A large ice floe is floating at a speed of 3 kilometers per hour. A polar bear leaves the floe and swims in the opposite directi

on at 9 kilometers per hour. How long will it be before the polar bear is 4 kilometers away from the floe?
How do I do this??? My teacher never teaches me!!

Ok, so the total distance will be 4 kilometers

remember, distance=speed times time

the polar bear's distance=9km/h times t  or  9t
t is time in hours

the floe's distance =3km/hr times t or 3t

total disatace=polar bear disatnce+floe's distance=9t+3t=12t

so when will this distance eqal 4km?
4=12t
divide both sides by 12
4/12=t
1/3=t
about 20 mins or 1/3 hour

Use the Distributive Property to solve the equation.<br>4(x - 6) + 6 = 6x-2​
KatRina [158]

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

(4 · x) - (4 · 6) + 6 = 6x - 2

4x - 24 + 6 = 6x - 2

4x - 18 = 6x - 2

Isolate x.

4x = 6x - 2 + 18

4x = 6x + 16

4x - 6x = 16

-2x = 16

x = 16 ÷ -2

x = -8

I hope this helps! :)

39-50 find the limit.<br> 41. <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Clim%20_%7Bt%20%5Crightarrow%200%7D%20%5Cfrac%7B%5Ctan%206%20t
Katyanochek1 [597]

Write tan in terms of sin and cos.

\displaystyle \lim_{t\to0}\frac{\tan(6t)}{\sin(2t)} = \lim_{t\to0}\frac{\sin(6t)}{\sin(2t)\cos(6t)}

Recall that

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to0}\frac{\sin(x)}x = 1

Rewrite and expand the given limand as the product

\displaystyle \lim_{t\to0}\frac{\sin(6t)}{\sin(2t)\cos(6t)} = \lim_{t\to0} \frac{\sin(6t)}{6t} \times \frac{2t}{\sin(2t)} \times \frac{6t}{2t\cos(6t)} \\\\ = \left(\lim_{t\to0} \frac{\sin(6t)}{6t}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{2t}{\sin(2t)}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{3}{\cos(6t)}\right)

Then using the known limit above, it follows that

\displaystyle \left(\lim_{t\to0} \frac{\sin(6t)}{6t}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{2t}{\sin(2t)}\right) \times \left(\lim_{t\to0}\frac{3}{\cos(6t)}\right) = 1 \times 1 \times \frac3{\cos(0)} = \boxed{3}

Which of the values shown are potential roots of f(x) = 3x3 – 13x2 – 3x + 45? Select all that apply.
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

All potential roots are 3,3 and -\frac{5}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Potential roots of the polynomial is all possible roots of f(x).

f(x)=3x^3-13x^2-3x+45

Using rational root theorem test. We will find all the possible or potential roots of the polynomial.

p=All the positive/negative factors of 45

q=All the positive/negative factors of 3

p=\pm 1,\pm 3,\pm 5\pm \pm 9,\pm 15\pm 45

q=\pm 1,\pm 3

All possible roots

\frac{p}{q}=\pm 1,\pm 3,\pm 5\pm \pm 9,\pm 15\pm 45,\pm \frac{1}{3},\pm \frac{5}{3}

Now we check each rational root and see which are possible roots for given function.

f(1)= 3\times 1^3-13\times 1^2-3\times 1+45\Rightarrow 32\neq 0

f(-1)= 3\times (-1)^3-13\times (-1)^2-3\times (-1)+45\Rightarrow \neq 32

f(-3)= 3\times (-3)^3-13\times (-3)^2-3\times (-3)+45\Rightarrow \neq -144

f(3)= 3\times (3)^3-13\times (3)^2-3\times (3)+45\Rightarrow =0\\\\ \therefore x=3\text{ Potential roots of function}

Similarly, we will check for all value of p/q and we get

f(-5/3)=0

Thus, All potential roots are 3,3 and -\frac{5}{3}.
