If construction costs are $160,000 per kilometer, find the cost of building the new road in the figure

Mathematics

Shkiper50 [21]3 years ago

Answer:

$4,160,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Using Pythagorean Theorem, find the length of the new road in km.

pythagorean theorem formula is given as, c² = b² + a², where,

c = lenght of new road

b = 10,000 m = 10 km

a = 24,000 m = 24 km

(Note: 1 km = 1,000 m)

Plug the values into the formula:

c² = 10² + 24² = 100 + 576

c² = 676

Square both sides

√c² = √676

c = 26 km

Step 2: find the cost for constructing the new road

1 km cost $160,00

26 km would cost: 26*160,000

= $4,160,000

For a certain​ automobile,
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The answer is

a) <u>2,128 miles per gallon at 40,36 miles per hour</u>

b) <u>1,388 miles per gallon at 60 miles per hour</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the extreme points of M(x) for 30≤x≤60. M(x) simplified by dividing to 7.8.

M(x) = -1,92.10^-3x^2+0,155x-1

To find extreme points we find tangent of M(x) and equal it to 0.

M'(x) = -3,84.10^-3x+0,155=0

therefore x=\frac{-0,155}{-3,84.10^-^3} = 40,36

This divides our x to 2 different range 30≤x≤40,36 and 40,36≤x≤60

Now we pick a number and investigate from the ranges

30≤x≤40,36   →    x = 35    →    <u>M'(35) = 0,0206</u><u> which is </u><u>> 0</u><u> and that means M is increasing</u>

40,36≤x≤60   →    x = 45   →    <u>M'(45) = -0,0178</u><u> which is </u><u>< 0 </u><u>and that means M is decreasing</u>

Next let's look at critical points

   x                  M(x)          Before              After             Decision

  30                1,922              -                       ↑             Local Minimum Point

  40,36           2,128             ↑                       ↓             Local Maximum Point

  60                1,388             ↓                       -              Local Minimum Point

As we can see (30, 1,922) and (60, 1,388) are<u> local minimum points</u> and (40,36 , 2,128) is the <u>local maximum point</u>.

Since (60 , 1,388) is the <u>lowest local minimum point</u> it is the absolute minimum point and (40,36 , 2,128) is the absolute maximum point.

A line with a slope of – 5 passes through the points (3,n) and (4, – 5). What is the value of n?
masha68 [24]

Answer:

n = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

slope = y2-y1/x2-x1

so

-5 -n / 4-3 = -5

-5 -n /1 =-5

-5 - n = -5

n = 0
