An ice cube is melting, and the lengths of its sides are decreasing at a rate of 0.8 millimeters per minute At what rate is the volume of the ice cube decreasing when the lengths of the sides of the cube are equal to 18 millimeters? Give your answer correct to the nearest cubic millimeter per minute. Rate of decrease: millimeters3 per minute.

The rate of decrease is:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

---- We used minus because the rate is decreasing

Required

Rate of decrease when:

The volume of the cube is:

Differentiate

Make dV the subject

Divide both sides by dt

Given that: and

Hence, the rate of decrease is: 43.2mm^3/min

for finding the midpoint of any given 2 pair of points simply add the respective x coordinates with other x coordinate and the y coordinate with other y coordinate and divide them by 2

in your question it will be :

(3+1)/2 for the x coordinate of mid point i.e 2

[8+(-4)]/2 for the y coordinate of midpoint i.e 2

so coordinates of mid point of points (3,8) and (1,-4) will be (2,2)

step-by-step explanation:

use pothagarean therom

a^2+b^2=c^2 so first ac

acm is a right triangle because c= 90°

and am (the hypotenuse or c) =16+9 =25

but there is not enough info we need another angle or side length
