The motion of a ship riding at anchor can be modeled by y=25-4 cos (pi/6)t, where y is the water depth in feet and t is the time

in hours. Consider a day in which t=0 represents 12:00 midnight. At what time during that day will the water under the ship be the deepest and what time will it be shallowest? What will the water’s depth be at these times?

Answer: 29 feet (deepest) at 6 am

              21 feet (shallowest) at Midnight & Noon

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

y = -4 cos (π/6)t +25

Amplitude (A) = 4    

-A means it is a reflection over the x-axis (starts at minimum)<em> </em>

Period = 2π/B   →  Period = 12

Phase shift = C/B   →  Phase Shift = 0

Midline (D) = 25

Midline (D) ± Amplitude (A) = Max & Min

Max: 25 + 4 = 29

Min: 25 - 4 = 21

Change the coordinates of y = cos (x) as follows:

  • x-value: Add C then divide by B
  • y-value: Multiply by A then add D

Note that the equation shows: A = -4, B = π/6, C = 0, D = 25

\begin{array}{c|ccc|cl}\underline{\quad x\quad}&\underline{\quad y\quad}&&\underline{\quad (x+C)/B\quad}&\underline{\quad Ay+D\quad}\\0&1&&0&21&minimum\\\pi&0&&3&25&midline\\\pi &-1&&6&29&maximum\\3\pi/2&0&&9&25&midline\\2\pi&1&&12&21&minimum\\\end{array}

The diameter of a circle is 1.4 centimeters. Find its area. Use 3.14 Round to the nearest
NeTakaya

Answer:

Area = 1.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = πr^{2}

π = 3.14

diameter = 1.4

radius (half of diameter) = 0.7

Area = 3.14 x 0.7^{2}

Area = 3.14 x 0.49

Area = 1.5386

round to the nearest hundredth:

1.5386 = 1.54

The children from a football club are put into rows in the sports hall. When put into rows of 9 children, there are 2 children l
g100num [7]

We are told that the children from a football club are put into rows in the sports hall. When put into rows of 9 children there are 2 children left over. When put into rows of 12 children there are 2 children left over.

We will find least number of children in football club by finding LCM of 9 and 12.

Multiples of 9 are: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63,...

Multiples of 12 are: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84,...

We can see that least common multiple of 9 and 12 is 36.

We are told that 2 children left over from putting them into 9 and 12 children per row. To find least number we will add 2 to 36.

9\cdot4+2=36+2=38

12\cdot3+2=36+2=38      

\text{Least number of children in football club}=36+2=38

Therefore, the least number of children in the football club is 38.
