The balloon shown above is in the shape of a cylinder with hemispherical ends of the same radius as that of the cylinder. The balloon is being inflated at the rate of 261 cm3/min. At the instant the radius of the cylinder is 3 cm, the volume of the balloon is 144 cm3 and the radius of the cylinder is increasing at the rate of 2 cm/min. (The volume of a cylinder with radius r and height h is r2h, and the 4 volume of a sphere with radius r is r 3 . 3 a) At this instant, what is the height of the cylinder? b) At this instant, how fast is the height of the cylinder increasing? c) How fast would the volume be increasing if the height were increasing at the rate of 1 cm/min?

CALC
Let S denote the set of points with coordinates (x, y) such that 0 x 3 and y 4 = 150 50 x . Find the coordinates of the point(s) of S nearest to the origin. Also, find the coordinates of the point(s) of S farthest from the origin. Justify your answers.
Consider the curve f ( x ) = 9 x 2 on the interval 0 x 3 . a) Estimate the area of between the x-axis and the curve by using a left-hand Riemann Sum of at least 3 rectangles. b) Estimate the area of between the x-axis and the curve by using a right-hand Riemann Sum of at least 3 rectangles. c) Estimate the area of between the x-axis and the curve by using a mid-hand Riemann Sum of at least 3 rectangles. d) Calculate the actual area under the curve using the definition of the integral. Which estimate (left, right or mid) is closest to the actual area?
