Answer:

3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

30/60 which is how many minutes are in an hour, gives you .5 miles per minute and .5 x 3 = 1.5miles

Determine, to one decimal place, the length, width & height of the rectangular prism that would have the greatest volume, wi

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The length = The width = The height ≈ 5.8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular pyramid, V = l × w × h

The surface area of the pyramid = 2 × l × h + 2 × w × h + 2 × l × w = 200

∴ l × h + w × h + l × w = 200/2 = 100

We have that the maximum volume is given when the length, width, and height are equal and one length is not a fraction of the other. Therefore, we get;

At maximum volume, l = w = h

∴ l × h + w × h + l × w = 3·l² = 100

l² = 100/3

l = 10/√3

Therefore, the volume, v = l³ = (10/√3)³

The length = The width = The height = 10/√3 cm ≈ 5.8 cm

A rectangle initially has width 7 meters and length 10 meters and is expanding so that the area increases at a rate of 8 square

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

The length of rectangular is increasing at a rate 0.5714 meters per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Initial dimensions of rectangular box:

Length,l = 10 m

Width,w = 7 m

$\dfrac{dA}{dt} = 8\text{ square meters per hour}\\\\\dfrac{dw}{dt} = 40\text{ centimeters per hour} =0.4\text{ meters per hour}$

We have to find the rate of increase of length.

Area of rectangle =

$A = l\times w$

Differentiating we get,

$\displaystyle\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{dl}{dt}w + \frac{dw}{dt}l$

Putting values, we get,

$8 = \dfrac{dl}{dt}(7) + (0.4)(10)\\\\\dfrac{dl}{dt}(7) = 8 -4\\\\\dfrac{dl}{dt} \approx 0.5714$

Thus, the length of rectangular is increasing at a rate 0.5714 meters per hour.
