Answer:

  dh/dt ≈ 0.55 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is given by the formula ...

  V = (1/3)πr²h

We have r = h/2, so the volume as a function of height is ...

  V = (1/3)π(h/2)²h = (π/12)h³

Then the rates of change are related by ...

  dV/dt = (π/4)h²·dh/dt

  dh/dt = (4·dV/dt)/(πh²) = 4(35 ft³/min)/(π(9 ft)²)

  dh/dt ≈ 0.55 ft/min

What is the value of x in the equation 1/2x - 3/4 = 3/8 - 5/8
Kitty [74]

The answer

x = 1

step by step

\frac{1}{2} x -  \frac{3}{4}  = \frac{3}{8}  -  \frac{5}{8} \\  \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{3}{8}  -  \frac{5}{8} +  \frac{3}{4}  \\  \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{3}{8}  -  \frac{5}{8} +  \frac{6}{8}  \\  \frac{1}{2}x =   \frac{4}{8}  \\  \frac{1}{2} x =  \frac{1}{2}  \\ x = 1
