Assuming the house is parallel to the ground, your triangle is made up by the house, the ground, and the ladder. Using sin(x) = opposite/hypotenuse on the angle 70 degrees, you would have sin(70) = 20/x (because 20 is the side opposite of the angle connecting the ladder and the ground)
--> simplify sin(70) * x = 20 --> x = 20 / sin(70
--> substitute (and make sure your calculator in in degrees) x= 21. 284

Find the x-coordinates where f ' (x)=0 for f(x)=2x+sin(4x) in the interval [0, pi]

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

The x-coordinate is \dfrac{\pi}{6}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function f(x) as:

$f(x)=2x+\sin (4x)$

Now on differentiating both side with respect to x we get that:

$f'(x)=2+4 \cos (4x)$

When $f'(x)=0$

this means that $2+4\cos (4x)=0\\\\4\cos (4x)=-2\\\\\cos(4x)=\dfrac{-1}{2}$

Hence, cosine function takes the negative value in second and third quadrant but we have to only find the value in the interval $[0,\pi]$ .

also we know that $\cos (\dfrac{2\pi}{3})=\dfrac{-1}{2}$ ----(1) (which lie in the second quadrant)

so on comparing our equation with equation (1) we obtain:

$4x=\dfrac{2\pi}{3}\\\\x=\dfrac{\pi}{6}$

Hence, the x-coordinates where $f'(x)=0$ for $f(x)=2x+\sin(4x)$ is $\dfrac{\pi}{6}$ .

The zoo feeds the tortoise, rhinoceros, and zebra a total of 23 pounds of vegetables a day. How many pounds does the zoo feed th

vekshin1

If I understand your question correctly, you want to know how many pounds of vegetables the zoo feeds the animals a month if its a 30 day month?

In that case it would be 23 pounds times 30 days which is 690 pounds of vegetables. SO the zoo feeds the animals 690 pounds of vegetables to the animals each month.

Is that what your asking for?
