The rate of change of the volume of a snowball that is melting is proportional to the surface area of the snowball. Suppose the

snowball is perfectly spherical. Then the volume (in centimeters cubed) of a ball of radius r centimeters is 4/3πr3. The surface area is 4πr2. Set up the differential equation for how r is changing. Then, suppose that at time t = 0 minutes, the radius is 10 centimeters. After 5 minutes, the radius is 8 centimeters. At what time t will the snowball be completely melted?

Answer:

The time will be 25 minutes in which snowball be completely melted.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The rate of change of the volume of a snowball that is melting is proportional to the surface area of the snowball. Suppose the snowball is perfectly spherical.

Then the volume (in centimeters cubed) of a ball of radius r centimeters is V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

The surface area is S=4\pi r^2

Set up the differential equation for how r is changing. Then, suppose that at time t = 0 minutes, the radius is 10 centimeters. After 5 minutes, the radius is 8 centimeters.

To find : At what time t will the snowball be completely melted?

Solution :

Using given condition,

\frac{dV}{dt}\propto S

\frac{dV}{dt}=\lambda S ....(1)

V=\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{4}{3}\pi 3r^2\frac{dr}{dt}

Substitute in (1),

\frac{4}{3}\pi 3r^2\frac{dr}{dt}=\lambda 4\pi r^2

\frac{dr}{dt}=\lambda

r=\lambda t+c

Now, t=0 , r=10

So, 10=\lambda(0)+c

c=10

i.e. r=\lambda t+10

After 5 minutes, t=5 , r=8

8=\lambda (5)+10

5\lambda=-2

\lambda=-\frac{2}{5}

The equation form is r=-\frac{2}{5}t+10

The snowball be completely melted means radius became zero.

0=-\frac{2}{5}t+10

\frac{2}{5}t=10

t=\frac{10\times 5}{2}

t=25

The time will be 25 minutes in which snowball be completely melted.

Ethan works in a department store selling clothing. He makes a guaranteed salary of $500 per week, but is paid a commision on to
ElenaW [278]

The total amount of money Ethan made in a week including commission is $812.5

<h3>Total income</h3>

  • Total sales for the week = $1250
  • Base salary = $500
  • Percentage commission = 25%

Amount of commission earned = 25% of $1250

= 25/100 × $1,250

= 0.25 × 1250

= $312.5

Total earnings = Base salary + Amount of commission earned

= $500 + $312.5

= $812.5

Subtract 7x-9 from2x^2-11
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The answer is: 2x^2-7x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

we are asked to subtract 7x-9 from 2x^2-11

so, 2x^2-11-(7x-9)\\=2x^2-11-7x+9\\=2x^2-7x-2.

Hence the desired result is:  2x^2-7x-2.

Madison saves 40% of all that she earns for washing cars. So far she has saved $72 . How much has she earned in all?
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

40% = 72

divide both sides by 40 to find 1%

1% = 1.8

now multiply by 100 to find total amount earned

100% = 180

total earned $180
