Answer:

The area is rational because the numbers in the formula are rational.

Step-by-step explanation:

All repeating decimals are still rational because they can be expressed as fractions. For example,

$\frac{1}{7}=0.\overline{142857}$\end{document}

So every recurring decimal must be a fraction.

Also every terminating decimal can be represented as a fraction.

0.25  =  \frac{1}{4}

So  the area is rational because the numbers are rational.

Area = \frac{1}{2} X Base X Height

Base is Rational and Height is Rational. Hence Area=Rational.

When these rational numbers are substituted into the formula,the area must be rational.

Find the solution of the differential equation that satisfies the given initial condition. y' tan x = 3a + y, y(π/3) = 3a, 0 &lt
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

y(x)=4a\sqrt{3}* sin(x)-3a

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a separable equation, first let's rewrite the equation as:

\frac{dy(x)}{dx} =\frac{3a+y}{tan(x)}

But:

\frac{1}{tan(x)} =cot(x)

So:

\frac{dy(x)}{dx} =cot(x)*(3a+y)

Multiplying both sides by dx and dividing both sides by 3a+y:

\frac{dy}{3a+y} =cot(x)dx

Integrating both sides:

\int\ \frac{dy}{3a+y} =\int\cot(x) \, dx

Evaluating the integrals:

log(3a+y)=log(sin(x))+C_1

Where C1 is an arbitrary constant.

Solving for y:

y(x)=-3a+e^{C_1} sin(x)

e^{C_1} =constant

So:

y(x)=C_1*sin(x)-3a

Finally, let's evaluate the initial condition in order to find C1:

y(\frac{\pi}{3} )=3a=C_1*sin(\frac{\pi}{3})-3a\\ 3a=C_1*\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2} -3a

Solving for C1:

C_1=4a\sqrt{3}

Therefore:

y(x)=4a\sqrt{3}* sin(x)-3a

Which graph shows a line with the same y intercept as the graph of 10x - 16y = 40
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The graph option where the y-axis is intercepted at y = -2.5 by the line of the graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer choices for the possible graphs that have the same y-intercept as the graph of 10x - 16y = 40 is missing here.

However, the answer can still be explained here.

We can figure out how the graph would look like.

First, understand that the y-intercept of a graph is the value of y, of the point where the line intercepts the y-axis.

Let's figure out what the y-intercept is given a graph represented by the equation, 10x - 16y = 40.

Rewrite the equation in slope-intercept form.

10x - 16y = 40

-16y = -10x + 40

y = -10x/-16 + 40/-16

y = ⅝x - ⁵/2

Therefore, the y-intercept of the graph of 10x - 16y = 40 is -⁵/2 or -2.5.

✅The graph shows a line with the same y-intercept as the graph of 10x - 16y = 40, would have it's y-axis intercepted at y = -2.5.

Find the distance between X (5, 7) and Y (-6, 6).<br> Round answer to the nearest tenth.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:  11.0  or 11

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the distance first find the difference between the coordinates. find the change in the x and y coordinates and square them to add them to get a number and find the square root of that same number to find the distance.

x coordinates:   5-(-6)= 11

y coordinate:  7-6 =  -1  

Now square them

11^2 + 1^2 = l^2    where l is the distance

121 + 1 = l^2

 122 =l^2

 l =  \sqrt{122}

  l  =  11.045   Rounded to the nearest tenth is 11.0
