    Derivatives Question - temperature as a funtion of time

    Derivatives Question -- temperature as a funtion of time 1. When a certain object is placed in an oven at 540°C, its temperature T(t) rises according to the equation T(t) = 540(1 – e–0.1t), where tis the elapsed time (in minutes). What is the temperature after 10 minutes and how quickly is it...

    Couple multiple choice: Confirmation needed

    Ok, from now on i'll post one question at a time. I didn't get what you really mean for #5 and 6. They both looked true to me.. can you clear it, are they true or false. And for 9b. I think leaving the answer like -h/2(2+h) doesn't seem right, my teacher also said that it is close but still...

    LINES AND PLANES: needs checking

    NEED CORRECTION, also this . means dot multiplication. My teacher comments: #6) you've made some errors (-2 marks) #8) correct, they intersect at a point, but you need to find the point like you did in #7 for full marks (-3 marks) 6.Determine the intersection, if any, of the planes...

    1. A 1000 L tank is draining such that the volume V of water remaining in the tank after t minutes is v=1000(1-t/60)2. Find the rate at which the water is flowing out of the tank after 10 min. Calculate dV/dt using chain rule u = 1 - t/60: u = 1 - t/60 ==> du/dt = -1/60 V = 1000u^2 ==> dV/du =...

    What is the inverse of the function ƒ(x) = ex?

    2 very quick questions?? help needed asap 1. What is the inverse of the function ƒ(x) = ex? I think its 0? what do you guys think. 2. What is the lim (e^(x+h) - e^x)/h This one i tried and got a really weird answer can someone just give me just the answer??
