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

He cost, in millions of dollars, of building a three-story high school in new york state was estimated to be c(x) = 2.1 + 0.12x
ratelena [41]

Given cost function is

c(x) = 2.1 + 0.12x - 0.0001x^2 (20 ≤ x ≤ 400)

where x is the number of thousands of square feet

total revenue will be $0.2 million dollars per thousand square feet

Revenue is 0.2 millions per thousand square feet. we know x is the number of thousand of square feet

So R(x) = 0.2x

We know Profit = Revenue - Cost

P(x) = R(x) - C(x)

P(x) = 0.2x - (2.1 + 0.12x - 0.0001x^2)

P(x) = 0.2x - 2.1 - 0.12x + 0.0001x^2)

combine like terms

P(x) =-2.1 + 0.08x + 0.0001x^2

Profit function is

P(x) =0.0001x^2 + 0.08x - 2.1

Complete the equation of the line through (−8,8), and (1,-10 ). Use exact numbers. Help me please my dog just died and I want to
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: (Mayadc821 wrote this anwser check theyre account for more)

Since you know the x and y values, you just have to plug these into the linear slope-intercept equation:

y = mx + b

-10 = m(1) + b

m + b = -10

b = -10 - m

Now that we have a value for b, we can plug this into the other equation:

8 = m(-8) + b

8 = -8m + (-10 - m)

8 = -9m -10

18 = -9m

m = -2

Now that we know what m is equal to, we can plug this into our first equation to get an answer for b:

b = -10 - m

b = -10 -(-2)

b = -10 + 2

b = -8

Our final equation is y = -2x - 8

Hector paints a picture which is 10 inches longer than it is wide. When he frames it, the outside dimensions (that is the length
Step2247 [10]
X * (x + 10) = y - 40
(x + 2)(x + 12) = y
x^2 + 10x = x^2 + 14x + 24 - 40
10x = 14x - 16
-4x = -16
x = 4
4 + 10 = 14
The length of the original painting is 14 inches long.
