Answer:

Should be 39 years.

there is 12 inches in a foot. and if the tree grows 4 inches every year, then in 3 years the tree would be 1 foot. 13 x 3 = 39, thus proving that in 39 years, it will be 13 feet tall. I may be wrong but this sounds correct.

Answer:

39 yr

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert "4 inches per year" to "feet per year:"

4 inches 1 ft

-------------- * --------- = (1/3) ft/yr

1 year 12 in

Now we know the growth rate. The time required to reach a certain height is

3 yr

-------- * 13 ft = 39 yr

1 ft

Answer:

5.0 ft-lbf

Step-by-step explanation:

The force is

$F = \dfrac{9}{6^x}$

This force is not a constant force. For a non-constant force, the work done, <em>W</em>, is

$W = \int\limits^{x_2}_{x_1} {F(x)} \, dx$

with $x_1$ and $x_2$ the initial and final displacements respectively.

From the question, $x_1 =0$ and $x_2 = 12$ .

Then

$W = \int\limits^{12}_0 {\dfrac{9}{6^x}} \, dx$

Evaluating the indefinite integral,

$\int\limits \dfrac{9}{6^x} \, dx =9 \int\limits\!\left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^x \, dx$

From the rules of integration,

$\int\limits a^x\, dx = \dfrac{a^x}{\ln a}$

$9 \int\limits \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^x \, dx = 9\times\dfrac{(1/6)^x}{\ln(1/6)} = -5.0229\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^x$

Returning the limits,

$\left.-5.0229\left(\dfrac{1}{6}\right)^x\right|^{12}_0 = -5.0229(0.1667^{12} - 0.1667^0) = 5.0229 \approx 5.0 \text{ ft-lbf}$
