute

Required

Determine volume as a function of minute

From the question, we have that the edge of the cube increases in a minute by 5 feet

<em>This implies that,the edge will increase by 5m feet in m minutes;</em>

Hence,

$New\ Edge = 2 + 5m$

Volume of a cube is calculated as thus;

$Volume = Edge^3$

Substitute 2 + 5m for Edge

$Volume = (2 + 5m)^3$

Represent Volume as a function of m

$V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3$

Given that secant theta = Negative StartFraction 37 Over 12 EndFraction, what is the value of cotangent theta, for StartFraction

Iteru [2.4K]

$cot\theta$ $=\frac{12}{35}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$sec\theta =\frac{37}{12}$

⇔ $\frac{1}{cos \theta} =\frac{37}{12}$

⇔ $cos \theta = \frac{12}{37}$

we know that

$sin \theta = \sqrt{1-cos^2\theta}$

$sin\theta =\sqrt{1-(\frac{12}{37})^2 }$

$sin\theta=\sqrt{\frac{1225}{1369} }$

$sin\theta = \frac{35}{37}$

Therefore $cot\theta =\frac{cos\theta}{sin\theta}$ $=\frac{\frac{12}{37} }{\frac{35}{37} }$ $=\frac{12}{35}$ , for $\frac{\pi}{2}$

What is the circumference of circle p ? Express in terms of pie

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

The circumference of a circle is calculated using the following equation:

$C= \pi d$

Where d is equal to the diameter (the length of a straight line from one side of the circle to the other side).

We know that the diameter of the circle given (also known as AB) is equal to 20 cm.

We can then plug this into the equation and solve for the circumference:

$C= \pi (20)$

Since the question asks for the answer to be in terms of $\pi$ , this is as far as we need to go. So the circumference of the circle is: $20 \pi$ or D.

Cheetahs are the fastest animals on four legs. They are capable of running at two different speeds. In a sprint, they can run 74

Umnica [9.8K]

sprints: 1/8 of 74 1/2 = 74.5 divided by 8=9.3125

Hunts: 3/4 of 57 3/4= 57.75 divided by .75=77

9.3125 + 77=86.3125 86.3125 divided by 2= 43.156 mph average speed
