A) Volume = (1/12)pi*h^3, with height = 5cm.
<span>b) You should be able to differentiate V = (1/12)pi*h^3 with respect to h, and you were given dh/dt = -0.3 cm/hr.

does that make sense?
To get the points at which the two boats meet we need to find the equations that model their movement:
Boat A:
vertex form of the equation is given by:
f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k
where:
(h,k) is the vertex, thus plugging our values we shall have:
f(x)=a(x-0)^2+5
f(x)=ax^2+5
when x=-10, y=0 thus
0=100a+5
a=-1/20
thus the equation is:
f(x)=-1/20x^2+5
Boat B
slope=(4-0)/(10+10)=4/20=1/5
thus the equation is:
1/5(x-10)=y-4
y=1/5x+2
thus the points where they met will be at:
1/5x+2=-1/20x^2+5
solving for x we get:
x=-10 or x=6
when x=-10, y=0
when x=6, y=3.2
Answer is (6,3.2)
There is a missing graph in the problem given. However, we can simply solve the equation using the given data.
Items to be sold: scarves and hats. Minimum of 20 items sold in all.
Scarves sell for 10 each and hats sell for 20 each. Must sell at least 300 worth of merchandise to make profit.
Let s represent scarves and h represent hats.
10s + 20h <u>></u> 300
s + h <u>></u> 20
We use inequality because the problem states "at least".
s + h = 20
10s + 20h = 300
s = 20 - h
10(20-h) + 20h = 300
200 - 10h + 20h = 300
10h = 300 - 200
10h = 100
h = 100/10
h = 10
s = 20 - h
s = 20 - 10
s = 10
s + h <u>></u> 20
10 + 10 <u>></u> 20
10s + 20h <u>></u> 300
10(10) + 20(10) <u>></u> 300
100 + 200 <u>></u> 300
545,999 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand is 546,000.
