Answer:

The rate of change of the distance \frac{ds}{dt} when x = 9 and y = 12 is -7.6\:\frac{m}{s}.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of a related rate problem. A related rate problem is a problem in which we know one of the rates of change at a given instant \frac{dx}{dt} and we want to find the other rate \frac{dy}{dt} at that instant.

We know the rate of change of x-coordinate and y-coordinate:

\frac{dx}{dt}=-2\:\frac{m}{s} \\\\\frac{dy}{dt}=-8\:\frac{m}{s}

We want to find the rate of change of the distance \frac{ds}{dt} when x = 9 and y = 12.

The distance of a point (x, y) and the origin is calculated by:

s=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}

We need to use the concept of implicit differentiation, we differentiate each side of an equation with two variables by treating one of the variables as a function of the other.

If we apply implicit differentiation in the formula of the distance we get

s=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}\\\\s^2=x^2+y^2\\\\2s\frac{ds}{dt}= 2x\frac{dx}{dt}+2y\frac{dy}{dt}\\\\\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{1}{s}(x\frac{dx}{dt}+y\frac{dy}{dt})

Substituting the values we know into the above formula

s=\sqrt{9^2+12^2}=15

\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{1}{15}(9(-2)+12(-8))\\\\\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{1}{15}\left(-18-96\right)\\\\\frac{ds}{dt}=\frac{1}{15}(-114)=-\frac{38}{5}=-7.6\:\frac{m}{s}

The rate of change of the distance \frac{ds}{dt} when x = 9 and y = 12 is -7.6\:\frac{m}{s}

Naomi requires 2.75 pounds of cream cheese for a cake. She has 4 ounces of cream cheese. Cream cheese is available in the store
Softa [21]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

1 pound = 16 ounces

total ounces needed = 2.75 x 16 = 44 pounds

Ounces of cake she needs = 44 - 4 = 40

Minimum blocks needed = ounces needed / ounces of each block

40 / 8 = 5

Find the distance between the points (1,8) and (9, 2).
grin007 [14]

Answer:

distance = \sqrt{(x_{1} -x_{2})^2+(y_{1} -y_{2})^2  }\\\\

             =\sqrt{(9-1)^2+(2-8)^2  }\\\\=\sqrt{8^2 + 6^2}\\\\=\sqrt{64 +36 }\\\\=\sqrt{100} = 10units

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Hi there!

The answer to this question is (B) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the order of operations, you first solve what it is inside of the parenthesis, which in this case is (4-2), that equals to 2.

then you need to figure out what multiply by 2 gets 8. Out of all the answer choice (B) fits perfectly.

Given the function f(x) = 3x + 1 what is f(-2)?
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

-5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(-2) means that -2 is going to be our input in this function.

To solve this, simply substitute -2 for x in the expression given.

If f(x) = 3x+1, then f(-2) = 3(-2) + 1

3(-2)+1 = -6+1 = -5

Hope this helped!
