A village wishes to measure the quantity of water that is piped to a factory during a typical morning. A gauge on the water line

gives the flow rate (in cubic meters per hour) at any instant. The flow rate is about 100 m3/hr at 6 am and increases steadily to about 280 m3/hr at 9 am. Using only this information, give your best estimate of the total volume of water used by the factory between 6 am and 9 am.

Answer:

570 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of water is the product of flow rate of water and the time taken. We are to get the volume of water used between 6 am and 9 am, that is for 3 hours (9 - 6).

We are given the flow rate at 6 am and the flow rate at 9 am, but this flow rate changes between 6 am and 9 am. To get the estimate of the water used, Let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 6 am throughout, hence:

V_L= 100 m^3/h * 3h=300\ m^3

Also, let us assume that it flows at the same flow rate as it was at 9 am throughout, hence:

V_R= 280 m^3/h * 3h=840\ m^3

To get the best estimate of the total volume, let us find the average of the two values, hence:

Volume=\frac{V_L+V_R}{2} =\frac{300+840}{2}=570\ m^3

How are the coordinates of the extreme value and the equation from part B in the form y=(x-h)^2-c related.
True [87]

The extreme value of y = (x - h)² - c is the vertex of the equation.

<h3>What are extreme values of a function?</h3>

The extreme values of a function are either the maximum or minimum values of the function.

<h3>The equation of a parabola in vertex form</h3>

The equation of a parabola in vertex form with vertex (h', k) is given by

y = a(x - h')² + k and its extreme values are

  • if a > 0  (h', k) is a minimum point and
  • if a < 0 (h', k) is a maximum point.

Since y = (x - h)² - c is the equation of a parabola in vertex form, comparing with y = a(x - h')² + k,

  • h = h'
  • -c = k and
  • a = 1.

So, the cooordinates of the vertex of y = (x - h)² - c is (h, -c).

Now, since a = 1 > 0, (h, -c) is a minimum point.

So, the extreme value of y = (x - h)² - c is the vertex of the equation.
