We have the next

AB is perpendicular with AD

DE is perpendicular with DC

angle B= angle ECD

angle ACD= 56°

We need to remember that the sum of the interior angles of a triangle is 180° and a right triangle is equal to 90°

So we have the next equation for angle B

$m\angle B+56+90=180$

we isolate the angle B

$m\angle B=180-90-56=34$ $m\angle B=34\text{\degree}$

then for the angle BCE it forms an angle of 180° with angle BCA and ECD, therefor angle BCE is

$m\angle BCE=180-56-34=90\degree$

Tacoma's population in 2000 was about 200 thousand, and had been growing by about 9% each year. a. Write a recursive formula for

KIM [24]

Answer:

a) The recurrence formula is $P_n = \frac{109}{100}P_{n-1}$ .

b) The general formula for the population of Tacoma is

$P_n = \left(\frac{109}{100}\right)^nP_{0}$ .

c) In 2016 the approximate population of Tacoma will be 794062 people.

d) The population of Tacoma should exceed the 400000 people by the year 2009.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We have the population in the year 2000, which is 200 000 people. Let us write $P_0 = 200 000$ . For the population in 2001 we will use $P_1$ , for the population in 2002 we will use $P_2$ , and so on.

In the following year, 2001, the population grow 9% with respect to the previous year. This means that $P_0$ is equal to $P_1$ plus 9% of the population of 2000. Notice that this can be written as

$P_1 = P_0 + (9/100)*P_0 = \left(1-\frac{9}{100}\right)P_0 = \frac{109}{100}P_0$ .

In 2002, we will have the population of 2001, $P_1$ , plus the 9% of $P_1$ . This is

$P_2 = P_1 + (9/100)*P_1 = \left(1-\frac{9}{100}\right)P_1 = \frac{109}{100}P_1$ .

So, it is not difficult to notice that the general recurrence is

$P_n = \frac{109}{100}P_{n-1}$ .

b) In the previous formula we only need to substitute the expression for $P_{n-1}$ :

$P_{n-1} = \frac{109}{100}P_{n-2}$ .

Then,

$P_n = \left(\frac{109}{100}\right)^2P_{n-2}$ .

Repeating the procedure for $P_{n-3}$ we get

$P_n = \left(\frac{109}{100}\right)^3P_{n-3}$ .

But we can do the same operation n times, so

$P_n = \left(\frac{109}{100}\right)^nP_{0}$ .

c) Recall the notation we have used:

$P_{0}$ for 2000, $P_{1}$ for 2001, $P_{2}$ for 2002, and so on. Then, 2016 is $P_{16}$ . So, in order to obtain the approximate population of Tacoma in 2016 is

$P_{16} = \left(\frac{109}{100}\right)^{16}P_{0} = (1.09)^{16}P_0 = 3.97\cdot 200000 \approx 794062$

d) In this case we want to know when $P_n>400000$ , which is equivalent to

$(1.09)^{n}P_0>400000$ .

Substituting the value of $P_0$ , we get

$(1.09)^{n}200000>400000$ .

Simplifying the expression:

$(1.09)^{n}>2$ .

So, we need to find the value of $n$ such that the above inequality holds.

The easiest way to do this is take logarithm in both hands. Then,

$n\ln(1.09)>\ln 2$ .

So, $n>\frac{\ln 2}{\ln(1.09)} = 8.04323172693$ .

So, the population of Tacoma should exceed the 400 000 by the year 2009.

Step-by-step explanation:

It's actually the other way round.

2x^2- + x - 3

( 2x^2 - 2x) + (3x-3)

2x ( x-1 ) + 3( x-1)

( x - 1)(2x+3)

Its the other way around

Consider the following region R and the vector field F. a. Compute the two-dimensional curl of the vector field. b. Evaluate bo

Shalnov [3]

Looks like we're given

$\vec F(x,y)=\langle-x,-y\rangle$

which in three dimensions could be expressed as

$\vec F(x,y)=\langle-x,-y,0\rangle$

and this has curl

$\mathrm{curl}\vec F=\langle0_y-(-y)_z,-(0_x-(-x)_z),(-y)_x-(-x)_y\rangle=\langle0,0,0\rangle$

which confirms the two-dimensional curl is 0.

It also looks like the region $R$ is the disk $x^2+y^2\le5$ . Green's theorem says the integral of $\vec F$ along the boundary of $R$ is equal to the integral of the two-dimensional curl of $\vec F$ over the interior of $R$ :

$\displaystyle\int_{\partial R}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\iint_R\mathrm{curl}\vec F\,\mathrm dA$

which we know to be 0, since the curl itself is 0. To verify this, we can parameterize the boundary of $R$ by

$\vec r(t)=\langle\sqrt5\cos t,\sqrt5\sin t\rangle\implies\vec r'(t)=\langle-\sqrt5\sin t,\sqrt5\cos t\rangle$

$\implies\mathrm d\vec r=\vec r'(t)\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt5\langle-\sin t,\cos t\rangle\,\mathrm dt$

with $0\le t\le2\pi$ . Then

$\displaystyle\int_{\partial R}\vec F\cdot\mathrm d\vec r=\int_0^{2\pi}\langle-\sqrt5\cos t,-\sqrt5\sin t\rangle\cdot\langle-\sqrt5\sin t,\sqrt5\cos t\rangle\,\mathrm dt$

$=\displaystyle5\int_0^{2\pi}(\sin t\cos t-\sin t\cos t)\,\mathrm dt=0$
