You're flying from Joint Base Lewis-McChord (JBLM) to an undisclosed location 201 km south and 194 km east. Mt. Rainier is locat

ed approximately 56 km east and 40 km south of JBLM. If you are flying at a constant speed of 800 km/hr, how long after you depart JBLM will you be the closest to Mt. Rainier?

Answer:

The answer is "0.0846276476".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let all the origin(0,0) of JBLM be  

Let the y-axis be north along with the vector j unit.  

But along the + ve x-axis is east, and all along with the vector unit i.  

And at (194,-201) that undisclosed position is  

Mt. Ris (56,-40) at  

Let the moment it gets close to the Mt. rainier bet.  

Oh, then,  

If we know, the parallel to the direction from the point was its nearest one to a path to a point,

Calculating slope:

\to m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\

points:  (0,0) and (194,-201)

\to m=\frac{-201 -0 }{194-0}\\\\\to m=\frac{-201}{194}\\\\\to m=-1.03

equation of the line:

\to y= mx+c\\\\\to y= -1.03\ x+c

when the slope is perpendicular= -\frac{1}{m}

                                                     = - \frac{1}{ -1.03}\\\\= \frac{1}{ 1.03}\\\\= 0.97

perpendicular equation:

\to y-(-40)=0.97  \times (x-56) \\\\\to y+40=0.97  \times (x-56) \\\\

Going to solve both of the equations to have the intersection point,  

We get to the intersect level in order to be at

(47.16,-48.5748)

so the distance from origin:

= \sqrt{(47.16^2+48.5748^2)}\\\\= \sqrt{2224.0656 + 2359.5112}\\\\=\sqrt{4583.5768}\\\\=67.7021181

\to time =\frac{distance }{speed}

= \frac{67.7021181}{800}\\\\= 0.0846276476

if you divide a positive number by 12, the answer would be less than the original number? always, sometimes, or never​
elena55 [62]

Answer:

Always

Step-by-step explanation:

The rules for positive numbers is that addition and multiplication makes numbers larger. Subtraction and division makes numbers smaller.

Since 12 is a positive number, the result of dividing a positive number by 12 will make it smaller.

Which equations represent the line that is perpendicular to the line 5x − 2y = −6 and passes through the point (5, −4)? Select t
nignag [31]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

On the other hand we have that if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1. So:

m_ {1} * m_ {2} = - 1

The given line is:

5x-2y = -6\\-2y = -6-5x\\2y = 5x + 6\\y = \frac {5} {2} x + \frac {6} {2}\\y = \frac {5} {2} x + 3

So we have:

m_ {1} = \frac {5} {2}

We find m_ {2}:m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {\frac {5} {2}}\\m = - \frac {2} {5}

So, a line perpendicular to the one given is of the form:

y = - \frac {2} {5} x + b

We substitute the given point to find "b":

-4 = - \frac {2} {5} (5) + b\\-4 = -2 + b\\-4 + 2 = b\\b = -2

Finally we have:

y = - \frac {2} {5} x-2

In point-slope form we have:

y - (- 4) = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)\\y + 4 = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)

ANswer:

y = - \frac {2} {5} x-2\\y + 4 = - \frac {2} {5} (x-5)
