The volume of a slice from a wedge 2008-10-16
Jeff pose la question :
If I have a wedge shaped object (ie, a triangle of non-specific type extruded along a length) and it is sliced from the two-corner base at one end to the one-point tip at the other, what is the volume of the upper (smaller) part as a percentage of the whole? I hope I have explained it clearly enough. Thanks.

Barbara pose la question :
Suppose that both the radius r and height h of a circular cone change at a rate of 2 cm/s. How fast is the volume of the cone increasing when r = 10 and h = 20?

Concavity and the second derivative 2008-10-15
Christina pose la question :
I'm having trouble solving for a second derivative for the following graphing question.

f(x) = (X^2+2x+4)/2x

using the quotient rule, I found:
f'(x) = (x^2-4)/(2x^2)

however, using the quotient rule again I can't seem to solve it (concavity):
f'''(x)=[(2x)(2x^2)-(x^2-4)(4x)]/[(2x^2)^2]
f''(x)=[(4x^3-(4x^3 -16x)]/4x^4
f''(x)=16x/4x^4
f''(x)=4/x^3

and making the equation equal to zero result in 0=4 which doesn't seem to make sense...

A cone shaped pile 2008-10-10
Nadine pose la question :
I have a pile of wheat in the shape of a cone. I would like to know how much wheat I have. I have found the equation "V=1/3 pie r squared h" , but it dosn't work! The pile is 7 feet high, diameter is 50 feet, circumference is 185 feet. I also measured the slope 19feet. (Probably not needed) You need to know that wheat weighs 60 pounds per bushel, and I would like to know how many bushels I have. Even if I could receive the # of Volume Bushels, I could convert that. Can you help me??

Matthew pose la question :
The pedal and gear relationship of a bicycle is shown. The radii of the gears are r(sub1) = 5 cm and r(sub2)= 12 cm. The radius of the wheel is r(sub3) = 30 cm. How many rotations per minute of the pedal gear will produce a racing cyclist's speed of 60 km per hr. For a diagram: http://bikepedalsgears.weebly.com/
