Using linear function concepts, it is found that:
a) The initial value is of 3 and the rate of change is of 20.
b) The rate of change means that for <u>each hour, the cost increases by 3 Dhs</u>, while the initial value means that <u>a flat fee of 20 Dhs is paid</u>.
<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>
A linear function is modeled by:
In which:
- m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
- b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and also can be considered as the initial value.
In this problem, the function that gives the charge C for renting a bicycle for h hours is:
Item a:
Comparing to the standard function, we have that:
- The initial value is of 3 and the rate of change is of 20.
Item b:
The rate of change means that for <u>each hour, the cost increases by 3 Dhs</u>, while the initial value means that <u>a flat fee of 20 Dhs is paid</u>.

Lynn is 7, Tobbe is 11.. Go get a Slurpee now
I believe the answer is 1/2
I changed 3 1/2 to an improper fraction (7/2), then I had to find the reciprocal of 7, which is 1/7. I then multiplied 7/2 by 1/7 which gave me 7/14, which I reduced to 1/2.
Hope this answers your question.
<h3>Given</h3>
- a cone of height 0.4 m and diameter 0.3 m
- filling at the rate 0.004 m³/s
- fill height of 0.2 m at the time of interest
<h3>Find</h3>
- the rate of change of fill height at the time of interest
<h3>Solution</h3>
The cone is filled to half its depth at the time of interest, so the surface area of the filled portion will be (1/2)² times the surface area of the top of the cone. The filled portion has an area of
... A = (1/4)(π/4)d² = (π/16)(0.3 m)² = 0.09π/16 m²
This area multiplied by the rate of change of fill height (dh/dt) will give the rate of change of volume.
... (0.09π/16 m²)×dh/dt = dV/dt = 0.004 m³/s
Dividing by the coefficient of dh/dt, we get
... dh/dt = 0.004·16/(0.09π) m/s
... dh/dt = 32/(45π) m/s ≈ 0.22635 m/s
_____
You can also write an equation for the filled volume in terms of the filled height, then differentiate and solve for dh/dt. When you do, you find the relation between rates of change of height and area are as described above. We have taken a "shortcut" based on the knowledge gained from solving it this way. (No arithmetic operations are saved. We only avoid the process of taking the derivative.)
Note that the cone dimensions mean the radius is 3/8 of the height.
V = (1/3)πr²h = (1/3)π(3/8·h)²·h = 3π/64·h³
dV/dt = 9π/64·h²·dh/dt
.004 = 9π/64·0.2²·dh/dt . . . substitute the given values
dh/dt = .004·64/(.04·9·π) = 32/(45π)
<u><em>Answer:</em></u>
Total number of plants = 3t - 15 = 3(t-5) tomato plants
<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>
<u>We are given that:</u>
Erin planted t tomato plants
Leo planted 5 fewer tomato plants than Erin, <u>this means that:</u>
Leo planted = t - 5 tomato plants
Fillip planted 10 fewer tomato plants than Erin, <u>this means that:</u>
Fillip planted = t - 10 tomato plants
Now, we want to find the total number of tomato plants
<u>This means that</u> we will add the number of plants planted by Erin, Leo and Fillip
<u>Therefore:</u>
Total number of plants = t + t - 5 + t - 10
Total number of plants = 3t - 15 = 3(t-5) tomato plants
Hope this helps :)
