I cant figure out the formulas I need and how im going to solve for it

#

I just joined this discord to ask some questions, I'll see if I can help you out though

#

This is my solution

#

so you took the area of a semicircle. Then you got the hours it leaked from that? lost me there

unique crater
#

So basically I took the area of the semicircle, and the hours leaked

#

and I found out the amount the radius expanded in the hours leaked

solemn girder
#

how did you find the hours leaked?

unique crater
#

I got the area of a semicircle and the speed which is leaks

#

so the area of the semicircle is

#

Then i divided it by the rate which is leaks

#

well it came up wrong on my homework, I'm suppose to use implicit differentiation somewhere, but I need the right formulas. Area of a circle, volume of a cylinder, and now area of a semicircle.

#

I think its volume of a cylinder because its a disk

#

Maybe someone with more experience can try, I just saw the question and thought I could answer it, I'd be interested to know why my solution didn't work

solemn girder
#

It has something to do with derivatives
