A rectangle initially has dimensions 6 cm by 7 cm. All sides begin increasing in length at a rate of 1 cm/s. At what rate is the

area of the rectangle increasing after 18 s? Let A, b, and h be the area, base, and height of a rectangle, respectively. Write an equation relating A, b, and h. Differentiate both sides of the equation with respect to t. dt dt After 18 s, the area of the rectangle is increasing at a rate of

Answer:

  49 cm²/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you what to do.

Write an equation relating A, b, h:

  A = bh . . . . . . the equation for the area of a rectangle

Differentiate with respect to t:

  dA/dt = (db/dt)h + b(dh/dt) . . . . . . . product rule

To find the rate of change after 18 seconds, you need to know the dimensions b and h after 18 seconds. Since each dimension was increasing at the rate of 1 cm/s, it is 18 cm more than it was at the beginning:

At 18 seconds,

  b = 6 cm + 18 cm = 24 cm;

  h = 7 cm + 18 cm = 25 cm.

Of course, db/dt = dh/dt = 1 cm/s. Then the rate of change of area is ...

  dA/dt = (1 cm/s)(25 cm) + (24 cm)(1 cm/s)

  dA/dt = 49 cm²/s

_____

You could write a formula for the area as a function of time and differentiate that:

  A = (6 +t)(7 +t) = 42 + 13t + t²

Then the derivative is ...

  dA/dt = 13 +2t

and when t=18, this is ...

  dA/dt = 13 + 2(18) = 49 . . . . cm²/s

25 scores from all of the students who took the test. She sees that the mean score is 134 with a standard deviation of 6.0547. T
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

WE fail to reject the Null and conclude that ; Standard deviation of test hasn't decreased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : σ = 13

H1 : σ < 13

Using the Chisquare Square statistic :

χ² = (n-1)*s²/σ²

Sample size, n = 25

s² = 6.0547²

σ² = 13²

χ² = (25 - 1)*6.0547² / 13²

χ² = 879.82541016 / 169

χ² = 5.206

The degree of freedom, df = 25 - 1 = 24

The Pvalue(5.206, 24) = 0.99981

Reject H0, if Pvalue < α ;

Since Pvalue > α ; WE fail to reject the Null and conclude that ; Standard deviation of test hasn't decreased.

write the equation of the line that passes through the given points expressed in slope-intercept form. m=2/3, (-4,5)
solniwko [45]

Answer:

y = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{23}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the equation of a line with a point and a slope, use the point-slope form of a linear equation. Substitute m = 2/3 and the point (-4,5) into the equation.

y - y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y - 5 = \frac{2}{3}(x --4)\\y - 5 = \frac{2}{3}(x+4)

Convert to slope intercept form by using the distributive property.

y - 5 = \frac{2}{3}(x+4)\\y - 5 = \frac{2}{3}x +\frac{8}{3}\\y = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{8}{3} + 5\\y = \frac{2}{3}x + \frac{23}{3}

Analysis and observations in these two graphs
professor190 [17]

By critically observing the graph, we can infer and logically deduce the following points:

  • The linear function is given by y = 0.0169x + 32.485.
  • The initial temperature for both data is greater than 32°C.
  • The final temperature for both data is less than 33.5°C.
  • Between 1980 and 2020, the temperature for graph 2 (thick-continuous line)  was constant.
  • Graph 1 (thin-dashed line) is essentially a linear graph.

<h3>What is a graph?</h3>

A graph can be defined as a type of chart that's commonly used to graphically represent data on both the horizontal and vertical lines of a cartesian coordinate, which are the x-axis and y-axis.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function can be defined as a type of function whose equation is graphically represented by a straight line on the cartesian coordinate.

This ultimately implies that, the data of a linear graph are directly proportional and as such, as the value on the x-axis increases or decreases, the values on the y-axis also increases or decreases.

By critically observing the graph which models the changes in temperature over a specific period of time (in years), we can infer and logically deduce the following points:

  • The linear function is given by y = 0.0169x + 32.485.
  • The initial temperature for both data is greater than 32°C.
  • The final temperature for both data is less than 33.5°C.
  • Between 1980 and 2020, the temperature for graph 2 (thick-continuous line)  was constant.
  • Graph 1 (thin-dashed line) is essentially a linear graph.

In conclusion, there are four (4) points of intersection on this graph.
