Spring runoff The flow of a small stream is monitored for 90 days between May 1 and August 1. The total water that flows past a gauging station is given by
where V is measured in cubic feet and t is measured in days, with t = 0 corresponding to May 1.
- a. Graph the volume function.
- b. Find the flow rate function V′(t) and graph it. What are the units of the flow rate?
- c. Describe the flow of the stream over the 3-month period. Specifically, when is the flow rate a maximum?

- Start with a circle of radius r=9. Form the two shaded regions pictured below. Let f(6) be the area of the shaded region on the left which has an arc and two straight line sides. Let g(6) be the area of the shaded region on the right which is a right triangle. Note that the areas of these two regions will be functions of 6; r=9 is fixed in the problem. 0 f(0) (a) Find a formula for f(6)= | | (b)Find a formula for g(6)= lim ƒ (6) (c) 80 = lim g (0) (d) 80 = lim (e) [f(8)/g(6)]= 0 g(0)arrow_forwardMy teacher's answer is: 4a⁷b⁶arrow_forwardExplain to me why the answer is: 4a⁷b⁶ if not then defend yoursarrow_forward
