A person stands 10 meters east of an intersection and watches a car driving towards the intersection from the north at 13 meters

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A person stand 10 meters east of an intersection and watches a car driving towards the intersection from the north at 13 m/s.

From Pythagorean Theorem,

(The distance between car and person)²= (The distance of the car from intersection)²+ (The distance of the person from intersection)²+

Assume that the distance of the car from the intersection and from the person be x and y at any time t respectively.

∴y²= x²+10²

$\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{x^2+100}$

Differentiating with respect to t

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x^2+100}}. 2x\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+100}}. \frac{dx}{dt}$

Since the car driving towards the intersection at 13 m/s.

so, $\frac{dx}{dt}=-13$

$\therefore \frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+100}}.(-13)$

Now

$\therefore \frac{dy}{dt}|_{x=24}=\frac{24}{\sqrt{24^2+100}}.(-13)$

$=\frac{24\times (-13)}{\sqrt{676}}$

$=\frac{24\times (-13)}{26}$

= -12 m/s

Negative sign denotes the distance between the car and the person decrease.

Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.

What is the equation of the line in the graph

iren [92.7K]

Always, ALWAYS remeber this format: y = mx + b

In this equation, 'm' is the slope, and 'b' is the y-intercept

When you're trying to find a slope, remember that the equation is $\frac{rise}{run}$

When finding the rise and run, look at two points that are on the graph AND on the line as well. Essentially, make sure the points you're using are integers.

In this, case, the rise is -3, and the run is 2. This means that the slope is $\frac{-3}{2}$

Now we have the first part of our equation:

y = - $\frac{3}{2}$ + b

But wait! How do we find b?

Sometimes you have to input x in order to find it, but only when you're not supplied with a graph. In this case, all you have to do is look!

The point of the line that is on the y-axis is called the y-intercept.

In this graph, the y-intercept is -1

Now we have our complete equation!

y = - $\frac{3}{2}$ - 1

Good luck!

The solutions to the quadratic equation in the exact form are x = -1/2 or x = -5

<h3>What are quadratic equations?</h3>

Quadratic equations are second-order polynomial equations and they have the form y = ax^2 + bx + c or y = a(x - h)^2 + k

<h3>How to determine the solution to the quadratic equation?</h3>

A quadratic equations can be split to several equations and it can be solved as a whole

In this case, the quadratic equation is given as

5x^2 + 11x + 2 = 0

Using the form of the quadratic equation y = ax^2 + bx + c, we have

a = 5, b = 11 and c = 2

The quadratic equation can be solved using the following formula

x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac))/2a

Substitute the known values of a, b and c in the above equation

x = (-11 ± √(11^2 - 4 * 5 * 2))/2*2

Evaluate the exponent

x = (-11 ± √(121 - 4 * 5 * 2))/2*2

Evaluate the products

x = (-11 ± √(121 - 40))/4

Evaluate the sum

x = (-11 ± √(81))/4

Take the square root of 81

x = (-11 ± 9)/4

Expand

x = 1/4 * (-11 + 9) or x = 1/4 * (-11 - 9)

Evaluate the difference

x = 1/4 * -2 or x = 1/4 * -20

Evaluate the product

x = -1/2 or x = -5

Hence, the solutions to the quadratic equation in the exact form are x = -1/2 or x = -5

Solve the equation for z <br>5z-8=32<br>A. z=4<br>B. z=4.8<br>C. z=6<br>D. z=8

nadezda [96]

Answer:

Z=8 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

first, you add 8 to both sides which leaves you with 5z=40. then after that you divide both sides by 5 which leaves you with 5/5z = 40/5. then buy dividing 5 by 5 its leaves you with 1 which is equal to z because blank variables equal 1. On the other side if the equation 40 by 5 is 8 so that leaves you with z=8

What is the value of x?

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

x=68

Step-by-step explanation:

We begin by setting up as a proportion. 99.2 and 112 ft are across from each other so we can put those as our numerators. Additionally 62 and (x+2) ft are across from each other so we can put those as denominators. Now we can set up our proportion and begin to cross multiply:

99.2/62 = 112/(x+2) is our equation. It might help you see it clearly to write it out as fractions. From here, we cross multiply.

When we do that, we get x=68
