4. A group of friends rents a boat to spend an afternoon on a lake. The boat rental has a flat fee of $180 for up to three hours

Answer:

it is D c= 180 + 50h + 20p

Step-by-step explanation:

c is the total cost and the boat is 180 but for additional hour it would be +$50

now the first four passenger is free but if another person comes on then it would be +$20 hope this help

Please help!! x = 2 - 3 cos t, y = 1 + 4 sin t in rectangular form?<br><br> thank you! :)

Answer:

$\frac{(x-2)^2}{9}+\frac{(y-1)^2}{16}=1$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=2-3\cos(t)$

$y=1+4\sin(t)$

Let's solve for $\cos(t)$ in the first equation and then solve for $\sin(t)$ in the second equation.

I will then use the following identity to get right of the parameter, $t$ :

$\cos^2(t)+\sin^2(t)=1$ (Pythagorean Identity).

Let's begin with $x=2-3\cos(t)$ .

Subtract 2 on both sides:

$x-2=-3\cos(t)$

Divide both sides by -3:

$\frac{x-2}{-3}=\cos(t)$

Now time for the second equation, $y=1+4\sin(t)$ .

Subtract 1 on both sides:

$y-1=4\sin(t)$

Divide both sides by 4:

$\frac{y-1}{4}=\sin(t)$

Now let's plug it into our Pythagorean Identity:

$\cos^2(t)+\sin^2(t)=1$

$\frac{x-2}{-3})^2+(\frac{y-1}{4})^2=1$

$\frac{(x-2)^2}{(-3)^2}+\frac{(y-1)^2}{4^2}=1$

$\frac{(x-2)^2}{9}+\frac{(y-1)^2}{16}=1$

Limit question: lim x-->pi ((e^sinx)-1)/(x-pi)

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

$\displaystyle\lim_{x\to\pi}\dfrac{e^{\sin x}-1}{x-\pi}$

Notice that if $f(x)=e^{\sin x}$ , then $f(\pi)=e^{\sin\pi}=e^0=1$ . Recall the definition of the derivative of a function $f(x)$ at a point $x=c$ :

$f'(c):=\displaystyle\lim_{x\to c}\frac{f(x)-f(c)}{x-c}$

So the value of this limit is exactly the value of the derivative of $f(x)=e^{\sin x}$ at $x=\pi$ .

You have

$f'(x)=\cos x\,e^{\sin x}\implies f'(\pi)=\cos\pi\,e^{\sin\pi}=-1$

The altitude of a plane is 1,600 ft. What must be the altitude of a submarine so that the sum of their altitudes is 0?

RSB [31]

You must mean the depth of the submarine.

to make sum = zero the depth of the sub must be -1600 ft..
