Given the radius of 50 miles and the line joining the cities at (0, 56) and (58, 0), the transmitter signal can be picked during 59.24 miles of the drive.

<h3>How can the duration of signal reception be found?</h3>

Radius of broadcast of the transmitter = 50 miles

Location of starting point = 56 miles north of the transmitter

Location of destination city = 58 miles east of the transmitter

Therefore we have;

Slope of the line joining the two cities

= 56 ÷ (-58) = -0.966

Which gives the equation of the line as follows;

y = -0.966•x + 56

The equation of the circle is;

{x}^{2}  +  {y}^{2}  =  {50}^{2}

{x}^{2}  +  { ( - 0.966x + 56)}^{2}  =  {50}^{2}

1.933156•x^2 - 108.192•x + 636 = 0

Which gives;

  • x = 6.67 or x = 49.29

Therefore;

When x = 6.67, we have;

  • y = -0.966 × 6.67 + 56 = 49.56

When x = 49.29, we have;

  • y = -0.966 × 49.29 + 56 = 8.4

The length of the drive, during which the driver can pick the signal, <em>l</em>, is therefore;

l = √((49.56-8.4)^2 + (49.29-6.67)^2) = <u>59.24 miles</u>

  • The length of the drive during which the signal is received is 59.24 miles

The solution of a system of equations with no solution describes what kind of lines?
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is parallel because Since parallel lines never cross, then there can be no intersection; that is, for a system of equations that graphs as parallel lines

Find four geometric means between 25 and 800.
SVEN [57.7K]

Actually, you have to find four missed terms of geometrical sequence. Denote

a_1=25,\\ a_6=800

and r - ratio, then

a_2=a_1\cdot r=25r,\\a_3=a_1\cdot r^2=25r^2,\\a_4=a_1\cdot r^3=25r^3,\\a_5=a_1\cdot r^4=25r^4,\\a_6=a_1\cdot r^5=25r^5.

Since a_6=800, you have that 800=25r^5, then

r^5=\dfrac{800}{25} =32,\\r=2.

Now substitude r=2 in each of unknown 4 terms:

a_2=25\cdot 2=50,\\a_3=25\cdot 2^2=100,\\a_4=25\cdot 2^3=200,\\a_5=25\cdot 2^4=400.

Answer: four geometric means between 25 and 800 are 50, 100, 200, 400.
