The distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel can be modeled by the equation d equals 20 times the sine of t

he quantity pi over 30 times t end quantity plus 10 comma where d represents the distance, in feet, of the person above the ground after t seconds. How long will it take for the Ferris wheel to make one revolution?

We have the function d, representing the distance from the ground of a person riding on a Ferris wheel:

d(t)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)+10

If we consider the position of the person at t = 0, which is:

d(0)=20\sin (\frac{\pi}{30}\cdot0)+10=20\cdot0+10=10

This position, for t = 0, will be the same position as when the argument of the sine function is equal to 2π, which is equivalent to one cycle of the wheel. Then, we can find the value of t:

\begin{gathered} \sin (\frac{\pi}{30}t)=\sin (2\pi) \\ \frac{\pi}{30}\cdot t=2\pi \\ t=2\pi\cdot\frac{30}{\pi} \\ t=60 \end{gathered}

Then, the wheel will repeat its position after t = 60 seconds.

Answer: 60 seconds.

Which function has a simplified base of 4RootIndex 3 StartRoot 4 EndRoot? f(x) = 2(RootIndex 3 StartRoot 16 EndRoot) Superscript
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

  f(x)=4\sqrt[3]{16}^{2x}

Step-by-step explanation:

We believe you're wanting to find a function with an equivalent base of ...

  4\sqrt[3]{4}\approx 6.3496

The functions you're looking at seem to be ...

  f(x)=2\sqrt[3]{16}^x\approx 2\cdot2.5198^x\\\\f(x)=2\sqrt[3]{64}^x=2\cdot 4^x\\\\f(x)=4\sqrt[3]{16}^{2x}\approx 4\cdot 6.3496^x\ \leftarrow\text{ this one}\\\\f(x)=4\sqrt[3]{64}^{2x}=4\cdot 16^x

The third choice seems to be the one you're looking for.

What is the solution of -x+4>2
Svetradugi [14.3K]

There is no single solution but there is a group of solutions also known as the interval.

-x+4>2 \\-x>-2 \\x

This can be written with an interval.

x\in(-\infty, 2)

Hope this helps.

Huey has a fish tank that measures 5 feet long by 2 feet wide and 2 feet tall . The volume of the tank.
iris [78.8K]
This is a simple problem

First, take common sense and apply it here. The problem doesn't specifically tell you what the shape ACTUALLY is, but we can also apply what we know about geometry here, as well as what we know in general. Fish tanks most commonly come in 2 shapes: Square's and Rectangles. Fish tanks are what we call "3D" objects (meaning it's just not flat like a piece of paper", and the shapes are known as "Cubes and Rectangular Prisms".

Well, we know that squares/cubes have to have even sides. The problem states the tank is 5(l) by 2(w) by 2(h). This means it CAN'T be a cube, thus meaning it's a rectangular prism.

Now, to calculate volume, we have to know the formula. For this, the formula for volume is as follows: V=lwh
This means Volume=Length*Width*Height

So, do replace the words with what you know you already have. Let's make a list:
Length=5
Width=2
Height=2

V=lwh-----V=5*2*2

Now, work it out. 5*2=10*2=20, Left to right

Your answer here is V=20
