Answer:

\frac{ds}{dt} = 39.586 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

let distance between farmhouse and road is 2 km

From diagram given

p is the distance between road and past the intersection of highway

By using Pythagoras theorem

s^2 = 2^2 +p^2

differentiate wrt t

we get

\frac{d}{dt} s^2 = \frac{d}{dt} (4 + p^2)

2s \frac{ds}{dt}  =2p \frac{dp}{dt}

\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{p}{s}\frac{dp}{dt}

\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{p}{\sqrt{p^2 +4}} \frac{dp}{dt}

putting p = 3.7 km

\frac{ds}{dt} = \frac{3.7}{\sqrt{3.7^2 +4}} 45

\frac{ds}{dt} = 39.586 km/h

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(-2,-1) and Q(4,3)

average of x-coordinates = (-2+4)/2 = 1

average of y-coordinates = (-1+3)/2 = 1

midpoint of PQ: (1,1)

distance between midpoint and Q = √((4-1)²+(3-1)²) = √13

(x-1)² + (y-1)² = 13

lisabon 2012 [21]
To factor a difference of squares, the following steps are undertaken: Check if the terms have the greatest common factor (GCF) and factor it out. Remember to include the GCF in your final answer. Determine the numbers that will produce the same results and apply the formula: a2– b2 = (a + b) (a – b) or (a – b) (a + b)
