Answer:

The volume is increasing at a rate of 16286 in³/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The volume of a cone is given by:

V = \frac{1}{3}h\pi r^{2}

Where:    

r: is the radius

h: is the height

The rate of change of the volume can be calculated by using the chain rule:

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi}{3}[\frac{dh}{dt}r^{2} + h\frac{d(r^{2})}{dt}]

Since h = 4/3 r we have:

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{\pi}{3}[\frac{d(\frac{4r}{3})}{dt}r^{2} + \frac{4r}{3}\frac{d(r^{2})}{dt}]

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{4\pi}{9}[\frac{dr}{dt}r^{2} + r\frac{d(r^{2})}{dt}]        

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{4\pi}{9}[\frac{dr}{dt}r^{2} + 2r^{2}\frac{dr}{dt}]    (1)    

With:

\frac{dr}{dt} = 3 in/min

r = 3 ft*\frac{12 in}{1 ft} = 36 in

And by entering the above values into equation (1) we have:

\frac{dV}{dt} = \frac{4\pi}{9}[(3 in/min)*(36 in)^{2} + 2*(36 in)^{2}*3 in/min]

\frac{dV}{dt} = 16286 in^{3}/min

Therefore, the volume is increasing at a rate of 16286 in³/min.

I hope it helps you!

How would you reduce the square root of 12. <br><br> Full sentence
Liula [17]

Answer:

3.4

Step-by-step explanation:

I think that you mean "How do you estimate the square root of 12."

1. √12 is between √9 and √16, which are 3 and 4

2. We know that the square root of 12 is between 3 and 4, and we can estimate to the tenth, getting 3.4
