Indicate whether the statement is true of false.

Answer to Problem 1SYU

True

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

If a quantity Q is increasing at a constant rate of 8 grams per hour and Q is in grams and t is in hours, then the quantity satisfies the differential equation $\frac{dQ}{dt}=8$

Calculation:

Since, a quantity Q is increasing at a constant rate of 8 grams per hour, so it will be $\frac{dQ}{dt}=8$.

Thus the given statement is true.

Conclusion:

True
