Answer:

87 \frac{feet}{s}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that there are 5280 feet in a mile, 60 seconds in a minute, and 60 minutes in an hour.

To know what the speed of the antelope will be in feet per second we will use a conversion factor.

\frac{59 miles}{1h} .\frac{5280 feet}{1 mile}= 311520 \frac{feet}{h}

We know that one hour has 60 minutes and that one minute has 60 seconds. We use a simple rule of three to know how many seconds are in an hour

1min \longrightarrow 60s\\ 60 min\longrightarrow x\\ x= \frac{(60)(60)}{1}= 3600

311520\frac{feet}{h}.\frac{1h}{3600s}= 87 \frac{feet}{s}

the speed of the antilope is 87 \frac{feet}{s}

Determine the following angle measures.<br> mZM=<br> mXL =
fomenos

Angle measures are ∠M = 90° and ∠L = 24°

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: In the figure, LM is a tangent to the circle N at point M.

Tangents create right angles at the point of contact with a circle.

So ∠M = 90°

  • Step 2: Sum of angles in a triangle is equal to 180°

⇒ ∠L = 180° - (∠M + ∠N) = 180° - (90° + 66°)

         = 180° - 156° = 24°

The edges of a cube increase at a rate of 2 cm divided by s. How fast is the volume changing when the length of each edge is 40
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the edge of the cube be a .

Given

\frac{da}{dt} = 2 cm/s

Volume V = a³

\frac{dV}{dt} = 3a^ 2\frac{da}{dt}

= 3a² x 2

= 6a²

If a = 40 cm

\frac{dV}{dt} = 6 \times 40\times40

= 9600 cm³/s .
