Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ignore the "at the instant the man is 30 feet away" part, set it as X and the man's shadow as Y.
Similar triangles so we can do
.
Solve for it we get 44y = 6x
Differentiate relative to time t, we get 44y' = 6x'.
change in x (x') is equal to 5. And we get the answer y' =
.
the
ft/sec is the rate of which the length of the shadow is changing. add 5 to it for the rate of the tip of his shadow moving away from the tower.
Answer:
-21
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume this is a 2 by 2 matrix.

determinant = -5 * 4 - 1 * 1 = -20 - 1 = -21
I don’t think it is, sorry I’m not 100% sure, good luck though
EHRP, EHFG, EFPQ Does that make sense?
The Pythagorean theorem is with right triangles. You know that a right triangle is formed from first to the mound to home-plate. So when you draw it out and label the sides you have one missing side. the Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = C^2. the c side is always the slanted side. In this case the c side would be from homeplate to first base. So you just have to solve now. (33)^2 + (50)^2 = c^2. So 1089 + 2500 = c^2. Add together and you get: 3589 = c^2. Lastly take the square-root of 3589 and that is the answer. 59.9. So the answer is 59.9 feet.
