If the volume of the expanding cube is increasing at the rate 24 cm3 / min , how fast is its surface area increasing when the surface area is 216 cm2 ?​

16 cm^2/min

Step-by-step explanation:

dV/dt=24

V=a^3, differentiate with respect to t

dV/dt=3a^2*da/dt, a^2*da/dt=8

S=6a^2, 216=6a^2. a=6. da/dt=(8/36)

dS/dt=12*a*da/dt=12*(8/6)=16 cm^2/min

d. 24+-0.114

step-by-step explanation:

the question requires us to calculate the approximate 95% confidence interval for the mean number of ounces of ketchup per bottle in the sample given the following statistics;

sample mean = 24

standard deviation, σ = 0.4

sample size , n = 49

the confidence interval for a population mean is calculated using the formula;

sample mean ± z-score*(σ/sqrt(n))

the z-score associated with a 95% confidence interval, from the standard normal tables, is;

1.96

substituting these values into the formula;

24 ± 1.96*(0.4/7)

= 24 ± 0.112

from the alternatives given, choice d is closest to the above expression;
