A ladder 10 feet long rests against a vertical wall. Let θ be the angle between the top of the ladder and the wall, and let x be

the distance from the bottom of the ladder to the wall. If the bottom of the ladder slides away from the wall, how fast does x change with respect to θ when θ=π/3?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of ladder, y = 10 ft

θ = π/3 rad

Using cosine rule,

Sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse

Sin θ = x/y

Sin θ = x/10

Differentiating both sides with respect to dθ,

10 × cos θ × dθ = dx

10 cos θ = dx/dθ

dx/dθ = 10 × cos π/3

= 5 ft/radians.

Jen and Ron each took five tests. Their test scores are shown below.
Molodets [167]

The  statement that correctly compares the students’ test scores is that the median of Jen's score is greater than the median of Ron's score.

<h3>How to find mean and median?</h3>

Jen and Ron each took five tests. There test score are as follow:

  • Jen: {45, 91, 84, 66, 74}
  • Ron: {70, 95, 99, 69, 72}

Let's find the mean and median of the test score to compare them correctly

Jen: {45, 66, 74, 84, 91}

mean of Jen score = 45 + 66 + 74 + 84 + 91 / 5

mean of Jen score= 360 / 5

mean of  Jen score = 72

Median of  Jen score = 74

Ron: {69, 70, 72, 95, 99}

mean of Ron score = 69 + 70 + 72 + 95 + 99 / 5

mean of Ron score = 405 / 5

mean of Ron score = 81

median of Ron score = 72

Therefore, the median of Jen's score is greater than the median of Ron's score.

What is the midpoint to the segment below?
shtirl [24]

Step-by-step Answer:

The coordinates of the mid-point of a segment whose end-points are known is the average of the coordinates of the end-points.

Here, the end-points are: (-11,0), (9,-1)

So the x-coordinate of the mid-point is (-11+9)/2 = (-2/2) = -1, and

the y-coordinate of the mid-point is (0-1)/2 = -0.5

So the mid-point is (-1,-0.5)

Check the numbers by plotting the point on the graph!
