A ladder 10 ft long rests against a vertical wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall at a rate of 1.1 ft/s,

how fast is the angle between the ladder and the ground changing when the bottom of the ladder is 8 ft from the wall? (That is, find the angle's rate of change when the bottom of the ladder is 8 ft from the wall.)

 <span>let: 
X = the distance of the bottom of the ladder from the wall at any time 
dX/dt = rate of travel of the bottom of the ladder = 1.1 ft/sec 
A = the angle of the ladder with the ground at anytime 
dA/dt = rate of change of the angle in radians per second 

X = 10 cos A 

dX/dt= -10 sin A dA/dt = 1.1 

dA/dt = -1.1/(10 sinA) 

When X = 6; cosA = 6/10; sinA = 8/10 

Therefore: 

dA/dt = -1.1/(10 x 0.8) = -0.1375 radiant per second. </span>

Can someone explain division of polynomials to me please.
kykrilka [37]

Answer: Division of Polynomials is just like the long division  that most of us despise but this division is with Variables

Step-by-step explanation:

Example

With whatever equation you have you will

  • First: set up the division putting the dividend inside the divisor outside and to the left
  • Second: Ignore everything past the leading terms and just focus on the leading _ of the divisor and the leading _ of the dividend (just like in regular long division.
  • Thirdly: Take whatever is on top and multiply is by the divisor {What is on the side} carry the result underneath put it exactly below the number from the dividend
  • Fourth: Multiply the number that is on top by the number that is on the side, carry what is on the side underneath putting it below the other dividend.
  • Fifth: Do the subtraction
  • Sixth To subtract change all the signs in the second line, then add down.
  • Next: Carry down that last term from the dividend
  • From there you multiply and then add down again and you should be left with the answer....

If this was to many words let me know and I will upload a picture and explain with a real equation.

Consider the exponential function f ( x ) = 13 , 500 ⋅ 0.89^x, which models the value of Mikayla's scooter, where x represents t
Elden [556K]

Answer: $8470

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you can substitute 4 for x:

f(x) = 13500*.89^4\\f(x) = 13500*0.6274\\f(x) = 8470

Mikayla's scooter is worth around $8470 after 4 years.

It was originally worth 13,500 dollars and depreciated by 11% every year.
