Scientists modeled the intensity of the sun, I, as a function of the number of hours since 6:00 a.m., h, using the

MAVERICK [17]

The functions are illustrations of composite functions.

<em>The soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67</em>

The given parameters are:

$\mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}}$ ---- the function for sun intensity

$\mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}}$ -- the function for temperature

At 2:00pm, the value of h (number of hours) is:

$\mathbf{h = 2:00pm - 6:00am}$

$\mathbf{h = 8}$

Substitute 8 for h in $\mathbf{I(h) =\frac{12h - h^2}{36}}$ , to calculate the sun intensity

$\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{12 \times 8 - 8^2}{36}}$

$\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{32}{36}}$

$\mathbf{I(8) =\frac{8}{9}}$

Substitute 8/9 for I in $\mathbf{T(I) =\sqrt{5000I}}$ , to calculate the temperature of the soil

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{5000 \times 8/9}}$

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =\sqrt{4444.44}}$

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =66.67}$

Approximate

$\mathbf{T(8/9) =67}$

Hence, the soil temperature at 2:00pm is 67

A square with side x is changing with time where x(t)=3t+1. What is rate of change of the area of the square when t=2 seconds.

GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Rate of change of the area of the square is 42 units at t = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We note that the area of the square is given by: $A(x) = x^2$ but we aim to find $\frac{dA}{dt}$ . But we can use the chain rule to pull out that dA/dt. Doing so gives us:

$\frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{dA}{dx} \times \frac{dx}{dt}.$

Now, $\frac{dA}{dx} = 2x$ (by the power rule and $\frac{dx}{dt} = 3.$

But since we have "x" and not "t", we want to find what x is when t = 2. Substituting t = 2 gives us x(2) = 3(2) + 1 = 7.

So, finally, we see that:

$\frac{dA}{dt} = 2(7) \times 3 = 14 \times 3 = 42.$
