Micheal has 40ft of fencing for the rectangular dog run. So the perimeter of the dog run is 40ft.
Perimeter=40ft
The perimeter of a rectangle is:
P=2l+2w
Since we know the length is 5 and the perimeter is 40, we can solve for the width.
P=2l+2w
40=2*(5)+2w
40=10+2w
subtract 10 from both sides
30=2w
divide both sides by 2
15=w
The width of the fence is 15feet.
Answer:
a) he rate of change of the volume of a snowball (due to melting) is proportional to the square of the volume at time t. Initially, the snowball has a volume of 900 cm3
and V(0) = 900
where A is a real constant, it appears because it says that the change i volume (dV/dt) is "proportional" to
. Furthermore, we should assume that A is a negative number, because the volume of the snowball will decrease as the time pasese by.
(b) For an insect moving along some path, the velocity at time t is proportional to the square root of its position.

Here again appears a constant B for the "proportional" part. And i wrote the velocity as
"the rate of change of the position with respect to te time".
