For question 1, can't you plug in the 10 for t?
Is t being measured in mins or sec?
All questions answered/ done.
Thanks !

I love Monster♥... for paying attention to the things I say ^^
I can work backwards for you..lol.
I'm pretty sure it's in my textbook...so I'll get back to you soon..
after I walk to my room...and get my book and stop typing

^ lol, I'm using the first edition of Haese and Harris IB Math SL.
LOL...
I think I have a similar question.
I love Monster♥... for paying attention to the things I say ^^
How fast is the water running at the end of 10min? vinstant = -7 999.8 gallons/min
What is the average rate at which the water flows out during the first 10 min? vavg = -10 000 gallons/min
Q(t) = 200(30-t)^2
Q'(t)= 400(30-t)(1) = 12000-400t
plug in t=10
12000-400(10) = 12000-4000 = 8000/s = rate of change
that's what i think i was never good at math though :/
doesn't Q(t) represent how many gallons of water is remaining?
Vf - Vi = 80 000 - 180 000
^ yeah I get it now, negative because wter is decresing.

Edit: ohhoneyy beat me to it.
How fast is the water running at the end of 10min? vinstant = -7 999.8 gallons/min
Vinst = lim(t->0) [f(a + t) - f(a)]/t = lim(t->0) [f(10 + 0.001) - f(10)]/0.001 ......... then just do math
Don't know if you got it yet, but I think Equilateral triangle Area should be (square root 3 s^2 )4 and not cube root?
If you look at half of the equilateral triangle as a right triangle, you'll have the height, 's' as a side of the equilateral triangle and s/2 on the bottom.
then Pythagorean theorem should give you h^2 = s^2 - (s/2)^2
do some algebra and you'll have h = (square root 3 *s)/2
plug it into A = s * h *1/2 (triangle area) and you should get
A = (square root 3 * s^2)/4
you guys are giving me a headache ><
laughter is the best medicine
c) What is the approximate speed of the horse as it passes the 3-furlong marker? 16.9 yards/s, 220yards/13s
d) During which portion of the race is the horse running the fastest? between F9-F10, v=20yards/s
e) accelerating the fastest? F1-F2, calc velocity at each second, you would see that greatest Δv
is +5.9y/s^2
