1. If the radius of a circular oil spill is expanding at a rate of 0.8mi per day, how fast is the
area changing when the radius of the spill is 1.3 mile? Remember: A=²
Round your answer to 2 decimal places &
be sure to include the units in your answer.
2. If the volume of a spherical weather balloon is expanding at a rate of 65 cubic feet per
minute, how fast is the radius changing when the radius of the balloon is 5.1 feet?
Remember: V=²³/n3. The sides of a mysterious cube are expanding at a rate of 0.64 meter per day, how fast is
the volume of the cube changing when the sides of the cube are 1.58 meter?
Remember: V=S³
Round your answer to 2 decimal places &
be sure to include the units in your answer.
4. A balloon is rising vertically from the ground at a rate of 1.5m/sec from a point 30 meters
from where the observer is standing. How fast is the balloon moving away from the
