Answer:

42 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression for the area of the triangular sail is \frac{1}{2}bh

Here b is the length of the base and h is the height.

Now, we have to find the the area of a triangular sail in a model sailboat when b=12 inches and h=7 inches.

Substituting these values in the above expression to find the area of the triangular sail.

A=\frac{1}{2}\times12\times7\\\\A=6\times7\\\\A=42\text{ square inches}

Therefore, the area of  triangular sail in a model sailboat when b=12 inches and h=7 inches is 42 square inches.

We can find this using the formula for arc length (where r is the radius of the circle and \theta is the central angle in radians):

\textrm{Arc Length} = r\theta


In our problem, we are given 12 = 8\theta. This means that:

\theta = \dfrac{12}{8} = \boxed{\frac{3}{2}}


The measure of the angle is 1.5.

The amount, A, in milligrams, of radioactive material remaining in a container can be modeled by the exponential function A(t) =
lisov135 [29]

Answer: 4 years


Step-by-step explanation:

A(0) has to be amount at start. Assume that's 5mg

Then A(t) = 5×(0.5)^(0.25t) = 5×2^(-t/4),

(also known as 5 exp(-λ t) with λ = ln(2)/4, incidentally).


We need to such that A(t) = 2.5mg, or 2^(-t/4) is 1/2, which happens when -t/4 is -1, or t is 4.

Answer:

1  :

Step  2  :

Equations which are never true :

2.1      Solve :    2   =  0

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Solving a Single Variable Equation :

2.2      Solve  :    2x+1 = 0

Subtract  1  from both sides of the equation :

                     2x = -1

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

                    x = -1/2 = -0.500

One solution was found :

                  x = -1/2 = -0.500

Which expression is equivalent to (f + g)(4)?

(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x) therefore (f + g)(4) = f(4) + g(4)

Answer:

○ \displaystyle \pi

Step-by-step explanation:

\displaystyle \boxed{y = 3sin\:(2x + \frac{\pi}{2})} \\ y = Asin(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \hookrightarrow \boxed{-\frac{\pi}{4}} \hookrightarrow \frac{-\frac{\pi}{2}}{2} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{2}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 3

<em>OR</em>

\displaystyle \boxed{y = 3cos\:2x} \\ y = Acos(Bx - C) + D \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow D \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow \frac{C}{B} \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow |A| \\ \\ Vertical\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Horisontal\:[Phase]\:Shift \hookrightarrow 0 \\ Wavelength\:[Period] \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{B}\pi \hookrightarrow \boxed{\pi} \hookrightarrow \frac{2}{2}\pi \\ Amplitude \hookrightarrow 3

You will need the above information to help you interpret the graph. First off, keep in mind that although this looks EXACTLY like the cosine graph, if you plan on writing your equation as a function of <em>sine</em>, then there WILL be a horisontal shift, meaning that a C-term will be involved. As you can see, the photograph on the right displays the trigonometric graph of \displaystyle y = 3sin\:2x,in which you need to replase "cosine" with "sine", then figure out the appropriate C-term that will make the graph horisontally shift and map onto the <em>sine</em> graph [photograph on the left], accourding to the horisontal shift formula above. Also keep in mind that the −C gives you the OPPOCITE TERMS OF WHAT THEY <em>REALLY</em> ARE, so you must be careful with your calculations. So, between the two photographs, we can tell that the <em>sine</em> graph [photograph on the right] is shifted \displaystyle \frac{\pi}{4}\:unitto the right, which means that in order to match the <em>cosine</em> graph [photograph on the left], we need to shift the graph BACKWARD \displaystyle \frac{\pi}{4}\:unit,which means the C-term will be negative, and by perfourming your calculations, you will arrive at \displaystyle \boxed{-\frac{\pi}{4}} = \frac{-\frac{\pi}{2}}{2}.So, the sine graph of the cosine graph, accourding to the horisontal shift, is \displaystyle y = 3sin\:(2x + \frac{\pi}{2}).Now, with all that being said, in this case, sinse you ONLY have a graph to wourk with, you MUST figure the period out by using wavelengths. So, looking at where the graph WILL hit \displaystyle [-1\frac{3}{4}\pi, 0],from there to \displaystyle [-\frac{3}{4}\pi, 0],they are obviously \displaystyle \pi\:unitsapart, telling you that the period of the graph is \displaystyle \pi.Now, the amplitude is obvious to figure out because it is the A-term, but of cource, if you want to be certain it is the amplitude, look at the graph to see how low and high each crest extends beyond the <em>midline</em>. The midline is the centre of your graph, also known as the vertical shift, which in this case the centre is at \displaystyle y = 0,in which each crest is extended <em>three units</em> beyond the midline, hence, your amplitude. So, no matter how far the graph shifts vertically, the midline will ALWAYS follow.

I am delighted to assist you at any time.
