Answer:

8.6 km/hr

Explanation:

It looks like there's a lot of extra information here. If the question only asks about the trip from Rohn to Nikolai, then the only information that matters is that the distance between the two is 121 km & that Seavey did it in 14 hours. Don't let the extra numbers throw you off.

As for the math behind this - km/hr is a math equation in and of itself. Any ratio like that is a simple division problem. Just plug your numbers (121 km / 14 hr) into the formula (km / hr) to get your answer!

EDIT: for future questions where they don't label it as clearly... velocity = the distance divided by the time.

The graph of x^2=-2+y+5cosy is shown for y=11
erik [133]

(a)

We have been given an equation x^{2}=-2+y+5cosy. Upon taking derivative of this equation with respect to x on both the sides, we get:

2x=0+\frac{dy}{dx}+5(-siny)\frac{dy}{dx}\\2x=(1-5siny)\frac{dy}{dx}\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2x}{1-5siny}

(b)

In order to write the equation of tangent line, we need to find the slope of the line. We know that point (3,11) lies on the graph. Therefore, we write the slope of the tangent as:

\text{Slope}=\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2(3)}{1-5sin(11)}=1

Therefore, equation of tangent line is:

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})\Rightarrow y-11=1(x-3)\\y-11=x-3\\y=x+8

(c)

We know that slope of tangent is given as \frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{2x}{1-5siny}. The tangent will be vertical when denominator of slope is zero, that is:

1-5siny=0\Rightarrow siny=\frac{1}{5}\Rightarrow y=arcsin(\frac{1}{5})\\y=1.732,1.525, 3.063 \text{ etc.}
