Answer: the rate at which the distance between the boats is increasing is 68 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The direction of movement of both boats forms a right angle triangle. The distance travelled due south and due east by both boats represents the legs of the triangle. Their distance apart after t hours represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
Let x represent the length the shorter leg(south) of the right angle triangle.
Let y represent the length the longer leg(east) of the right angle triangle.
Let z represent the hypotenuse.
Applying Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
Therefore
z² = x² + y²
To determine the rate at which the distances are changing, we would differentiate with respect to t. It becomes
2zdz/dt = 2xdx/dt + 2ydy/dt- - - -- - -1
One travels south at 32 mi/h and the other travels east at 60 mi/h. It means that
dx/dt = 32
dy/dt = 60
Distance = speed × time
Since t = 0.5 hour, then
x = 32 × 0.5 = 16 miles
y = 60 × 0.5 = 30 miles
z² = 16² + 30² = 256 + 900
z = √1156
z = 34 miles
Substituting these values into equation 1, it becomes
2 × 34 × dz/dt = (2 × 16 × 32) + 2 × 30 × 60
68dz/dt = 1024 + 3600
68dz/dt = 4624
dz/dt = 4624/68
dz/dt = 68 mph
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2
A. The sculptor will have to sculpt away 1M on each side.
Explanation: 3 • 1_1/2 • 1_1/2
To get to 2 • 1/2 • 1/2, subtract 1 meter from each side of the rectangular prism and you’ll get that! :)
U minus them?or plus them?
Answer:
Bottom answer
Step-by-step explanation:
Although I cannot see the answer labels, the answer is the very bottom graph. The way you can find a functional graph is if you add vertical lines going down and that there is only one point that crosses it, not two. It is kind of difficult for me to explain, so if you need help, I suggest you look up how to know when a graph is a function or not.
