A ship anchored in a port has a ladder which hangs over the side. The length of the ladder is 200cm, the distance between each r

ung in 20cm and the bottom rung touches the water. The tide rises at a rate of 10cm an hour. When will the water reach the fifth rung

Answer:

The answer to your question is 8 h

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

length of the ladder = 200 cm

distance between each rung = 20 cm

rate = 10 cm/h

fifth rung = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the total distance the tide must rise

distance = 20 cm x 4

              = 80 cm              because the first rung touches the water

2.- Calculate the time

rate = distance / time

-Solve for time

time = distance / rate

-Substitution

time = 80 cm / 10cm/h

-result

time = 8 h

Determine the common ratio and find the next three terms of the geometric sequence t8, t5, t2
attashe74 [19]
The common ratio of the given geometric sequence is the number that is multiplied to the first term in order to get the second term. Consequently, this is also the number multiplied to the second term to get the third term. This cycle goes on and on until a certain term is acquired. In this item, the common ratio r is,

    r = t⁵/t⁸ = t²/t⁵

The answer, r = t⁻³.

The next three terms are,

    n₄ = (t²)(t⁻³) = t⁻¹
    n₅ = (t⁻¹)(t⁻³) = t⁻⁴
    n₆ = (t⁻⁴)(t⁻³) = t⁻⁷

The answers for the next three terms are as reflected above as n₄, n₅, and n₆, respectively.

Find the line y=a+bx which best approximates the data points
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

y = 11.84x - 32.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given data points,

(−3,−70),(−1,−42),(1,−21),(2,−9),(4,14),

Let x represents the input value and y represents the output value,

So, the table that represents the given situation is,

x         -3            -1             1             2             4

y       -70          -42         -21         -9             14

By the above table,

\sum x=3

\sum y=-128

\sum xy = 269

\sum x^2=31

\sum y^2 = 7382

Let the equation of the line is,

y = bx + a

Where,

a=\frac{\sum y \sum x^2 - \sum x\sum xy}{n(\sum x^2)-(sum x)^2}

b=\frac{n\sum xy - \sum x \sumy}{n(\sum x^2)-(\sum x)^2}

n = number of data points = 5,

By substituting the values we get,

a = - 32.70547945 ≈ - 32.71,

b = 11.84246575 ≈ 11.84,

Hence, the equation of line would be,

y = 11.84x - 32.71
