A dog and a cat are 200 meters apart when they see each other. The dog can run at a speed of 30 meter per second, while the cat

can run at a speed of 24 meters per second. How soon will they meet if they simutaneously start running towards each other?

Answer:

They'll meet after 200 meters , if they simultaneously start running towards each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x =distance travelled by dog and 200-x be the distance travelled by cat. Inorder to meet, the sum of their travelled distances shall be equal to 200 meters as they are far apart by 200 meters.

Dog: Distance =Speed x time: x=30t

Cat: Distance = 200-x

=24t

The sum of their distance travelled shall be 200 meters: 30t+ 24t= 200;54t=200;t=200/54=3.7secs

So they will meet after 3.7 seconds

To check:

Distance travelled by dog :x=30(3.7)

=111.11 meters

Distance travelled by cat: 24t=24(3.7)

=88.89 meters

Therefore since they are travelling towards each other and their distance apart is 200 meters, after 3.7 seconds they will meet because dog travelled 111.11 meters and cat travelled 88.89 meters and they covered already 200 meters as the sum of 111.11+ 88.89

=200 meters

Questions, are all in picture, please solve
Andrews [41]

The function represents a <em>cosine</em> graph with axis at y = - 1, period of 6, and amplitude of 2.5.

<h3>How to analyze sinusoidal functions</h3>

In this question we have a <em>sinusoidal</em> function, of which we are supposed to find the following variables based on given picture:

  1. Equation of the axis - Horizontal that represents the mean of the bounds of the function.
  2. Period - Horizontal distance needed between two maxima or two minima.
  3. Amplitude - Mean of the difference of the bounds of the function.
  4. Type of sinusoidal function - The function represents either a sine or a cosine if and only if trigonometric function is continuous and bounded between - 1 and 1.

Then, we have the following results:

  1. Equation of the axis: y = - 1
  2. Period: 6
  3. Amplitude: 2.5
  4. The graph may be represented by a cosine with no <em>angular</em> phase and a sine with <em>angular</em> phase, based on the following trigonometric expression:

    cos θ = sin (θ + π/2)
