Answer: length = 27 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 2(l + w)

86 = 2(l + 16)

86 = 2l + 32

86 - 32 = 2l

l = 54/2 = 27 cm.

A. Find the amplitude.
Feliz [49]

Answers:

  • a) Amplitude = 2
  • b) Period = pi
  • c) Vertical shift = -2, which means it has been shifted down 2 units.
  • d) Horizontal shift = 3pi/8, this shifting is to the right.
  • e) There is <u>  one  </u> cycle between 0 and 2pi.
  • f) The equation of the graph is y = 2*sin(2(x-3pi/8))-2

========================================================

Explanations:

Part (a)

The highest point is when y = 0 and the lowest point is when y = -4. The vertical distance between the peak and valley is 4 units, which cuts in half to 2. This is the amplitude. It's the vertical distance from the center to either the peak or valley.

Note: Amplitude is always positive as it measures a distance.

---------------------

Part (b)

For x > 0, the first valley or lowest point occurs between 0 and pi/4. It appears to be the midpoint of the two values. So that would be (0+pi/4)/2 = pi/8.

The next valley occurs between pi and 5pi/4. Compute the midpoint to get (pi+5pi/4)/2 = (4pi/4+5pi/4)/2 = (9pi/4)/2 = 9pi/8

So we have the graph go from one valley x = pi/8 to the next valley over x = 9pi/8. This is a distance of pi units because 9pi/8-pi/8 = 8pi/8 = pi

The graph repeats itself every pi units, so the period is pi.

---------------------

Part (c)

The midline is normally through y = 0, aka the x axis. However, the graph shows the midline is through y = -2. This means the graph has been shifted down 2 units.

---------------------

Part (d)

This will depend on whether you use sine or cosine. This is entirely because cosine is a phase-shifted version of sine, and vice versa. I'll go with sine.

The parent sine function y = sin(x) goes through the origin (0,0)

However, as part (c) mentioned, we shifted the graph 2 units down. So we have y = sin(x)-2. But plugging x = 0 into this leads to the point (0,-2)

This doesn't match what the graph says. The graph shows the point (3pi/8, -2) on the red curve. The x coordinate 3pi/8 is the midpoint of pi/4 and pi/2

This must mean we need to shift the sine graph 3pi/8 units to the right.

---------------------

Part (e)

Start at the lowest point when x = pi/8. If you start the cycle here, then it ends when x = 9pi/8. See part (b).

So far we've completed one cycle. If we start at x = 9pi/8, then the next valley or lowest point is slightly beyond or to the right of x = 2pi. This means we run out of room and we haven't completed a full cycle.

Overall, one full cycle is between 0 and 2pi.

---------------------

Part (f)

Again I'm going to use sine instead of cosine. Refer back to part (d).

The general sine curve equation is

y = A*sin(B(x-C))+D

where

  • |A| = amplitude
  • B handles the period, specifically T = 2pi/B where T is the period. We can solve for B to get B = 2pi/T
  • C = horizontal phase shift
  • D = vertical shift, and ties together with the midline equation

In this case, we found that

  • |A| = 2
  • T = pi leads to B = 2pi/T = 2pi/pi = 2
  • C = 3pi/8
  • D = -2

So,

y = A*sin(B(x-C))+D

will update to

y = 2*sin(2(x-3pi/8))-2

which is one way to express the equation of the red curve. Optionally you can distribute the 2 through to (x-3pi/8).

A car travels 17 miles on one gallon of gas
zmey [24]

When x =170, y =10, when x = 187, y = 1, when x = 204, y = 12, when x = 221, y = 13, when x = 238, y = 14, when x = 255, y = 15, when x = 272, y = 16, when x = 289, y = 17, when x = 306, y = 18, when x = 323, y = 19, when x = 340, y = 20,

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; Assume y is the gallons in the tank while x is the range of the car. We need to determine the equation relating the y to the x values in the given coordinates. x is the dependent value whereas y is the independent value i.e. the value of x depends on the value of y.

Step 2; As y increases, x also increases. For every extra gallon in the tank, the car can go another 17 miles. So with y as the amount of gas in the tank in gallons and x as the range of vehicle, we get;

x = 17y, this represents the relation between x and y.

To find the gallons in the tank, y = \frac{x}{17},

For x = 170, y = \frac{170}{17} = 10,

Similarly equating the values we get that when x = 187, y = 11,

when x = 204, y = 12,

when x = 221, y = 13,

when x = 238, y = 14,

when x = 255, y = 15,

when x = 272, y = 16,

when x = 289, y = 17,

when x = 306, y = 18,

when x = 323, y = 19,

when x = 340, y = 20,

Marcus spent 10 hours doing his homework last week. This week he spent 11 hours doing homework. He says that he spent 110% more
swat32

Answer:

Yes he is correct, If it was 100% then it would stay the same 10 hours. But since it's 110%, it is in fact 11.
