Answer:

The rate of decrease is: 43.2mm^3/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

l = 18mm

\frac{dl}{dt} = -0.8mm/min ---- We used minus because the rate is decreasing

Required

Rate of decrease when: l = 18mm

The volume of the cube is:

V = l^3

Differentiate

\frac{dV}{dl} = 3l^2

Make dV the subject

dV = 3l^2 \cdot dl

Divide both sides by dt

\frac{dV}{dt} = 3l^2 \cdot \frac{dl}{dt}

Given that: l = 18mm and \frac{dl}{dt} = -0.8mm/min

\frac{dV}{dt} = 3 * (18mm)^2 * (-0.8mm/min)

\frac{dV}{dt} = 3 * 18 *-0.8mm^3/min

\frac{dV}{dt} = -43.2mm^3/min

<em>Hence, the rate of decrease is: 43.2mm^3/min</em>

On a coordinate grid, point T is at (2, −4) and point S is at (2, 6). The distance (in units) between points T and S is ______.
-BARSIC- [3]
The answer is 10
This is because both points have the same x value, which is 2, which means the distance between them is a straight line. That means that we can simply find the distance between the y values, and -4 to 0 is 4 units, and 0 to 6 is 6 units, so 4 + 6 = 10.

I hope this helps!
