The cost of building a new house is directly proportional to the number of square feet in the house. If a 1,500-square-foot hous

e costs $120,000 to build, what does it cost to build a 2,400-square-foot house?
The cost of building a 2,400 -square-foot house is $_____.

If you divide 120,000 by 1,500 you will get the amount that it costs per square feet which you would then multiply by 2,400 to get 192,000. So the answer is $192,000

A train is traveling at a constant speed in miles per hour. Hours (x) Miles (y) Which equation models the data in the table? 1 2
lara31 [8.8K]

Given:

A train is traveling at a constant speed in miles per hour.

The table of value is:

Hours (x)     Miles (y)

     1                  20

     2                 100

     3                 180

     4                 260

     5                 340

To find:

The equation for the given data table.

Solution:

It is given that the train is traveling at a constant speed in miles per hour. So, it is a linear relationship.

Choose any two point from the given table of value. Let the two points are (1,20) and (2,100). So, the equation of the line is:

y-y_1=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)

y-20=\dfrac{100-20}{2-1}(x-1)

y-20=\dfrac{80}{1}(x-1)

y-20=80(x-1)

Add 20 on both sides.

y=80(x-1)+20

y=80x-80+20

y=80x-60

Therefore, the correct option is D.

Find the slope of the tangent line to the given polar curve at the point specified by the value of θ
MariettaO [177]

The given curve has equation

<em>r(θ)</em> = 9 + 8 cos(<em>θ</em>)

and its derivative is

d<em>r</em>/d<em>θ</em> = -8 sin(<em>θ</em>)

When <em>θ</em> = <em>π</em>/3, we have <em>r</em> (<em>π</em>/3) = 13, and d<em>r</em>/d<em>θ</em> (<em>π</em>/3) = -4√3.

Differentiate these with respect to <em>θ</em> :

d<em>y</em>/d<em>θ</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>θ</em> sin(<em>θ</em>) + <em>r(θ)</em> cos(<em>θ</em>)

d<em>x</em>/d<em>θ</em> = d<em>r</em>/d<em>θ</em> cos(<em>θ</em>) - <em>r(θ</em>) sin(<em>θ</em>)

In polar coordinates, we have

<em>y(θ)</em> = <em>r(θ)</em> sin(<em>θ</em>)

<em>x(θ)</em> = <em>r(θ)</em> cos(<em>θ</em>)

and when <em>θ</em> = <em>π</em>/3, we have <em>y</em> (<em>π</em>/3) = 13√3/2 and <em>x</em> (<em>π</em>/3) = 13/2.

The slope of the tangent line to the curve is d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em>. By the chain rule,

d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = d<em>y</em>/d<em>θ</em> • d<em>θ</em>/d<em>x</em> = (d<em>y</em>/d<em>θ</em>) / (d<em>x</em>/d<em>θ</em>)

d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = (d<em>r</em>/d<em>θ</em> sin(<em>θ</em>) + <em>r(θ)</em> cos(<em>θ</em>)) / (d<em>r</em>/d<em>θ</em> cos(<em>θ</em>) - <em>r(θ</em>) sin(<em>θ</em>))

When <em>θ</em> = <em>π</em>/3, the slope is

d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = (-4√3 sin(<em>π</em>/3) + 13 cos(<em>π</em>/3)) / (-4√3 cos(<em>π</em>/3) - 13 sin(<em>π</em>/3))

d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = (-4√3 (√3/2) + 13 (1/2)) / (-4√3 (1/2) - 13 (√3/2))

d<em>y</em>/d<em>x</em> = - 1/(17√3)

So, the tangent line has slope -1/(17√3) and passes through (13/2, 13√3/2). Using the point-slope formula, its equation is

<em>y</em> - 13√3/2 = -1/(17√3) (<em>x</em> - 13/2)

<em>y</em> = -(<em>x</em> - 338)/(17√3)
