For a short time after a wave is created by wind, the height of the wave can be modeled using y = a sin 2πt/T, where a is the am

plitude and T is the period of the wave in seconds.
How many times over the first 5 seconds does the graph predict the wave to be 2 feet high?

The graph hits \fbox{\begin\\\ \dfrac{10}{T}+2\\\end{minispace}} times over 2 feet for a>2.

Further explanation:  

The height of the wave is given by the equation as follows:  

y=asin\left(\dfrac{2\pi t}{T}\right)                          ......(1)

Here, a is amplitude, T is period of wave in second and t time in seconds.  

The height y of the wave is given as 2 feet and time t is given as 5 seconds.  

Substitute 2 for y and 5 for t in equation (1).  

2=asin\left(\dfrac{2\pi \times5}{T}\right)\\2=asin\left(\dfrac{10\pi}{T}\right)\\\dfrac{2}{a}=sin\left(\dfrac{10\pi}{T}\right)

The above eqution is valid only for a\geq 2 because the maximum value of the term sin(10\pi /T) is 1.  

If T is the time period then in T seconds the graph will hit at least 2 times over 2 feet for a>2.

T seconds\rightarrow2 hits

1 seconds \rightarrow \dfrac{2}{T} hits

5 seconds \rightarrow\dfrac{2\times5}{T}

5 seconds \rightarrow \dfrac{10}{T}

If T is time period in 5 seconds then the graph will hit [10/T] times in interval 0 to 2\pi.

Thus, the graph hits \fbox{\begin\\\ \dfrac{10}{T}+2\\\end{minispace}} times over 2 feet for a>2.

On a map of North Carolina, the distance between Raleigh and Charlotte is 3 1/4 inches. The scale on the map is 1 inch = 40 mile
NISA [10]

Answer:

130 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object

the scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension

scale of the drawing = original dimensions / dimensions of the scale drawing

Actual distance = 31/4 x 40

convert 31/4 to an improper fraction

to convert to improper fraction, take the following steps :  

1. Multiply the whole number  by the denominator

2. Add the numerator to the answer gotten in the previous step

3. divide the number gotten in the previous step by the denominator  

13/4 x 40 = 130 miles

Select the equations where x = 8 is the solution. Select all that apply (select 3).
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x - 2 = 10

x = 10 + 2 = 12

2. 40 = 5x

40/5 = x

x = 8

3. x/2 = 8

Multiply by 2 on both sides

x = 16

4. x + 14 = 24

x = 24 - 14 = 10

5. x + 2 = 10

x = 10 - 2 = 8

6. x/8 = 1

Multiply by 8 on both sides

x = 8

No 2 5 and 6 is the correct answer
