A balloon is rising at a constant speed of 5 ftys. A boy is cycling along a straight road at a speed of 15 ftys. When he passes

under the balloon, it is 45 ft above him. How fast is the distance between the boy and the balloon increasing 3 s later?

Answer:

  13 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

t seconds after the boy passes under the balloon the distance between them is ...

  d = √((15t)² +(45+5t)²) = √(250t² +450t +2025)

The rate of change of d with respect to t is ...

  dd/dt = (500t +450)/(2√(250t² +450t +2025)) = (50t +45)/√(10t² +18t +81)

At t=3, this derivative evaluates to ...

  dd/dt = (50·3 +45)/√(90+54+81) = 195/15 = 13

The distance between the boy and the balloon is increasing at the rate of 13 ft per second.

_____

The boy is moving horizontally at 15 ft/s, so his position relative to the spot under the balloon is 15t feet after t seconds.

The balloon starts at 45 feet above the boy and is moving upward at 5 ft/s, so its vertical distance from the spot under the balloon is 45+5t feet after t seconds.

The straight-line distance between the boy and the balloon is found as the hypotenuse of a right triangle with legs 15t and (45+5t). Using the Pythagorean theorem, that distance is ...

  d = √((15t)² + (45+5t)²)

Which of the following statements is not true concerning the equation x2−c=0 for c>0? A. The​ left-hand side of this equation
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

The correct option is;

B. This equation is not considered to be a quadratic equation because it is not in the form a·x² + b·x + c = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The given equation, x² - c = 0, can be presented in the form of the difference of two squares as follows;

(x + √c)·(x - √c) = 0

B. The equation x² - c = 0, is a quadratic equation because it is a polynomial equation of degree 2

C.  The equation x² - c = 0 can always be factored as (x + √c)·(x - √c) = 0

D. Where c > 0, the equation x² - c = 0 can by the square root property as follows;

x² - c = 0

x² = c

x = √c
