The height of the rocket is found in terms of the angle as
.. h/(3 mi) = tan(θ)
.. h = (3 mi)*tan(θ)

Then the rate of change of height (vertical velocity) is
.. h' = (3 mi)*sec(θ)^2*θ'
.. h' = (3 mi)*4*(1.5 rad/min)
.. h' = 18 mi/min

The rocket's velocity is 18 miles per minute at that moment.

Answer:

  D(6, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other, so the midpoint of AC is the same as the midpoint of BD. This means ...

  (A +C)/2 = (B +D)/2 . . . . the midpoints are the same

  A +C = B +D . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

  D = A +C -B = (2+5-2, 1+5-3) . . . . . solve for D, substitute given coordinates

  D = (6, 3)

A tower made of wooden blocks measures​ 114 feet high. Then a block is added that increases the height of the tower by 8 inches.
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

4. 23 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The tower is 1 1/4 feet high, then 8 inches are added. Well, we can't just add those two numbers. We have to change the units! Change everything to inches.

1 1/4 feet is equal to 12 inches + 3 inches = 15 inches, because a foot = 12 inches.

Add 8 inches to 15, and you get 23 inches.

<u>The answer is 4. 23 in. </u>

20 points !!! -3/8x-20+2x&gt;6
Semenov [28]

Answer:

x > 16

Step-by-step explanation:

- \frac{3}{8} x -20+2x>6

Add 20 to both sides:

-  \frac{3}{8} x + 2x > 26

Multiply 8 on both sides:

- 3x + 16x > 208

13x > 208

Divide by 13 on both sides:

x > 16
