X=t-yz and we are asked to solve for y so, subtract t from both sides

x-t=-yz divide both sides by -z

(x-t)/(-z)=y

y=(x-t)/(-z) multiply the numerator and denominator by -1

y=(t-x)/z

How would I solve this?

Use Pythagorean Theorem which states that in a right triangle:

$a^2+b^2=c^2$ , where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse.

$24^2+10^2=x^2$

Take the square root of both sides to solve for x.

$x = \sqrt{676} = 26$

The answer is 26.

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of "1" mi and a speed of "430" mi/h passes directly over a radar station. Find the ra

Anika [276]

Answer:

The rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it is 2 mi away from the station is 372 mi/h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information:

A plane flying horizontally at an altitude of "1" mi and a speed of "430" mi/h passes directly over a radar station.

$z=1$

$\frac{dx}{dt}=430$

We need to find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it is 2 mi away from the station.

$y=2$

According to Pythagoras

$hypotenuse^2=base^2+perpendicular^2$

$y^2=x^2+1^2$

$y^2=x^2+1$ .... (1)

Put z=1 and y=2, to find the value of x.

$2^2=x^2+1^2$

$4=x^2+1$

$4-1=x^2$

$3=x^2$

Taking square root both sides.

$\sqrt{3}=x$

Differentiate equation (1) with respect to t.

$2y\frac{dy}{dt}=2x\frac{dx}{dt}+0$

Divide both sides by 2.

$y\frac{dy}{dt}=x\frac{dx}{dt}$

Put $x=\sqrt{3}$ , y=2, $\frac{dx}{dt}=430$ in the above equation.

$2\frac{dy}{dt}=\sqrt{3}(430)$

Divide both sides by 2.

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{\sqrt{3}(430)}{2}$

$\frac{dy}{dt}=372.390923627$

$\frac{dy}{dt}\approx 372$

Therefore the rate at which the distance from the plane to the station is increasing when it is 2 mi away from the station is 372 mi/h.

A geometric sequence is shown below.

mestny [16]

Answer:

An explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:

$f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}$

It means, option (B) should be true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the geometric sequence

$-\frac{1}{2},\:-2,\:-8,\:-32,...$

A geometric sequence has a constant ratio, denoted by 'r', and is defined by

$f_n=f_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

Determining the common ratios of all the adjacent terms

$\frac{-2}{-\frac{1}{2}}=4,\:\quad \frac{-8}{-2}=4,\:\quad \frac{-32}{-8}=4$

As the ratio is the same, so

r = 4

Given that f₁ = -1/2

substituting r = 4, and f₁ = -1/2 in the nth term

$f_n=f_1\cdot r^{n-1}$

$f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}$

Thus, an explicit representation for the nth term of the sequence:

$f_n=-\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:4^{n-1}$

It means, option (B) should be true.

Answer:

help me plzz

Step-by-step explanation:

The velocity of a particle moving along the x-axis is v(t) = cos(2t), with t measured in minutes and v(t) measured in feet per minute. To the nearest foot find the total distance travelled by the particle from t = 0 to t = π minutes

Can someone please help??

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

let the number of cows = x

let the number of chickens = y

since there are 42 heads:

x + y = 42

and since a cow has 4 legs, and a chicken has 2

4x + 2y = 144

from first equation:

x + y = 42

x = 42 - y (now, we will substitute this in the second equation)

4(42 - y) + 2y = 144

168 - 4y + 2y = 144

2y = 168 - 144

2y = 24

y = 12

now, we know the number of chickens. we will replace y with 12 in the first equation since it is more simpler

x + 12 = 42

x = 30

So, there are 30 cows and 12 chickens
