Answer:

a. Period, T = 12.57 hours. b. Latest time = 294.16 hours, 6 a.m 12 days later

Step-by-step explanation:

For a boat to float in a tidal bay, the water must be at least 2.5 meters deep. The depth of water around the boat, d(t), in meters, where t is measured in hours since midnight, is d(t) = 5 + 4.6sin(0.5t). (a) What is the period of the tides in hours? (b) If the boat leaves the bay at midday, what is the latest time it can return before the water becomes too shallow?

a. The period, T of the tides is gotten from ω = 2π/T, where ω is the angular frequency of the wave and T its period. Comparing the sine part of equation of the tides with the general equqtion of a sine wave, Asinωt, thus Asinωt = 4.6sin(0.5t),

so ω = 0.5 rad/s.

Equating this to 2π/T implies

0.5 = 2π/T

therefore, T = 2π/0.5 = 12.566 hours ≈ 12.57 hours

b. The tide becomes too low if it is less than 2.5 m i.e d(t) < 2.5 m. So, equating d(t) as 2.5 in the tidal equation, we have d(t) = 5 + 4.6sin(0.5t).

2.5< 5+ 4.6sin(0.5t)

2.5-5 < 4.6sin(0.5t)

-2.5 < 4.6sin(0.5t)

-2.5/4.6 < sin(0.5t)

-0.543 < sin(0.5t)

sin⁻¹(-0.543)<0.5t

-32.92<0.5t. Since we cannot have negative time, we add 180 to -32.92 to give 147.08

147.08<0.5t

t>147.08/0.5=294.16 hours

So, if t is greater than 294.16 hours, the water will be shallow. That is, below 2.5 m. which is 12 days 6hours 8 min 38 s which is 6 a.m 12 days later

Oliga [24]
First you have to find a common denominator which would be 24.
5/6 = 20/24
7/8 = 21/24
5/8 = 15/24
So your final answer would be 7 over 8.

A lot is in the shape of a triangle. One side is 100 ft longer than the shortest side, while the third side is 700 ft longer tha
vaieri [72.5K]

We have the next information

x= the shortest side measure

y= the second side measure

y=x+100

z= the third side measures

z=x+700

We know also that the perimeter is 2900 ft

Therefore the equation for the perimeter of the triangle will be

P=x+y+z2900=x+x+100+x+700

we sum like terms

2900=3x+800

then we isolate the x

3x=2900-8003x=2100x=\frac{2100}{3}=700

therefore

x=700ft

y=700+100=800ft

z=700+700=1400ft

The lengths of the sides of the lote are 700 ,800, and 1400 ft,

Simplify the expression.<br><br><br> Write your answer without negative exponents.
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

-5/ (x^19 * y^12)

Step-by-step explanation:

-15x^-10 * y ^ -3 * x^-9 * y^-9/3 (It's writing it like this.)

15 and 3 have a GCF of 3.

-5x^-10 * y^-3 * x^-9 * y^-9/1

Reduce similar occurrences. *twice in a row*

-5x^(-10 + (-9)) * y^(-3 + (-9))/1

Remove extra signs *twice in a row*

-5x^(-10 - 9) * y^(-3 - 9)/1

Remove extraneous 1.

-5x^(-10 - 9) * y^(-3 - 9)

Add integers.

-5x^-19 * y^-12

Negative powers change multiplication to division.

-5 / (x^19 * y^12) is the final answer.

Even with that, the simplified answer wouldn't have negative exponents because of the negative powers rule.
