First add 2 to both sides, next add 2 + 3 to get 5, next break down the equation into two problems which would be 2x - 5 = 5 and -(2x - 5) = 5, NOT 2x - 5 = -5, so this is the FIRST incorrect step, while step 4 is incorrect because its suppose to be 2x = 5 not 10, that's the second step, not first so answer is:

Answer: A) Step 3.

The hypotenuse of a right triangle is 15cm, and the shorter leg is 9cm. Find the length of the other leg
pishuonlain [190]

Hello!

If you add up the squares of the two legs, it will equal the square of the hypotenuse. As we already have the hypotenuse, we will subtract.

225-81=144

Now we find the square root.

√144=12

Therefore, the other leg is 12 cm long.

I hope this helps!

A firework is launched at the rate of 10 feet per second from a point on the ground 50 feet from an observer. to 2 decimal place
Kazeer [188]

The rate of change of the angle of elevation when the firework is 40 feet above the ground is 0.12 radians/second.

First we will draw a right angle triangle ΔABC, where ∠B = 90°

Lets, assume the height(AB) = h and base(BC)= x

If the angle of elevation, ∠ACB = α, then

tan(α) = \frac{AB}{BC} = \frac{h}{x}

Taking inverse trigonometric function, α = tan⁻¹ (\frac{h}{x}) .............(1)

As we need to find the rate of change of the angle of elevation, so we will differentiate both sides of equation (1) with respect to time (t) :

\frac{d\alpha}{dt}=[\frac{1}{1+ \frac{h^2}{x^2}}]*(\frac{1}{x})\frac{dh}{dt}

Here, the firework is launched from point B at the rate of 10 feet/second and when it is 40 feet above the ground it reaches point A,

that means h = 40 feet and \frac{dh}{dt} = 10 feet/second.

C is the observer's position which is 50 feet away from the point B, so x = 50 feet.

\frac{d\alpha}{dt}= [\frac{1}{1+ \frac{40^2}{50^2}}] *\frac{1}{50} *10\\ \\ \frac{d\alpha}{dt} = [\frac{1}{1+\frac{16}{25}}] *\frac{1}{5}\\ \\ \frac{d\alpha}{dt} = [\frac{25}{41}] *\frac{1}{5}\\   \\ \frac{d\alpha}{dt}= \frac{5}{41} =0.1219512

= 0.12 (Rounding up to two decimal places)

So, the rate of change of the angle of elevation is 0.12 radians/second.
