Answer:

The amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the Soybean Meal has 46% CP and Oats has 12% CP.

The total amount of ration is 900 lbs of 35% CP.

Let x pounds of Soyabean has been used, so,

the amount of Oats = 900-x lbs.

The CP amount in 900 lbs mixture will be equal to the sum of CP amounts in x lbs Soyabean and 900-x lbs Oats, i.e

35% of 900 = 46% of x + 12% of (900-x)

\Rightarrow \frac{35}{100}\times 900=\frac{46}{100}\times x+\frac{12}{100}\times (900-x)

\Rightarrow  35\times 900 = 46x + 12\times 900 - 12 x

\Rightarrow 34x= 900(35-12)

\Rightarrow x = (900\times 23)/34

\Rightarrow x = 608.82 lbs.

So, the amount of Soyabean = 608.82 pounds.

The amount of Oats  = 900-608.82 = 291.18 pounds.

the area of a square whose sides have length x cm is increasing at the rate of 12cm²/s. how fast is the length of a side increas
katovenus [111]

Answer:

0.67 cm/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a square is given by :

A=x^2 ....(1)

Where

x is the side of a square

\dfrac{dA}{dt}=12\ cm^2/s

Differentiating equation (1) wrt t.

\dfrac{dA}{dt}=2x\times \dfrac{dx}{dt}

When A = 81cm²​, the side of the square, x = 9 cm

Put all the values,

12=2\times 9\times \dfrac{dx}{dt}\\\\\dfrac{dx}{dt}=\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\\dfrac{dx}{dt}=0.67\ cm/s

So, the length of the side of a square is changing at the rate of 0.67 cm/s.
