Answer:

0.15 rad/s

Step-by-step explanation:

A rocket is launched at the rate of 11 feet per second from a point on the ground 15 feet from an observer.

To find rate of change of angle when the rocket is 30 feet above the ground

Height of rocket, y = 30 feet

Speed of rocket, \dfrac{dy}{dt}= 11 ft/s

Distance of observer from rocket, d = 15 feet

Angle between observer and rocket at height 30 feet is Ф

\tan\theta=\dfrac{30}{15}=2

\tan\theta=\dfrac{\text{Perpendicular}}{\text{base}}

Distance between observer and rocket launch doesn't change.

So, d=15 will remain constant.

\tan\theta=\dfrac{y}{d}

15\tan\theta=y

differentiate w.r.t t

15\sec^2\theta \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{dy}{dt}

15(1+\tan^2\theta)\cdot \dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=11

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{11}{15(1+2^2)}

\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}=\dfrac{11}{75}\ rad/s\approx 0.15\ rad/s

Hence, The rate of change of the angle of elevation is 0.15 rad/s

Let the angle of elevation is x and the height of the rocket from the ground is y

tanx = y/15

by differentiating both sides with respect to T

sec²x·dx/dt = (dy/dt)/15

at y = 30 , the hypotenuse of the triangle = 15√5

sec²x=(15√5/15)²=5

5 dx/dt = 11/15

dx/dt = 11/75 rad/sec

How to solve a one step equation of R+3= -6 1/2 <br> please show all the work
IgorC [24]
Solve for R:
R + 3 = -(1/2 + 6)
Put 1/2 + 6 over the common denominator 2. 1/2 + 6 = (2×6)/2 + 1/2:
R + 3 = -(2×6)/2 + 1/2
2×6 = 12:
R + 3 = -(12/2 + 1/2)
12/2 + 1/2 = (12 + 1)/2:
R + 3 = -(12 + 1)/2
12 + 1 = 13:
R + 3 = -13/2
Subtract 3 from both sides:
R + (3 - 3) = -13/2 - 3
3 - 3 = 0:
R = -13/2 - 3
Put -13/2 - 3 over the common denominator 2. -13/2 - 3 = (-13)/2 + (2 (-3))/2:
R = (-13)/2 - (3×2)/2
2 (-3) = -6:
R = (-6)/2 - 13/2
(-13)/2 - 6/2 = (-13 - 6)/2:
R = (-13 - 6)/2
-13 - 6 = -19:
Answer:  R = (-19)/2

Answer:

C(x)=25x+6000

b=2250

Step-by-step explanation:

C(x)=mx+b

m-marginal cost

x-no items

finding B

C(x)mx+b

6000=25(130)+b

b=2250

General substitution

C(x)=25x+6000

If the probability of selecting, without replacement, 2 red marbles from a bag containing only red and blue marbles is 3 55 and
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let T = the TOTAL number of marbles in the bag.

We are told that 3 of those marbles are red

P(select a red marble first) = 3/T

Once we've removed the first red marble, there are T-1 marbles remaining and 2 of them are red

So, P(select a red marble second) = 2/(T-1)

Okay, now let's use probability rules to answer the question....

P(select 2 red marbles) = P(select a red marble first AND select a red marble second)

= P(select a red marble first) x P(select a red marble second)

= 3/T x 2/(T-1)

= 6/(T² - T)

We're told that P(select 2 red marbles) = 3/55

So, we can write: 6/(T² - T) = 3/55

Cross multiply to get: 3(T² - T) = (6)(55)

Divide both sides by 3 to get: T² - T = (2)(55)

Evaluate: T² - T = 110

Rearrange: T² - T - 110 = 0

Factor: (T - 11)(T + 10) = 0

So, EITHER T = 11 OR T = -10

Since T cannot be negative, it must be the case that T = 11
