The altitude of a triangle is increasing at a rate of 1 cm/min while the area of the triangle is increasing at a rate of 2 cm^2/min. At what rate is the base of the triangle changing when the altitude is 10 cm and the area is 120 cm^2?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle is given by:

[tex] A = \frac{1}{2}bh [/tex]   (1)

Where:

b: is the base

h: is the altitude = 10 cm

If we take the derivative of equation (1) as a function of time we have:

[tex] \frac{dA}{dt} = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{db}{dt}h + \frac{dh}{dt}b) [/tex]

We can find the base by solving equation (1) for b:

[tex] b = \frac{2A}{h} = \frac{2*120 cm^{2}}{10 cm} = 24 cm [/tex]

Now, having that dh/dt = 1 cm/min, dA/dt = 2 cm²/min we can find db/dt:

[tex] 2 cm^{2}/min = \frac{1}{2}(\frac{db}{dt}*10 cm + 1 cm/min*24 cm) [/tex]

[tex]\frac{db}{dt} = \frac{2*2 cm^{2}/min - 1 cm/min*24 cm}{10 cm} = -2 cm/min[/tex]    

         

Therefore, the base is decreasing at 2 cm/min.

               

I hope it helps you!

An 8-quart jug of water costs $6.08. What is the price per cup?

Answers

Answer:

$0.19 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how many cups are in 8 quarts.

1 quart is 4 cups, so to find the number of cups, multiply 8 by 4:

8(4)

= 32 cups

Then, to find the price per cup, divide the cost by the number of cups:

6.08/32

= 0.19

So, the price per cup is $0.19 cents

y = 360052

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 3600 * 12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Breakdown of Monthly Budget

Required

Determine the equation that shows minimum earnings in a year

First, we need to get the sum of the given list of budgets:

[tex]Budget = 870 + 550 + 375 + 480 + 400+235+400 + 290[/tex]

[tex]Budget = 3600[/tex]

The are 12months in a a year; So, the yearly budget (y) is:

[tex]Yearly\ Budget = Monthly\ Budget * Duration[/tex]

[tex]Yearly\ Budget = 3600* 12[/tex]

i.e.

[tex]y = 3600 * 12[/tex]

A candy store sells caramels for $9/pound and chocolate for $12/pound. How much more is the cost of 2 pounds of caramel than 1.5 pounds of chocolate? *Show your work*

Answers

Answer:

The caramel is $0 more than the chocolate. In other words, they cost the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have 2 pounds of caramel and caramel costs $9/pound, the cost of 2 pounds of caramel can be found by this equation:

2lbs · $9 = $18

Since we have 1.5 pounds of chocolate and chocolate costs $12/pound, the cost of 1.5 pounds of chocolate can be found by this equation:

1.5lbs · $12 = $18

To find how much bigger the cost of caramel is than that of chocolate, we will subtract the total cost of the chocolate from the total cost of the caramel.

$18 - $18 = $0

Ascending order:

    30 , 30 , 31 , 31 , 32 ,  33 , 35, 36

Median = Average of 4th and 5th term

Now that you've created your hypotheses, it's time to prove them. First look at the sum of two rational numbers. Let's say they are two rational numbers, x and y. Because they're rational, they can be written as a ratio of integers. Let [tex]x=\frac{a}{b}[/tex] and [tex]y=\frac{c}{d}[/tex], where a, b, c and d are integers and b and d do not equal 0. The process for finding the sum x + y in terms of a, b, c and d is shown in the figure below.

Based on the sum and using the closure property of integers, what conclusion can you make about the sum of two rational numbers? Explain your answer.

Answer: The sum of two rational numbers equals a rational number.

Step-by-step explanation: Rational number is defined as a number that can be made by dividing two integers.

Closure Property of Integers states the sum or subtraction of two integers always gives an integer.

Using the definition of rational and expanding the property, we can conclude that the sum of two rational numbers will result in a rational number, as demonstrated in the table below.
