If  `d = 6t^2`, what is a possible value of  `t`  when  `d = 2400`?

  1. `0.05`
  2. `20`
  3. `120`
  4. `400`

`B`

Show Worked Solution
`d` `= 6t^2`
`t^2` `= d/6`
`t` `= +- sqrt(d/6)`

 
`text(When)\ \ d = 2400:`

`t` `= +- sqrt(2400/6)`
  `= +- 20`

 
`=> B`

`V` `= 4/3 pi r^3`
`3V` `= 4 pi r^3`
`r^3` `= (3V)/(4 pi)`

Which of the following correctly expresses  \(r\)  as the subject of  \(V=\pi r^2+x\) ?

  1. \(r=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{V}{\pi}}-x\)
  2. \(r=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{V}{\pi}-x}\)
  3. \(r=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{V-x}{\pi}}\)
  4. \(r=\pm\dfrac{\sqrt{V-x}}{\pi}\)

\(C\)

Show Worked Solution
\(V\) \(=\pi r^2+x\)
\(\pi r^2\) \(=V-x\)
\(r^2\) \(=\dfrac{V-x}{\pi}\)
\(\therefore\ r\) \(=\pm\sqrt{\dfrac{V-x}{\pi}}\)

\(\Rightarrow C\)
