Following a severe​ snowstorm, Ken and Bettina Reeves must clear their driveway and sidewalk. Ken can clear the snow by himself

in 2 ​hours, and Bettina can clear the snow by herself in 5 hours. After Bettina has been working for 1-hour, Ken is able to join her. How much longer will it take them working together to remove the rest of the​ snow?

Answer:

It will take 5.6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

If Ken (K) can clear in two hours and bettina (B) in five hours then;

5K=2B; If B=1 K=2/5 = 0.4 (2-0.4=1.6) plus 4 from B are 5.6 or also: If B=4 (Bettina started 1 hour later 5-1=4) K=8/5=1.6 then K+B=1.6+4=5.6 h

The velocity function, in feet per second, is given for a particle moving along a straight line. Find (a) the displacement and (
AveGali [126]

Answer:

(a) 2 feet.

(b) 2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the velocity function v(t)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} in feet per second, is given for a particle moving along a straight line.

(a) We are asked to find the displacement over the interval 1\leq t\leq 4.

Since velocity is derivative of position function , so to find the displacement (position shift) from the velocity function, we need to integrate the velocity function.

\int\limits^b_a {v(t)} \, dt

\int\limits^4_1 {\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}}} \, dt

\int\limits^4_1 {\frac{1}{t^{\frac{1}{2}}} \, dt

\int\limits^4_1 t^{-\frac{1}{2}} \, dt

Using power rule, we will get:

\left[\frac{t^{-\frac{1}{2}+1}}{-\frac{1}{2}+1}}\right] ^4_1

\left[\frac{t^{\frac{1}{2}}}{\frac{1}{2}}}\right] ^4_1

\left[2t^{\frac{1}{2}}\right] ^4_1  

2(4)^{\frac{1}{2}}-2(1)^{\frac{1}{2}}=2(2)-2=4-2=2

Therefore, the total displacement on the interval  1\leq t\leq 4 would be 2 feet.

(b). For distance we need to integrate the absolute value of the velocity function.

\int\limits^b_a |{v(t)|} \, dt

\int\limits^4_1 |{\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}}}| \, dt

Since square root is not defined for negative numbers, so our integral would be \int\limits^4_1 {\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}}} \, dt.

We already figured out that the value of \int\limits^4_1 {\frac{1}{\sqrt{t}}} \, dt is 2 feet, therefore, the total distance over the interval 1\leq t\leq 4 would be 2 feet.

PLS HELP ME GRADUATE ILL MARK BRAINLY A-AND ILL GIVE U A COOKIE!!! PLS
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

Dilate circle A by a scale factor of 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dilating circle A by 4 would be the same as multiplying its radius of 6 by 4, which would make it 24.

The radius of circle B is 24.

Rotating it wouldn't change anything (it's a circle), and I don't think reflecting and translating show circle similarity
