The expression simplifies to 6x^(28/5)
hope this helps :)
3/4 is the reduced form, also 12/16 is each doubled
Answer: dr/dt = 9/(24pi) cm per minute
9/(24pi) is approximately equal to 0.119366
=============================================
Work Shown:
Given info
dS/dt = 18 cm^2/min is the rate of change of the surface area
r = 6 cm is the radius, from the fact that the diameter is 12 cm
--------
Use the surface area equation given, apply the derivative, plug in the given values and then isolate dr/dt which represents the rate of change for the radius
S = 4*pi*r^2
dS/dt = 2*4*pi*r*dr/dt
dS/dt = 8*pi*r*dr/dt
18 = 8*pi*6*dr/dt
18 = 48*pi*dr/dt
48pi*dr/dt = 18
dr/dt = 18/(48pi)
dr/dt = (9*2)/(24*2pi)
dr/dt = 9/(24pi)
The units are cm per minute, which can be written as cm/min.
