The height of a certain hill (in feet) is given by h(x, y) = 10 (2xy - 3 x^2 - 4y^2 -18x +28y + 12), where y isthe distance in miles (north), x the distance east of South Hadley, Massachusetts.a.) Where is the top of the hill located? b.) How high is the hill? c.)How steep is the slope (in feet per mile) at a point 1 mile north and one mile east of South Hadley? Inwhat direction is the slope steepest, at that point? d.) Make a contour map and a 3D plot of the area surrounding South Hadley, from 8 miles west to 4 mileseast, and 2 miles south to 8 miles north.

WEB 17. The consumption of natural gas by a company satisfies the empirical equation V= 1.50t + 0.008 00t2, where V is the volume in millions of cubic feet and t the time in months. Express this equation in units of cubic feet and seconds. Put the proper units on the coefficients. As- sume a month is 30.0 days.
1. Write the answers for the following in scientific notation with three significant digits. a. The earth's circumference, measured through the poles, is exactly 40, 000, 000 m (according to an early standard of the meter). What is the radius of the earth, R? R = m. b. The surface area of the earth is given by A = 4 x R². What is the area A? A = m². c. Using the units conversion 1 inch = 2.54 cm, convert the volume V = 302 in³ into a volume in cubic cm (cm³) and in liters. (1 L = 1000 cm³). Show your steps in below! V = cm³ = L.
33. If you are at the top of a tower of height h above the surface of the earth, show that the distance you can see along the surface of the earth is approximately s = v2Rh, where R is the radius of the earth. Hints: See figure. Show that h/R = sec 0 – 1; find two terms of the series for sec 0 = 1/ cos 0, and use s = RO. _Thus show that the distance in miles is approximately v3h/2 with h in feet. Rİ
