Answer:

The other angle would be equal to 133 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

All linear pairs are supplementary angles, which means that they are equal to 180. So we can find the second angle by using the following angle.

47 + x = 180

x = 133

A 10 foot ladder is leaning against a wall. Call x the distance from the top of the ladder to the ground, and call y the distanc

$-5.3\:\text{ft/s}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by applying the Pythagorean theorem to the ladder, with its length L as the hypotenuse:

$L^2 = 100\:\text{ft}^2 = x^2 + y^2$

where x is the vertical distance from the top of the ladder to the ground and y is the horizontal distance from the bottom of the ladder to the wall. Taking the derivative of the above expression with respect to time, we get

$0 = 2x\dfrac{dx}{dt} + 2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

Solving for dx/dt, we get

$\dfrac{dx}{dt} = -\left(\dfrac{y}{x}\right)\dfrac{dy}{dt} = -\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{L^2 - x^2}}{x}\right)\dfrac{dy}{dt}$

We know that

$\dfrac{dy}{dt} = 4\:\text{ft/s}$

when x = 6 ft. So the rate at which the top of the ladder is going down is

$\dfrac{dx}{dt} = -\left(\dfrac{\sqrt{100\:\text{ft}^2 - (6\:\text{ft})^2}}{6\:\text{ft}}\right)(4\:\text{ft/s})$

$\:\:\:\:\:\:\:= -5.3\:\text{ft/s}$

The negative sign means that the distance x is decreasing as y is increasing.

The population of a particular town is given by the function P(t) = 920(1.06)2t, where t is the time in years and P(t) is the po

Sophie [7]

For P(t) = 920*1.06^(2t), the current population is 920, the percentage growth rate is 6% semiannually, and the population in 4 years will be 920*1.06^8 = 1466.

Selection B is appropriate.

_____
The 2 in the exponent means the growth factor 1.06 is applied twice for each increment of t, that is, twice in 1 year (semiannually).
