E is the midpoint of DF.If DE = 6x - 58 and EF = 44, find the value of x.

1 answer:

4 0

If a segment is separated by a midpoint, that means both sides are equal. therefore,

DE = EF
6x - 58 = 44

now just solve for x

6x = 102
x = 17

The graph of x^2=-2+y+5cosy is shown for y=11

erik [133]

(a)

We have been given an equation $x^{2}=-2+y+5cosy$ . Upon taking derivative of this equation with respect to x on both the sides, we get:

$2x=0+\frac{dy}{dx}+5(-siny)\frac{dy}{dx}\\2x=(1-5siny)\frac{dy}{dx}\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2x}{1-5siny}$

(b)

In order to write the equation of tangent line, we need to find the slope of the line. We know that point (3,11) lies on the graph. Therefore, we write the slope of the tangent as:

$\text{Slope}=\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2(3)}{1-5sin(11)}=1$

Therefore, equation of tangent line is:

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})\Rightarrow y-11=1(x-3)\\y-11=x-3\\y=x+8$

(c)

We know that slope of tangent is given as $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2x}{1-5siny}$ . The tangent will be vertical when denominator of slope is zero, that is:

$1-5siny=0\Rightarrow siny=\frac{1}{5}\Rightarrow y=arcsin(\frac{1}{5})\\y=1.732,1.525, 3.063 \text{ etc.}$

How can the public be further educated about the use of PFDs and BUI?

Gemiola [76]

It can be done with the use of pamphlets that can be distributed to them when they buy a boat. Also, a commercial or advertisement would be helpful related to PFDs and BUI.

Hope this helps!
