A road perpendicular to a highway leads to a farmhouse located d miles away. An automobile traveling on this highway passes thro

ugh this intersection and continues at a constant speed of r mph. Compute how fast the distance betwen the automobile and the farmhouse is increasing when the automobile is 30 miles past the intersection of the highway and the road, in terms of d, and r.

Answer:

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{\sqrt{d^{2}+900}}

Step-by-step explanation:

A road is perpendicular to a highway leading to a farmhouse d miles away.

An automobile passes through the point of intersection with a constant speed \frac{dx}{dt} = r mph

Let x be the distance of automobile from the point of intersection and distance between the automobile and farmhouse is 'h' miles.

Then by Pythagoras theorem,

h² = d² + x²

By taking derivative on both the sides of the equation,

(2h)\frac{dh}{dt}=(2x)\frac{dx}{dt}

(h)\frac{dh}{dt}=(x)\frac{dx}{dt}

(h)\frac{dh}{dt}=rx

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{rx}{h}

When automobile is 30 miles past the intersection,

For x = 30

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{h}

Since h=\sqrt{d^{2}+(30)^{2}}

Therefore,

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{\sqrt{d^{2}+(30)^{2}}}

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{30r}{\sqrt{d^{2}+900}}

The list that orders the fractions from least to greatest is:

  • \frac{7}{12}, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{17}{24}, \frac{3}{4}

<h3>Ordering of fractions</h3>
  • To order the fractions from least to greatest, we have to realize their conversion to decimal.
  • To realize the conversion, the numerator is divided by the denominator, as ordering decimal numbers are easier than fractions.

Hence, the fractions converted to decimal are:

  • \frac{2}{3} = 0.6667.
  • \frac{7}{12} = 0.5833.
  • \frac{17}{24} = 0.7083
  • \frac{3}{4} = 0.75

Hence, the list from least to greatest is, according to the results of the conversions:

  • \frac{7}{12}, \frac{2}{3}, \frac{17}{24}, \frac{3}{4}

Answer:

x = -15/2

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we will simply use equation properties to solve for x.

2x - 5 = -20

2x - 5 + 5 = -20 + 5

2x = -15  ( Add positive 5 to both sides )

2x * (1/2) = -15 * (1/2)

x = -15/2  ( Multiply both sides by 1/2)

Hence, the solution to x is -15 / 2.

Cheers.
