An airliner maintaining a constant elevation of 2 miles passes over an airport at noon traveling 500 mi/hr due west. At 1:00 PM,

another airliner passes over the same airport at the same elevation traveling due north at 550 mi/h. Assuming both airliners maintain the (equal) elevations, how fast is the distance between them changing at 2:30 PM

Answer:

\frac{ds}{dt}\approx 743.303\,\frac{mi}{h}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that airliners travel at constant speed. The equations for travelled distance of each airplane with respect to origin are respectively:

First airplane

r_{A} = 500\,\frac{mi}{h}\cdot t\\r_{B} = 550\,\frac{mi}{h}\cdot t

Where t is the time measured in hours.

Since north and west are perpendicular to each other, the staight distance between airliners can modelled by means of the Pythagorean Theorem:

s=\sqrt{r_{A}^{2}+r_{B}^{2}}

Rate of change of such distance can be found by the deriving the expression in terms of time:

\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{r_{A}\cdot \frac{dr_{A}}{dt}+r_{B}\cdot \frac{dr_{B}}{dt}}{\sqrt{r_{A}^{2}+r_{B}^{2}} }

Where \frac{dr_{A}}{dt} = 500\,\frac{mi}{h} and \frac{dr_{B}}{dt} = 550\,\frac{mi}{h}, respectively. Distances of each airliner at 2:30 PM are:

r_{A}= (500\,\frac{mi}{h})\cdot (1.5\,h)\\r_{A} = 750\,mi

r_{B}=(550\,\frac{mi}{h} )\cdot (1.5\,h)\\r_{B} = 825\,mi

The rate of change is:

\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{(750\,mi)\cdot (500\,\frac{mi}{h} )+(825\,mi)\cdot(550\,\frac{mi}{h})}{\sqrt{(750\,mi)^{2}+(825\,mi)^{2}} }

\frac{ds}{dt}\approx 743.303\,\frac{mi}{h}

Given the parent function f(x)=x^2 in red, write the equation for the transformed function g(x) in green.
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

g(x) = 2x² + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The parabola got thinner, so to show that, you put a 2 <u><em>before</em></u> x²<em> </em>to show that the graph was <em>dilated </em>(or thinned) by a factor of <em>2 </em>(Note: this number can also be <em>negative</em>, so if the dilation factor is negative, it's okay). Since the parabola shifts up by <em>1</em>, you then add + 1<em> </em><em><u>after</u></em> x² to show the positive upward shift.

Your full equation would look like this: g(x) = 2x² + 1

Dilation: this just means that every point on the parent function was double (or whatever the factor is) in the transformed function.
