The population density, D, in people/square mile (p/mi²), for the large city Westport is related to the distance x (in miles) fr

om the city’s center by the equation:________.
D=4300x /x^2 + 40.
a. Describe what happens to West-port's population density as the distance from the city’s center changes from one mile to six miles. What may explain this phenomenon?
b. Describe what happens to West-port's population density as the distance from the city’s center changes from ten miles to thirty miles.
c. Describe the end-behavior of this function? What may explain this phenomenon?
d. In what areas of the city is the population density below 200 p/mi²?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  D=4300x /x² + 40.

x = 1

D = 4300 / 41 = 104.88 p / mi²

x = 6

D = 25800 / 76

= 339.47  p / mi²

Population density increases as we go away from city's centre .

b )

x = 10

D=4300x /x² + 40.

D = 307.14 p/ mi²

x = 30

D = 137.23 p / mi²

Population decreases .

c )

when x is very high , density will decrease due to squared denominator whose value increases very fast .

d )

D < 200

4300x /x² + 40 < 200

4300 x < 200 x² + 8000

43 x < 2 x² + 80

2 x² - 43 x + 80 > 0

( x - 19.44 ) ( x - 2.05 ) > 0

Range x <  2.05

x > 19.44

Without using a trigonometric ratio, find the distance from the ship to the buoy, B. Round the distance to the nearest tenth of
alexdok [17]
Without using the trigonometry ratio, we can find the distance between the ship and the buoy by:

the distance between City and Lemont SUBTRACT the vertical distance between City and the point parallel to the Ship

The distance between the City and Lemont can be worked out using the Sin rule 
\frac{57.8}{sin(36)}= \frac{City-Lemont}{sin(92)}
City-Lemont= \frac{57.9sin(92)}{sin(36)} = 98.27.....≈98.3

The vertical distance between the City and the point parallel to the ship can be worked out using the Pythagoras theorem
\sqrt{57.8^{2}- 44.6^{2} } =36.765...≈36.8

The distance between the ship and the Buoy is given:
98.3-36.8=61.5 miles
