A golfball is hit from the ground with an initial velocity of 200 ft/sec. The horizontal distance that the golfball will travel,

D in feet, depends on the angle in which it is hit, in radians, according to the function: Find the absolute maximum of on the applied interval [0, π/2] using the Closed Interval Method, and interpret the result in the context of the problem using a full sentence with units.

Answer:

The golfball launched with an initial velocity of 200ft/s will travel the maximum possible distance which is 1250 ft when it is hit at an angle of \pi/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula from the maximum distance of a projectile with initial height h=0, is:

d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2\theta)}{g}

Where v_i is the initial velocity.

In the closed interval method, the first step is to find the values of the function in the critical points in the interval which is [0, \pi/2]. The critical  points of the function are those who make d'(\theta)=0:

d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2\sin(2\theta)}{g}\\d'(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2\cos(2\theta)}{g}*(2)\\d'(\theta)=\frac{2v_i^2\cos(2\theta)}{g}

d'(\theta)=0\\\frac{2v_i^2\cos(2\theta)}{g}=0\\\cos(2\theta)=0\\2\theta=\pi/2,3\pi/2,5\pi/2,...\\\theta=\pi/4,3\pi/4,5\pi/4,...

The critical value inside the interval is \pi/4.

d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2(\pi/4))}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{v_i^2sin(\pi/2)}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{v_i^2(1)}{g}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{(200)^2}{32}\\d(\pi/4)=\frac{40000}{32}\\d(\pi/4)=1250ft

The second step is to find the values of the function at the endpoints of the interval:

d(\theta)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2\theta)}{g}\\\theta=0\\d(0)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2(0))}{g}\\d(0)=\frac{v_i^2(0)}{g}=0ft\\\theta=\pi/2\\d(\pi/2)=\frac{v_i^2sin(2(\pi/2))}{g}\\d(\pi/2)=\frac{v_i^2sin(\pi)}{g}\\d(\pi/2)=\frac{v_i^2(0)}{g}=0ft

The biggest value of f is gived by \pi/4, therefore \pi/4 is the absolute maximum.

In the context of the problem, the golfball launched with an initial velocity of 200ft/s will travel the maximum possible distance which is 1250 ft when it is hit at an angle of \pi/4.

Which function is the inverse of f(x) = 2x + 3?
lianna [129]

Answer:

y = 1/2x - 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to find the inverse is to switch x and y and solve for y.

y = 2x + 3

x = 2y + 3 (Switch)

x-3 = 2y (Subtract y from both sides)

x/2 - 3/2 = y (Divide both sides by 2)

PLEASE HELP!
Orlov [11]
We have that
<span>If (5x-4+13x=5) -------------->  then x=1/2
Step 1
</span>let's substitute the value of x = (1/2) in the expression [5x-4+13x] and verify its result
5*(1/2)-4+13*(1/2)
(5/2)-4+(13/2)
(5-4*2+13)/2----------> (5-8+13)/2=10/2=5
then 
5=5-----------> <span>the value of x = (1/2) satisfies equality</span>
