<h3>
Answer: ds/dt = 11</h3>
================================================
Work Shown:
Before we can use derivatives, we need to find the value of s when (x,y) = (15,20)
s^2 = x^2+y^2
s^2 = 15^2+20^2
s^2 = 225+400
s^2 = 625
s = sqrt(625)
s = 25
-----------
Now we can apply the derivative to both sides to get the following. Don't forget to use the chain rule.
s^2 = x^2 + y^2
d/dt[s^2] = d/dt[x^2 + y^2]
d/dt[s^2] = d/dt[x^2] + d/dt[y^2]
2s*ds/dt = 2x*dx/dt + 2y*dy/dt
2(25)*ds/dt = 2(15)*5 + 2(20)*(10)
50*ds/dt = 150 + 400
50*ds/dt = 550
ds/dt = 550/50
ds/dt = 11
-----------
Side note: The information t = 40 is never used. It's just extra info.
Answer:
110
Step-by-step explanation:
m = 4a + 2c
a = 25, c = 5
m = 4(25) + 2(5)
m = 100 + 10
m = 110 meatballs
