sand is falling at the rate 27 cubic feet per minute onto a conical pile whose radius is always equal to its height. how fast is the height of the pile growing when the height is exactly (a) 3 feet (b) 6 feet (c) 9 feet.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cone is V = (1/3)(area of base)(height).  If the radius is always equal to the height of the cone, then V = (1/3)(πh²)(h), where we have eliminated r.  Shortened, this comes out to V = (1/3)(π)(h³).  

We want to know how fast h is increasing when h = 3 ft.

Taking the derivative dV/dt, we get dV/dt = (1/3)π(3h²)(dh/dt), or, in simpler terms, dV/dt = πh²(dh/dt).  Set this derivative = to 27 ft³/min and set h = 3 ft.

Then 27 ft³/min = π(3 ft)²(dh/dt) and solve for dh/dt:  (3/π) ft/min = dh/dt when h = 3 ft.

C. 3

What is a proportional relationship?

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

If the measures are inverse proportional, the relation is:

y = k/x

A quantity h varies directly with w and inversely with p, hence the quantity h is given by:

h = kw/p

h = 2, w = 4, and p = 6, hence we can solve for the constant k.

2 = 4k/6

4k = 12

k = 3.

Hence option C is correct.

Burger King calories 320Del Taco calories 280
Mcdonalds calories 280
Jack in the box calories 250
Wendy's calories 270

Find the mean number of calories for the hamburgers.
and the median number of calories for the hamburgers

Answers

arrange them from least to greatest form

250 cal., 270 cal., 280 cal., 280 cal., 320 cal.,

Mean = (250+270+280+280+320)/(5)
(5 because there is a total of 5 fast food restaurants' hanburgers)

          = (1400)/(5)
Mean = 280 calories

Median = The number exactly in between,
In midst of these numbers, 280 is in the mid-way
Median = 280 calories

Log 5 plus log 2 equals?

log5 + log2 =

Answers


The sum of logs = the log of the product .

     log(5) + log(2)  =  log(5·2)  =  log(10)

If these are all logs to the base 10, then  log(10) = 1

       log(5) + log(2)  =  1

Let's try it out !

According to my calculator ...

             log(5)  =  0.69897...

             log(2)  =  0.30103...

Log(5) + log(2)  =  0.99999...          yay !        not bad

The solution of the equation log5 + log2 using the properties of Logarithm is log(10) or 1.

Logarithms are used to solve exponential equations by converting them into simpler forms.

A number that represents the power to which a fixed number (the base) must be increased in order to get a specific number is called as logarithm.

The property of logarithms states that:

log(a) + log(b) =  log(ab).

Applying this property, we get:

log5 + log2

= \log(5*2)

= log(10)

Logarithm base 10 (log) gives the power to which 10 must be raised to obtain the given value. So, log(10) represents the exponent required to obtain 10, which is 1.

Thus, the solution of  log5 + log2 is equal to log(10) or 1.

What is the work to this ? 6=-3(x+2)

Answers

♥ To solve this you are going to find x. ♥

♥ X in this case is representing a unknown variable, meaning we are not sure of the number x, and to finish the solution to your problem we have to find x.

♥ So to find x the first step is to simplify both sides of the equation. 

♥ Starting with distribution:

6=(-3)(x)+(-3)(2) \n 6=-3x+-6 \n 6=-3x-6

♥ Now we want to flip the equation. 

-3x-6=6

♥ Our next and almost final step, is to add the number -3 to both sides of our problem. This is going to help us tremendously. 

-3x-6+6=6+6 \n -3x=12

♥ Now our last step before we get our answer is to divide both sides of the problem. In this case we are going to do this:

(-3x)/(-3) = (12)/(-3)

♥ And then because of that we get our final answer of: -4.


♥ x=-4
