A spherical hot-air balloon has a diameter of 55 feet. When the balloon is inflated, the radius increases at a rate of 1.5 feet

per minute. Approximately how long does it take to inflate the balloon to Two-thirds of its maximum volume? Use π = 3.14 and V = four-thirds pi r cubed.

Answer:

Total time taken to inflate 2/3 balloon = 18.33 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Diameter = 55 ft

Radius r = 55 / 2 ft = 27.5

Rate of increase radius = 1.5 ft

Find:

Total time taken to inflate 2/3 balloon

Computation:

2/3 volume = [2/3][4/3]πr³

2/3 volume = [2/3][4/3][3.14][27.5]³

2/3 volume = 58,046.3889 (Approx)

2/3 volume = [2/3][4/3]πR³

58,046.3889 = [2/3][4/3][3.14]R³

20,796.875 = R³

R = 27.5 ft

Total time taken to inflate 2/3 balloon = 27.5 / 1.5

Total time taken to inflate 2/3 balloon = 18.33 min

29) Adam’s sister wants to watch her intake of fat per day. Here is a guideline of the recommended daily allowances. Typical val
ziro4ka [17]
Basically all the information in this problem is useless. They included all those numbers to confuse you. If you read throughly you can see that all you need to know is that Adam's sister can only have 70 grams of fat each day and that her dinner will have 48 grams of fat.

To figure this out I use this formula all the time to figure out percentages.
is/of=x/100
Your trying to figure out what is 48 percent of 70 because that's how much Adam's sister is going to eat at dinner. So your is would be 48 and your of is 70. When you substitute those numbers your formula becomes 48/70=x/100. Now you cross multiply and get 70x=4800.All that's left is to divide 70 on both sides. Which gives you 68.57.The final answer is 69 percent.

Find the dimensions of a rectangle with area 512 m2 whose perimeter is as small as possible. (If both values are the same number
Masja [62]

Answer:

<h2>√512 by √512 </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Length the length and breadth of the rectangle be x and y.

Area of the rectangle A = Length * breadth

Perimeter P = 2(Length + Breadth)

A = xy and P = 2(x+y)

If the area of the rectangle is 512m², then 512 = xy

x = 512/y

Substituting x = 512/y into the formula for calculating the perimeter;

P = 2(512/y + y)

P = 1024/y + 2y

To get the value of y, we will set dP/dy to zero and solve.

dP/dy = -1024y⁻² + 2

-1024y⁻² + 2 = 0

-1024y⁻² = -2

512y⁻² = 1

y⁻² = 1/512

1/y² = 1/512

y²  = 512

y = √512 m

On testing for minimum, we must know that the perimeter is at the minimum when y = √512

From xy = 512

x(√512) = 512

x = 512/√512

On rationalizing, x = 512/√512 * √512 /√512

x = 512√512 /512

x = √512 m

Hence, the dimensions of a rectangle is √512 m  by √512 m

Prove that (sec 12A-1)/(sec 6A-1)=tan 12A/tan 3A
adelina 88 [10]

Let x=3A. Recall the following identities,

\cos^2\theta=\dfrac{1+\cos2\theta}2

\sin^2\theta=\dfrac{1-\cos2\theta}2

\sin2\theta=2\sin\theta\cos\theta

Now,

\dfrac{\sec12A-1}{\sec6A-1}=\dfrac{\sec4x-1}{\sec2x-1}

=\dfrac{\cos2x(1-\cos4x)}{\cos4x(1-\cos2x)}

=\dfrac{2\cos2x\sin^22x}{\cos4x(1-\cos2x)}

=\dfrac{2\cos2x\sin^22x(1+\cos2x)}{\cos4x(1-\cos^22x)}=\dfrac{2\cos2x\sin^22x(1+\cos2x)}{\cos4x\sin^22x}=\dfrac{2\cos2x(1+\cos2x)}{\cos4x}

=\dfrac{4\cos2x\cos^2x}{\cos4x}

=\dfrac{4\cos2x\cos^2x\sin4x}{\cos4x\sin4x}=\dfrac{4\cos2x\cos^2x\tan4x}{\sin4x}

=\dfrac{4\cos2x\cos^2x\tan4x}{2\sin2x\cos2x}=\dfrac{2\cos^2x\tan4x}{\sin2x}

=\dfrac{2\cos^2x\tan4x}{2\sin x\cos x}=\dfrac{\cos x\tan4x}{\sin x}

=\dfrac{\tan4x}{\frac{\sin x}{\cos x}}=\dfrac{\tan4x}{\tan x}=\dfrac{\tan12A}{\tan3A}
