Answer: dr/dt = 9/(24pi)  cm per minute

9/(24pi) is approximately equal to 0.119366

=============================================

Work Shown:

Given info

dS/dt = 18 cm^2/min is the rate of change of the surface area

r = 6 cm is the radius, from the fact that the diameter is 12 cm

--------

Use the surface area equation given, apply the derivative, plug in the given values and then isolate dr/dt which represents the rate of change for the radius

S = 4*pi*r^2

dS/dt = 2*4*pi*r*dr/dt

dS/dt = 8*pi*r*dr/dt

18 = 8*pi*6*dr/dt

18 = 48*pi*dr/dt

48pi*dr/dt = 18

dr/dt = 18/(48pi)

dr/dt = (9*2)/(24*2pi)

dr/dt = 9/(24pi)

The units are cm per minute, which can be written as cm/min.

A rectangular prism has a height of 4 meters, a surface area of 96 square meters, and a base area of 8 square meters. Calculate
tatyana61 [14]
The perimeter is 56m

H = 4m
Base area =  96m^2

96/4 = 24
Therefore the length is 24m

4m + 24 = 28m
multiplied by 2 is equal to 56m.

Solve the System of<br> Equations. Show your work <br><br> Y=x + 6<br> x + y= -2
Flauer [41]
Substitute first Y for the second Y
So it would be x + x + 6 = -2
Then it would be 2x +6 = -2
Move the 6 over so it would be 2x =-8
Divide by 2 your answer is x = -4

Westkost [7]

Answer:

So in other words, each week he works, he gets an additional $10, to add to his collection of really $75.

Step-by-step explanation:

so, he has $85 in savings, and that he has the opportunity to gain allowance by the following function of 10(x-1).  

total funds(x) = 85 + 10(x-1)  

T(x) = 85 + 10x - 10  

T(x) = 10x + 75
