Part a· 3 steps

  1. Set up the differential equation based on the given information.

    The rate of change of temperature XX with respect to time tt is proportional to XX. Since it's cooling, the constant of proportionality will be negative.

    dXdt=−kX\frac{dX}{dt} = -kX

    where kk is a positive constant.

  2. Separate variables and integrate.

    1X dX=−k dt\frac{1}{X}\,dX = -k\,dt ∫1X dX=∫−k dt\int \frac{1}{X}\,dX = \int -k\,dt ln⁡∣X∣=−kt+C1\ln|X| = -kt + C_1

    Exponentiate both sides:

    ∣X∣=e−kt+C1=eC1e−kt|X| = e^{-kt + C_1} = e^{C_1}e^{-kt}

    Let A=±eC1A = \pm e^{C_1}. Since temperature XX is positive, X=Ae−ktX = Ae^{-kt}.

  3. Apply the initial condition.

    At t=0t=0, X=82∘CX=82^\circ C.

    82=Ae−k(0)82 = Ae^{-k(0)} 82=A⋅182 = A \cdot 1 A=82A = 82

    Therefore, the equation for the temperature is:

    X=82e−kt\boxed{X = 82e^{-kt}}

Part b

1.8 minutes1.8 \text{ minutes}

  1. Use the given condition (X=42∘CX=42^\circ C when t=10t=10 minutes) to find the value of kk.

    42=82e−k(10)42 = 82e^{-k(10)} 4282=e−10k\frac{42}{82} = e^{-10k} 2141=e−10k\frac{21}{41} = e^{-10k}

    Take the natural logarithm of both sides:

    ln⁡(2141)=−10k\ln\left(\frac{21}{41}\right) = -10k k=−110ln⁡(2141)=110ln⁡(4121)k = -\frac{1}{10}\ln\left(\frac{21}{41}\right) = \frac{1}{10}\ln\left(\frac{41}{21}\right) k≈110ln⁡(1.95238)≈110(0.66890)≈0.066890k \approx \frac{1}{10} \ln(1.95238) \approx \frac{1}{10} (0.66890) \approx 0.066890
  2. Find the time t1t_1 when the temperature X=37∘CX = 37^\circ C.

    37=82e−kt137 = 82e^{-kt_1} 3782=e−kt1\frac{37}{82} = e^{-kt_1} ln⁡(3782)=−kt1\ln\left(\frac{37}{82}\right) = -kt_1 t1=−1kln⁡(3782)=1kln⁡(8237)t_1 = -\frac{1}{k}\ln\left(\frac{37}{82}\right) = \frac{1}{k}\ln\left(\frac{82}{37}\right)

    Substitute the value of kk:

    t1=1110ln⁡(4121)ln⁡(8237)=10ln⁡(8237)ln⁡(4121)t_1 = \frac{1}{\frac{1}{10}\ln\left(\frac{41}{21}\right)}\ln\left(\frac{82}{37}\right) = 10 \frac{\ln\left(\frac{82}{37}\right)}{\ln\left(\frac{41}{21}\right)} t1≈10ln⁡(2.216216)ln⁡(1.952381)≈100.791340.66890≈10×1.1829≈11.829 minutest_1 \approx 10 \frac{\ln(2.216216)}{\ln(1.952381)} \approx 10 \frac{0.79134}{0.66890} \approx 10 \times 1.1829 \approx 11.829 \text{ minutes}
  3. Calculate how much longer it will take.

    The time elapsed after t=10t=10 minutes is t1−10t_1 - 10.

    Time longer=11.829−10=1.829 minutes\text{Time longer} = 11.829 - 10 = 1.829 \text{ minutes}

    Rounding to 2 significant figures:

    Time longer=1.8 minutes\text{Time longer} = \boxed{1.8 \text{ minutes}}

Part c(i)

66∘C66^\circ C

  1. Estimate the temperature of the metal after t=3.2t=3.2 minutes using X=82e−ktX = 82e^{-kt}.

    Using k≈0.066890k \approx 0.066890:

    X=82e−0.066890×3.2X = 82e^{-0.066890 \times 3.2} X=82e−0.214048X = 82e^{-0.214048} X≈82×0.80730X \approx 82 \times 0.80730 X≈66.1986X \approx 66.1986

    Rounding to 2 significant figures:

    X≈66∘CX \approx \boxed{66^\circ C}

Part c(ii)

The ironsmith heats the metal to make it malleable (easy to shape) and ductile, allowing it to be forged into hoes and axes.

Part d

y21−xy\frac{y^2}{1 - xy}

  1. Differentiate the given equation implicitly with respect to xx.

    Given ln⁡y=xy\ln y = xy.
    Differentiate both sides:

    ddx(ln⁡y)=ddx(xy)\frac{d}{dx}(\ln y) = \frac{d}{dx}(xy)

    Using the chain rule for ln⁡y\ln y and the product rule for xyxy:

    1ydydx=(1)y+xdydx\frac{1}{y}\frac{dy}{dx} = (1)y + x\frac{dy}{dx} 1ydydx=y+xdydx\frac{1}{y}\frac{dy}{dx} = y + x\frac{dy}{dx}
  2. Rearrange the equation to solve for dydx\frac{dy}{dx}.

    1ydydx−xdydx=y\frac{1}{y}\frac{dy}{dx} - x\frac{dy}{dx} = y

    Factor out dydx\frac{dy}{dx}:

    dydx(1y−x)=y\frac{dy}{dx}\left(\frac{1}{y} - x\right) = y

    Combine terms inside the parenthesis:

    dydx(1−xyy)=y\frac{dy}{dx}\left(\frac{1 - xy}{y}\right) = y

    Multiply both sides by y1−xy\frac{y}{1 - xy}:

    dydx=y⋅y1−xy\frac{dy}{dx} = y \cdot \frac{y}{1 - xy} dydx=y21−xy\frac{dy}{dx} = \boxed{\frac{y^2}{1 - xy}}
