The radius of a circular disc is increasing at a constant rate of 0.003cm/s. Find the rate at which the area is increasing when the radius is 20cm.

The rate at which the area is increasing, dA/dt, can be written with terms we know or can find out easily: dA/dt=dA/dr x dr/dt.Area of a disc, A = (pi)r^2dA/dr=2(pi)rRate of change of radius, dr/d...

Solve the equation log(1-x) - log(x) = 1 where log() is the logarithmic function, base 10.

From the rules of logarithms, we know that:

log(A) - log(B) = log(A/B)

and thus:

log(1-x) - log(x) = log[(1-x)/x]
