X=29 and y=10

You would isolate one of the variables and then plug the expression into the other equation to find the value of one variable. Then you would plug this value into the other equation to determine the value of the remaining variable.

A lighthouse is located on a small island 2 km away from the nearest point P on a straight shoreline and its light makes four re

ddd [48]

Answer:

62.8 km per min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the diagram of this situation is shown below,

In which $\theta$ is the angle made by light to the straight line joining the lighthouse and P,

∵ Light makes 4 revolutions per minute.

Also, 1 revolution = $2\pi$ radians

So, the change in angle with respect to t ( time ),

$\frac{d\theta}{dt}=8\pi\text{ radians per min}$

Let x be the distance of beam from P,

$\implies \tan \theta = \frac{x}{2}$

Differentiating with respect to x,

$\sec^2 \theta \frac{d\theta}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\tan^2 \theta) (8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$(1+\frac{x^2}{2^2})(8\pi) = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

If x = 1 km,

$(1+\frac{1}{4})8\pi =\frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\frac{5}{4}8\pi = \frac{1}{2}\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\implies \frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{80\pi}{4}= 20\pi\approx 62.8\text{ km per min}$

Hence, the beam of light moving along the shoreline with the speed of 62.8 km per min

The question is below

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

RU = 9

ST = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

RT = 6

RS = ST = (1/2)RT = (1/2)(6) = 3

ST = 3

RU = 3ST = 3 * 3 = 9
