Answer:

The answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer would be B because dividing 250,000 would get you 25,000 which would be 10% of the total cost. Dividing by 10 again would get you 2500 which would be 1% of the total cost. Divide 2500 by 2 and you'll get 1250. 1250 + 2500 would be 1.5% of the total cost.

Answer:

a. 0.588

b. 0.0722

c. 4.576 sqft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b and h denote the base and height as indicated in the diagram. By pythagoras theorem, $h^2 + b^2 = 16^2 = 256 \dotsc\;(1)$ because it is a right angle triangle.

It is given that $\frac{db}{dt} = 1$

Now differentiate (1) with respect to t (time) :

$\displaystyle{2h\frac{dh}{dt} + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 0 \implies \frac{dh}{dt} = -\frac{b}{h} \frac{db}{dt}}$

$\displaystyle{=-\frac{b}{\sqrt{256 - b^2}} \frac{db}{dt} = -\frac{8}{13.856} \times 1 = -0.588}$

The minus sign indicates that the value of h is actually decreasing. The required answer is 0.588.

b. From the diagram, infer that $16 \sin{\theta} = b$ . When b = 8, then $\theta = \arcsin{0.5} = \ang{30}$ .

Differentiate the above equation w.r.t t

$\displaystyle{16 \cos{\theta} \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{db}{dt} \implies \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{16 \cos{\theta}} = \frac{1}{13.856} = \mathbf{0.0722}}$
