Slope = 2/3 (positive 2/3)
You use the formula Y2-Y1/X2-X1 in order to get the slope

Answer:

4^(-11)

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide powers, subtract the exponents.

4^(-2) / 4^9

-2-9=-11

So, the answer is 4^(-11), which is basically 4 to the eleventh power.

Answer:

$\frac{dh}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2\pi}cm/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

From similar triangles, see diagram in attachment

$\frac{r}{4}=\frac{h}{16}$

We solve for $r$ to obtain,

$r=\frac{h}{4}$

The formula for calculating the volume of a cone is

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2h$

We substitute the value of $r=\frac{h}{4}$ to obtain,

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi (\frac{h}{4})^2h$

This implies that,

$V=\frac{1}{48}\pi h^3$

We now differentiate both sides with respect to $t$ to get,

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{\pi}{16}h^2 \frac{dh}{dt}$

We were given that water is drained out of the tank at a rate of $2cm^3/min$

This implies that $\frac{dV}{dt}=-2cm^3/min$ .

Since we want to determine the rate at which the depth of the water is changing at the instance when the water in the tank is 8cm deep, it means $h=8cm$ .

We substitute this values to obtain,

$-2=\frac{\pi}{16}(8)^2 \frac{dh}{dt}$

$\Rightarrow -2=4\pi \frac{dh}{dt}$

$\Rightarrow -1=2\pi \frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=-\frac{1}{2\pi}$
