Answer:

39 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Right triangle

40 ft tree = opposite side

50 feet = adjacent side

tan (angle) = opp / adj = 40 /50

arctan (40/50) = 38.66 degrees ~ 39 degrees

Find the value of kk for which the constant function x(t)=kx(t)=k is a solution of the differential equation 5t3dxdt+2x−2=05t3dx

uranmaximum [27]

Given the differential equation

$5t^3 \frac{dx}{dt} +2x-2=0$

The solution is as follows:

$5t^3 \frac{dx}{dt} +2x-2=0 \\ \\ \Rightarrow5t^3 \frac{dx}{dt} =2-2x \\ \\ \Rightarrow \frac{5}{2-2x} dx= \frac{1}{t^3} dt \\ \\ \Rightarrow \int {\frac{5}{2-2x} } \, dx = \int {\frac{1}{t^3}} \, dt \\ \\ \Rightarrow- \frac{5}{2} \ln(2-2x)=- \frac{1}{2t^2} +A \\ \\ \Rightarrow\ln(2-2x)= \frac{1}{5t^2} +B\\ \\ \Rightarrow2-2x=Ce^{\frac{1}{5t^2}} \\ \\ \Rightarrow 2x=Ce^{\frac{1}{5t^2}}+2 \\ \\ \Rightarrow x=De^{\frac{1}{5t^2}}+1$

for every weekend that mia does her household chores her mother gives her $9.for how many weekends does mia have to do her chore

allsm [11]

So, we'll say Mia gets $4.50 a day, since a standard weekend is two days, therefore adding up to $9 a weekend. So if Mia were to do her chores for 4 weekends, she'd have a total of $36 but not $40. So if she were to work an extra weekend, so 5 weekends, she'd have a total of $45. So you can say 5 weekends in order to earn more than $40.

At what point on the curve x^2 + y^2 = 9 is the tangent line vertical?

Gemiola [76]

x² + y² = 9 is the equation of a circle with center (0, 0) and radius 3.

This puts the vertices at (-3, 0), (3, 0), (0, -3), and (0, 3).

When is the tangent line vertical? <em>when it passes through the x-axis.</em>

Answer: (-3, 0), (3, 0)
