At a sand and gravel plant, sand is falling off a conveyor, and onto a conical pile at a rate of 10 cubic feet per minute. The d

iameter of the base of the cone is approximately three times the altitude. At what rate is the height of the pile changing when the pile is 15 feet high?
I know this is a Calc 1 related rates problem,

Answer:

dh/dt=9.82x10^-3 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have that the rate is10 ft³/min. Then:

dV/dt=10

2. The formula for calculate the volume of a cone, is:

V=1/3(πr²h)

"r" is the radius and "h" is the height.

3. The diameter of the base of the cone is approximately 3 times the altitude. Then, the radius is:

r=diameter/2

diameter=3h

r=3h/2

4. When you susbstitute r=3h/2 into the formula V=πr²h/3, you have:

V=1/3(πr²h)

V=1/3(π(3h/2)²(h)

V=1/3(π9h²/4)(h)

V=9πh³/12

5. Therefore:

dV/dt=(9πh²/4)dh/dt

h=12

dV/dt=10

6. When you substitute the values of dV/dt and h into dV/dt=(9π(12)²/4)dh/dt, you have:

dV/dt=(9π(12)²/4)dh/dt

10=(1017.876)

7. Finally, you obtain:

dh/dt=10/1017.876

dh/dt=9.82x10^-3 ft/min

Find the collame of boid of dimension 16cm X 10m x 6cm.​
swat32

Question: Find the volume of cuboid of dimension 16cm X 10cm x 6cm.

Answer: Given Length=16cm, Breadth=10cm, Height=6cm

Using Volume formula for cuboid:-

volume = l \times b \times h

→16 \times 10 \times 6

→960 \: cm^{3}

So, volume of cuboid is <u>9</u><u>6</u><u>0</u><u> </u><u>cm³</u>

Why does a y-intercept not count as a zero?
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

It only counts as a zero when the y-intercept is (0,0).

Step-by-step explanation:

The zeros of a quadratic function are always written as (x,0), while the y-intercept is always written as (0,y). Therefore, in order for a y-intercept to be a zero, it must be (0,0), because the y-coordinate in any zero is 0. At any other time, the y-intercept is not a zero.
