Total number of students = 35
Number of male students = 14
% of students that are male =

= 40 %
A = l * w
66 = l * (l - 5)
66 =

-5l
0 =

-5l - 66
l = 11 or 6 check which works.
A = 11 * 6, which fits.
length = 11 miles
width = 5 miles
Answer:
Here we have the function:
S(t) = 500 - 400*t^(-1)
Then the rate of change at the value t, will be:
S'(t) = dS(t)/dt
This differentiation will be:
S'(t) = -400/t^2
Then:
a) the rate of change at t = 1 is:
S'(1) = -400/1^2 = -400
The rate of change after one year is -400
b) t = 10
S'(10) = -400/10^2 = -400/100 = -4
The rate of change after 10 years is -4, it reduced as the years passed, as expected.
Numbers with negative numbers become smaller such as decimals. Numbers with positive exponents become bigger in quantity
