Answer:

The expression 35 - m is used to determine the number of gallons left in the tank after m minutes.Solution:Given that a tank containing 35 gallons of water is leaking at a rate of gallon per minute. Let "m" represent the number of minutes spent Number of gallons left in the tank = initial amount of water present – leaked amount of water

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – number of minutes spent rate of leakage.

Number of gallons of water left = 35 gallons – m minutes 1 gallons per minute Hence, the required expression is 35 – m

A fish tank holds 95 gallons of water and is losing water at a rate of 4 gallons per day. A second fish tank

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer: 95-4x<40+5x

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the amount of hours per day the water is added to the tank and the question is when will the first tank be less than the second tank so the sign would say less than

Tammy got a $100 gift card to Media Mart for her birthday. She decides to use her gift card to buy 3 video games that cost $24 e

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

£28

Step-by-step explanation:

3games cost 24 each so times them by 3

24×3=72

And it's a 100 gift card Tammy is using do subtract the 72 by 100

100-72=28

so Tammy has £28 left

The portion of the parabola y²=4ax above the x-axis, where is form 0 to h is revolved about the x-axis. Show that the surface ar

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

See below for Part A.

Part B)

$\displaystyle h=\Big(\frac{125}{\pi}+27\Big)^\frac{2}{3}-9\approx7.4614$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A)

The parabola given by the equation:

$y^2=4ax$

From 0 to <em>h</em> is revolved about the x-axis.

We can take the principal square root of both sides to acquire our function:

$y=f(x)=\sqrt{4ax}$

Please refer to the attachment below for the sketch.

The area of a surface of revolution is given by:

$\displaystyle S=2\pi\int_{a}^{b}r(x)\sqrt{1+\big[f^\prime(x)]^2} \,dx$

Where <em>r(x)</em> is the distance between <em>f</em> and the axis of revolution.

From the sketch, we can see that the distance between <em>f</em> and the AoR is simply our equation <em>y</em>. Hence:

$r(x)=y(x)=\sqrt{4ax}$

Now, we will need to find f’(x). We know that:

$f(x)=\sqrt{4ax}$

Then by the chain rule, f’(x) is:

$\displaystyle f^\prime(x)=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{4ax}}\cdot4a=\frac{2a}{\sqrt{4ax}}$

For our limits of integration, we are going from 0 to <em>h</em>.

Hence, our integral becomes:

$\displaystyle S=2\pi\int_{0}^{h}(\sqrt{4ax})\sqrt{1+\Big(\frac{2a}{\sqrt{4ax}}\Big)^2}\, dx$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle S=2\pi\int_{0}^{h}\sqrt{4ax}\Big(\sqrt{1+\frac{4a^2}{4ax}}\Big)\,dx$

Combine roots;

$\displaystyle S=2\pi\int_{0}^{h}\sqrt{4ax\Big(1+\frac{4a^2}{4ax}\Big)}\,dx$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle S=2\pi\int_{0}^{h}\sqrt{4ax+4a^2}\, dx$

Integrate. We can consider using u-substitution. We will let:

$u=4ax+4a^2\text{ then } du=4a\, dx$

We also need to change our limits of integration. So:

$u=4a(0)+4a^2=4a^2\text{ and } \\ u=4a(h)+4a^2=4ah+4a^2$

Hence, our new integral is:

$\displaystyle S=2\pi\int_{4a^2}^{4ah+4a^2}\sqrt{u}\, \Big(\frac{1}{4a}\Big)du$

Simplify and integrate:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{\pi}{2a}\Big[\,\frac{2}{3}u^{\frac{3}{2}}\Big|^{4ah+4a^2}_{4a^2}\Big]$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{\pi}{3a}\Big[\, u^\frac{3}{2}\Big|^{4ah+4a^2}_{4a^2}\Big]$

FTC:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{\pi}{3a}\Big[(4ah+4a^2)^\frac{3}{2}-(4a^2)^\frac{3}{2}\Big]$

Simplify each term. For the first term, we have:

$\displaystyle (4ah+4a^2)^\frac{3}{2}$

We can factor out the 4a:

$\displaystyle =(4a)^\frac{3}{2}(h+a)^\frac{3}{2}$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle =8a^\frac{3}{2}(h+a)^\frac{3}{2}$

For the second term, we have:

$\displaystyle (4a^2)^\frac{3}{2}$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle =(2a)^3$

Hence:

$\displaystyle =8a^3$

Thus, our equation becomes:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{\pi}{3a}\Big[8a^\frac{3}{2}(h+a)^\frac{3}{2}-8a^3\Big]$

We can factor out an 8a^(3/2). Hence:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{\pi}{3a}(8a^\frac{3}{2})\Big[(h+a)^\frac{3}{2}-a^\frac{3}{2}\Big]$

Simplify:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{8\pi}{3}\sqrt{a}\Big[(h+a)^\frac{3}{2}-a^\frac{3}{2}\Big]$

Hence, we have verified the surface area generated by the function.

Part B)

We have:

$y^2=36x$

We can rewrite this as:

$y^2=4(9)x$

Hence, a=9.

The surface area is 1000. So, S=1000.

Therefore, with our equation:

$\displaystyle S=\frac{8\pi}{3}\sqrt{a}\Big[(h+a)^\frac{3}{2}-a^\frac{3}{2}\Big]$

We can write:

$\displaystyle 1000=\frac{8\pi}{3}\sqrt{9}\Big[(h+9)^\frac{3}{2}-9^\frac{3}{2}\Big]$

Solve for h. Simplify:

$\displaystyle 1000=8\pi\Big[(h+9)^\frac{3}{2}-27\Big]$

Divide both sides by 8π:

$\displaystyle \frac{125}{\pi}=(h+9)^\frac{3}{2}-27$

Isolate term:

$\displaystyle \frac{125}{\pi}+27=(h+9)^\frac{3}{2}$

Raise both sides to 2/3:

$\displaystyle \Big(\frac{125}{\pi}+27\Big)^\frac{2}{3}=h+9$

Hence, the value of h is:

$\displaystyle h=\Big(\frac{125}{\pi}+27\Big)^\frac{2}{3}-9\approx7.4614$
