Suppose that the height of a plane t minutes after take off is h(t)=3500 ln(t+1) feet for 0 (less than or equal to) t (less than or equal to) 15. How fast is the plane rising 5 minutes after take off? 

Apologies but I don't know how to do the less than or equal to symbol

h(t)=3500 ln(t+1)     we need to find the derivative here

 

h' (t)  = 3500 [ 1 / (t + 1) ]   =   3500/ [t + 1]

 

So

 

h ' (5)  =  3500 / [ 5 + 1]   ≈  583.3 ft/ min

 

 

cool cool cool
