Pachacha [2.7K]

We can model the function between a and b as a linear function of negative slope because it is a short interval and the change is not very significant.
We have then that the average rate of change in that interval is:
m = (f (a) - f (b)) / (a-b)
Substituting the values:
m = (34.25 - 26) / (2.5-3.6)
m = -7.5
Negative, because the function decreases in that interval.
Answer:
a reasonable estimate of the average rate of change of the height of the rocket, in meters per second, between a and b seconds is:
m = -7.5 m / s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Temp. 174 176 177 178 178 179 180 181

Ratio 0.86 1.31 1.42 1.01 1.15 1.02 1.00 1.74

Temp. 184 184 184 184 184 185 185 186

Ratio 1.43 1.70 1.57 2.13 2.25 0.76 1.37 0.94

Temp. 186 186 186 188 188 189 190 192

Ratio 1.85 2.02 2.64 1.53 2.48 2.90 1.79 3.16

A)

Using the online linear regression calculator, the lie of best fit which models the data above is :

ŷ = 0.09386X - 15.55523

Where ;

X = independent variable

ŷ = predicted or dependent variable

- 15.55523 = intercept

0.09386 = gradient / slope

B)

Point estimate when tank temperature is 186

ŷ = 0.09386(186) - 15.55523

ŷ = 17.45796 - 15.55523

ŷ = 1.90273

C)

Residual error (y - ŷ), ŷ = 1.90273 when x = 186

(0.94 - 1.90273) = −0.96273

(1.85 - 1.90273) = −0.05273

(2.02 - 1.90273) = 0.11727

(2.64 - 1.90273) = 0.73727

D)

To determine the proportion of observed variation in efficiency ratio, we find the Coefficient of determination R^2, which can be found using the online Coefficient of determination calculator : the r^2 value obtained is 0.4433.

Answer:

$\text{Exact: }AB=25\sqrt{6},\\\text{Rounded: }AB\approx 61.24$

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Law of Sines to find segment AD, which happens to be a leg of $\triangle ACD$ and the hypotenuse of $\triangle ADB$ .

The Law of Sines states that the ratio of any angle of a triangle and its opposite side is maintained through the triangle:

$\frac{a}{\sin \alpha}=\frac{b}{\sin \beta}=\frac{c}{\sin \gamma}$

Since we're given the length of CD, we want to find the measure of the angle opposite to CD, which is $\angle CAD$ . The sum of the interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degrees. Thus, we have:

$\angle CAD+\angle ACD+\angle CDA=180^{\circ},\\\angle CAD+60^{\circ}+75^{\circ}=180^{\circ},\\\angle CAD=180^{\circ}-75^{\circ}-60^{\circ},\\\angle CAD=45^{\circ}$

Now use this value in the Law of Sines to find AD:

$\frac{AD}{\sin 60^{\circ}}=\frac{100}{\sin 45^{\circ}},\\\\AD=\sin 60^{\circ}\cdot \frac{100}{\sin 45^{\circ}}$

Recall that $\sin 45^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}$ and $\sin 60^{\circ}=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$ :

$AD=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\cdot 100}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}},\\\\AD=\frac{50\sqrt{3}}{\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2}},\\\\AD=50\sqrt{3}\cdot \frac{2}{\sqrt{2}},\\\\AD=\frac{100\sqrt{3}}{\sqrt{2}}\cdot\frac{ \sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2}}=\frac{100\sqrt{6}}{2}={50\sqrt{6}}$

Now that we have the length of AD, we can find the length of AB. The right triangle $\triangle ADB$ is a 30-60-90 triangle. In all 30-60-90 triangles, the side lengths are in the ratio $x:x\sqrt{3}:2x$ , where $x$ is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle and $2x$ is the length of the hypotenuse.

Since AD is the hypotenuse, it must represent $2x$ in this ratio and since AB is the side opposite to the 30 degree angle, it must represent $x$ in this ratio (Derive from basic trig for a right triangle and $\sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}$ ).

Therefore, AB must be exactly half of AD:

$AB=\frac{1}{2}AD,\\AB=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\sqrt{6},\\AB=\frac{50\sqrt{6}}{2}=\boxed{25\sqrt{6}}\approx 61.24$
