The equation of the rotating light is an illustration of a secant function

The equation that represents the distance between the center of the circle and the light source is d(t) = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)

<h3>How to determine the equation</h3>

The equation is a secant function represented by

y =A\sec(Bt)

Where:

A represents the amplitude

So, we have:

A = 40 --- the distance of the light from each square wall

B represents the period, and it is calculated as:

B = \frac{2\pi}{T}

The light completes its full rotation every 6 seconds.

This means that,

T = 6

So, we have:

B = \frac{2\pi}{6}

Simplify

B = \frac{\pi}{3}

Substitute values for A and B in y =A\sec(Bt)

y = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)

Rewrite as a function

d(t) = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)

Hence, the equation that represents the distance between the center of the circle and the light source is d(t) = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)

Given: ABC is similar to XYC. If BY = 6, YC = 10, AX = 18, then XC = 10.8 5 30 48
Sidana [21]

Answer:

The correct option is 3. The length of XC is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that triangle ABC and triangle XYC are similar.

According to the properties of similar triangles, then corresponding sides of similar triangles are congruent.

In triangle ABC and triangle XYC,

\frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{BC}{YC}=\frac{AC}{XC}

Let the length of XC be x.

From the below figure it is notices that

AC=AX+XC=18+x

BC=BY+YC=6+10=16

\frac{16}{10}=\frac{18+x}{x}

16x=180+10x

6x=180

x=30

Therefore correct option is 3. The length of XC is 30.

Write an equation in point slope and slope intercept form of a line that passes through the given point and
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Point slope is ( Y+4) = 1/2(x+3)

Slope intercept is Y = 1/2(x) -5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For the point slope form.

Given the point as (-3,-4)

And the gradient m = 1/2

Point slope form is

(Y - y1) = m(x-x1)

So

X1 = -3

Y1 = -4

(Y - y1) = m(x-x1)

(Y - (-4)) = 1/2(x -(-3))

( Y+4) = 1/2(x+3)

For the slopes intercept form

Y = mx + c

We can continue from where the point slope form stopped.

( Y+4) = 1/2(x+3)

2(y+4)= x+3

2y + 8 = x+3

2y = x+3-8

2y = x-5

Y = x/2 - 5/2

Y = 1/2(x) -5/2

Where -5/2 = c

1/2 = m
