Two airplanes left the same airport and arrived at the same destination at the same time. The first airplane left at 8:00 a.m. a

nd traveled at an average rate of 496 mph. The second airplane left at 8:30 a.m. and traveled at an average rate of 558 mph. How many hours did it take the first plane to travel to the destination?
Let x represent the number of hours that the first plane traveled.
Enter an equation that can be used to solve this problem in the first box.
Solve for x and enter the number of hours in the second box.

First plane: 496x
<span>Second plane:  558( x - 1/2) </span>

<span>Equation: 496x = 558( x - 1/2) </span>

<span>Solving  x = 9/2 ,  or  x = 4.5 hours.

Hope this helps.</span>

If 120 L of an acid solution is 75% acid, how much pure acid is there<br> in the mixture?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

25% or 30L

Step-by-step explanation:

100% is 120L, we know 75% is acid, we need the other 25% to make the 100%. 25% of 120 is 30, so 30 liters is pure acid

The maximum value of 12 sin 0-9 sin²0 is: -​
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not clear. You have indicated the original function as 12sin(0) - 9sin²(0)

If so, the solution is trivial. At 0, sin(0) is 0 so the solution is 0

However, I will assume you meant the angle to be \theta rather than 0 which makes sense and proceed accordingly

We can find the maximum or minimum of any function by finding the first derivate and setting it equal to 0

The original function is

f(\theta) = 12sin(\theta) - 9 sin^2(\theta)

Taking the first derivative of this with respect to \theta and setting it equal to 0 lets us solve for the maximum (or minimum) value

The first derivative of f(\theta) w.r.t \theta is

                        12\cos\left(\theta\right)-18\cos\left(\theta\right)\sin\left(\theta\right)

And setting this = 0 gives

12\cos\left(\theta\right)-18\cos\left(\theta\right)\sin\left(\theta\right) = 0

Eliminating cos(\theta) on both sides and solving for sin(\theta) gives us

sin(\theta) = \frac{12}{18} = \frac{2}{3}

Plugging this value of sin(\theta) into the original equation gives us

12(\frac{2}{3}) - 9(\frac{4}{9} ) = 8 - 4 = 4

This is the maximum value that the function can acquire. The attached graph shows this as correct
