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}

Answer:

f(2) = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

A point (x, y) lying on a function represents output value (y-value) of the function for any input value (x-value).

In other words y = f(x) for any input value of 'x'.  

From the graph attached,

For the input value x = 2,

Output value of the function is y = -5

Therefore, f(2) = -5 will be the answer.

Answer:

\large\boxed{x9\dfrac{3}{5}\to x\in\left(-\infty,\ -1\dfrac{1}{2}\right)\ \cup\ \left(9\dfrac{3}{5},\ \infty\right)}

Step-by-step explanation:

12x+7

5x-8>40\qquad\text{add 8 to both sides}\\\\5x-8+8>40+8\\\\5x>48\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\dfrac{5x}{5}>\dfrac{48}{5}\\\\x>\dfrac{48}{5}\\\\x>9\dfrac{3}{5}\\===========================

x9\dfrac{3}{5}
