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!

Hi love...

The correct answer after solving for d is D=78. That’s a quick answer, but I can give you steps on how to solve.

1. Simplify both sides of the equation

2. Isolate the variable

3. Simplify

Then you’d have the answer!

Please let me know if you need further assistance! Have a jolly evening.

Simplify <br> 3 2/3 - 2 3/4 =
Rasek [7]

Answer: 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To solve this problem you can transform the mixed numbers given in the problem to fractions, as you can see below:

3 2/3=(3*3+2)/3=11/3

2 3/4=(4*2+3)/4=11/4

2. Now you must make the substraction of the fraction:

11/3-11/4=11/12

3. Therefore, the answer is 11/12
