Someone please help me in this question it is kind of confusing it is a question under pre calculus in first year calculus i wil
l post the picture after this.. So the question is . The accompanying figure shows a rectangle inscribed in a isoceles right triangle whose hypotenuse is 2 units long.. a) Express the y-coordinate of P in terms of x (You might start by writing and equation for the line AB). . b) Express the area of the rectangle in terms of x.
Neither P, nor A are on the sketch I guess P is the upper right corner of the rectangle and A=(0,1)
P belongs to the line going through (1,0) and B(0,y) <span>but we don't know the y-coordinate of B </span>
<span>the triangle is right and isosceles, so pythagoras a²+a²=2² ... 2a²=4 ... a²=2 ... a=sqrt2 </span> now look at the right triangle BOA <span>his hypotenuse is AB=sqrt2 and the <span>the kathete</span> OA is 1 </span> so y²+1²=(sqrt2)² ... y²+1=2 ... y²=1.. y=1 so the coordinates of B are (0,1)
the line going through (1,0) and (0,1) is L(x)=-x+1
P belongs to this line, so the coordinates of P are P(x,-x+1) (0<x<1)
b) so if that's P, the height of the rectangle is -x+1 and the width=2x <span>so its area A(x)=2x*(-x+1)= -2x²+2x
I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.
Each year, your $3,425 which earn 3% simple interest earns $102.75. Multiplying this value by 15 gives $1541.25. Then, adding the latest value we have with the initial invest will finally give us $4966.25. Thus, after 15 years Naomi will have $4966.25.
<span>Since they are playing in the space, gravity or the lack of it plays a huge role here. When the first astronaut throws the second astronaut toward the third one and due to the force exerted they would be moving in the opposite direction and there won't be any catch. Hence the game does not continue after the first throw.</span>
