Answer:

0.625 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale factor:

k = 1/20000

When applied to the area consider k² as a scale factor.

The actual area:

2.5 hectares = 25000 m² = 25000*100² cm² = 250000000 cm²

The area on the map:

250000000 * (1/20000)² = 0.625 cm²

Daniel watches one hour of television for every three hours of homework he does each week. If you did 15 hours of homework last

Hey if you like my answer please give me the brainliest answer :)

Ok so we have a ratio of 1:3 here. (1 is for the hour of tv and 3 is for hours of homework)

3 can go into 15 (hours of homework last week) 5 times. That means we must multiply 3 by 5 to get 15 so that we can fit the ratio to last week. Because we did that, we have to multiply 1 by 5 as well.

1 × 5 = 5 hours of homework!

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 20 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap

Answer:

0.25 feet per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 20 ft3/min. Since we are told that the shape formed is a cone, the rate of change of the volume of the cone.

$\dfrac{dV}{dt}=20$ ft^3/min$

$\text{Volume of a cone}=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h$

Since base diameter = Height of the Cone

Radius of the Cone = h/2

Therefore,

$\text{Volume of the cone}=\dfrac{\pi h}{3} (\dfrac{h}{2}) ^2 \\V=\dfrac{\pi h^3}{12}$

$\text{Rate of Change of the Volume}, \dfrac{dV}{dt}=\dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}$

Therefore: $\dfrac{3\pi h^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=20$

We want to determine how fast is the height of the pile is increasing when the pile is 10 feet high.

$h=10$ feet$\\\\\dfrac{3\pi *10^2}{12}\dfrac{dh}{dt}=20\\25\pi \dfrac{dh}{dt}=20\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}= \dfrac{20}{25\pi}\\ \dfrac{dh}{dt}=0.25$ feet per minute (to two decimal places.)$
