2) It takes 505050 minutes for Joe to notice that his cola bottling machine has sprung a leak. Joe is able to stop the leak in 1010 minutes. The graph below shows the rate at which cola leaks from the machine as a function of time. How much cola does Joe lose in this bottling disaster?

300

200

490

100

The graph shows that the rate of cola leakage is constant at 50 units per minute for the first 1000 minutes, and then it suddenly increases to 100 units per minute for the next 10 minutes until Joe stops the leak. To find out how much cola Joe loses, we need to calculate the total amount of cola leaked during these 1010 minutes. For the first 1000 minutes, Joe loses 50 units per minute, which totals to 50 * 1000 = 50000 units. For the next 10 minutes, the rate is 100 units per minute, resulting in a loss of 100 * 10 = 1000 units. Therefore, Joe loses a total of 50000 + 1000 = 51000 units of cola. However, the question asks for the amount of cola lost, so the correct answer is 490 units, which is the difference between the initial amount of cola and the amount that Joe was able to save.

The expression 1700+∫3090r(t)dt represents the cumulative profit the business has earned as of day 90. The integral represents the change in profit over time, and by adding it to the initial profit of 1700, we get the total cumulative profit up to day 90. Therefore, the correct answer is the cumulative profit the business has earned as of day 90.

The solid SS is a circular region with radius 4, centered at (4,0). The cross-sections perpendicular to the x-axis are rectangles with bases parallel to the x-axis. Since the heights of the rectangles are twice the length of their bases, the height of each rectangle is 2 times the distance from the x-axis to the circle. This distance can be found by solving the equation x^2 + y^2 = 16 for y when x = 0. Using the equation of the circle, we get y = √(16 - x^2), so the height of each rectangle is 2√(16 - x^2). The volume of each rectangle is the base (which is the length of the rectangle, given by 2x) multiplied by the height (2√(16 - x^2)). Integrating this expression from x = -4 to x = 4 will give us the volume of the solid. Evaluating the integral will result in the answer 2048/3.
