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.

The time it would take to inflate the balloon to approximately two-thirds of its maximum volume is approximately 46.90 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The diameter of  the balloon  = 55 feet

The rate of increase of the radius of the balloon when inflated = 1.5 feet per minute

We have;

dr/dt = 1.5 feet per minute = 1.5 ft/min

V = 4/3·π·r³

The maximum volume of the balloon = 4/3 × 3.14 × 55³ = 696556.67 ft³

When the volume is two-thirds the maximum volume, we have;

2/3 × 696556.67 ft³ = 464371.11 ft³

The value of the radius, r₂ at that point is found as follows;

4/3·π·r₂³ = 464371.11 ft³

r₂³ = 464371.11 ft³ × 3/4 = 348278.33 ft³

348278.333333

r₂ = ∛(348278.33 ft³) ≈ 70.36 ft

The time for the radius to increase to the above length = Length/(Rate of increase of length of the radius)

The time for the radius to increase to the above length ≈ 70.369 ft/(1.5 ft/min) ≈ 46.90 minutes

The time it would take to inflate the balloon to approximately two-thirds of its maximum volume ≈ 46.90 minutes.

step-by-step explanation:

let

we know that

the y-intercept is the y-coordinate of the point when the value of x is equal to zero

so

the y-coordinate of the point a is the y-intercept

the answer part a) is

the value of y-intercept is

part b) find the slope m

we know that

the value of the slope is equal to

substitute the values

therefore

the answer part b) is

the value of the slope is equal to

the general answer is

the slope is

the value of y-intercept is
