From the question, last Monday, a local mail carriers delivered 1,344 pieces of mail and of all the deliveries they made, 1 / 6 were magazines, 1 / 12 were packages, and the rest were letters. The fraction of letters will be:

= 1 - (1/6 + 1/12)

= 1 - (3/12)

= 9/12 = 3/4

We will now multiply 3/4 by 1344 to get the number of letters delivered.

= 3/4 × 1344

= 1008 letters

Let A(t) be the area of a circle with radius r(t), at time t in min. Suppose the radius is changing at the rate of drdt=6 ft/min

mylen [45]

Answer:

The rate of change is $108\pi$ ft^(2)/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a circle is given by the following equation:

$A(t) = \pi r^{2}$

To solve this question, we have to realize the implicit differentiation in function of t. We have two variables, A and r. So

$\frac{dA(t)}{dt} = 2\pi r \frac{dr}{dt}$

We have that:

$\frac{dr}{dt} = 6, r = 9$ .

We want to find $\frac{dA}{dt}$

$\frac{dA(t)}{dt} = 2\pi*9*6$

$\frac{dA}{dt} = 108\pi$

Since the area is in square feet, the rate of change is in ft^(2)/min.

So the rate of change is $108\pi$ ft^(2)/min
