The estimated lengths are 12in. and 5 in. This would be an estimated difference of 7in.


The estimated difference is going to be higher than the actual difference because in rounding 11.7 to 12, you are losing .30in, but in rounding down 5.25 to 5, you are actually gaining .75in.


The ACTUAL difference is 6.45in

If c is the curve given by \mathbf{r} \left( t \right = \left( 1 5 \sin t \right \mathbf{i} \left( 1 3 \sin^{2} t \right \mathbf
jonny [76]
With the curve C parameterized by

C:\mathbf r(t)=\underbrace{15\sin t}_{x(t)}\,\mathbf i+\underbrace{13\sin^2t}_{y(t)}\,\mathbf j+\underbrace{12\sin^3t}_{z(t)}\,\mathbf k

with 0\le t\le\dfrac\pi2, and given the vector field

\mathbf f(x,y,z)=x\,\mathbf i+y\,\mathbf j+z\,\mathbf k

the work done by \mathbf f on a particle moving on along C is given by the line integral

\displaystyle\int_C\mathbf f\cdot\mathrm d\mathbf r=\int\limits_{t=0}^{t=\pi/2}\mathbf f(x(t),y(t),z(t))\cdot\frac{\mathrm d\mathbf r(t)}{\mathrm dt}\,\mathrm dt

where

\mathrm d\mathbf r=(15\cos t\,\mathbf i+26\sin t\cos t\,\mathbf j+36\sin^2t\cos t\,\mathbf k)\,\mathrm dt

The integral is then

\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}(15\sin t\,\mathbf i+13\sin^2t\,\mathbf j+12\sin^3t\,\mathbf k)\cdot(15\cos t\,\mathbf i+13\sin2t\,\mathbf j+18\sin t\sin2t\,\mathbf k)\,\mathrm dt
=\displaystyle\int_0^{\pi/2}(432\sin^5t\cos t+338\sin^3t\cos t+225\sin t\cos t

At 8:00 a.m., there were t inches of snow on the ground. At 5:00 p.m., there were 3t inches of snow on the ground. How many more
Anastaziya [24]

we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.

<h3>How many more inches of snow were on the ground at 5:00 p.m. than at 8:00 a.m.?</h3>

We know that at 8:00 a.m. there were t inches of snow in the ground.

At 5:00 p.m. there were 3t inches of snow in the ground.

Then the difference between the heights of the snow is:

3t- t = 2t

And we know that at 5:00 p.m. there were 12 inches of snow then we can solve the linear equation for t:

3t = 12in

t = (12in)/3 = 4 in

Replacing that in the difference of heights:

2t = 2*4in = 8in

From this, we conclude that at 5:00 p.m. there are 8 more inches of snow than at 8:00 a.m.

A train leaves Westchester at 6:30. What time should it arrive at Middlewich
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

a). 6:51

b). 6:30 am

c). 34 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Train leaves Westchester at 6:30.

   From the arrival - departure table in column (2),

   Arrival time of the train at middlewich = 6:51

b). Kate has to reach Southam before 9:00 am

   Therefore, time of the latest train that she can catch to get to work on time is 6:30 am

    By this train she can reach at 07:19 at Southam.

c). Duration of journey from Westchester to Eastwick = 06:34 - 06:00

                                                                                        = 00:34

                                                                                        ≈ 34 minutes

$500 are deposited into an account semiannuallysemiannually  for six years at an interest rate of 7.2​% compounded semiannually.
kobusy [5.1K]
Each year 107.2%increase of budget
first year 500 * 1.072 = 536
second year 536 * 1.072 = 574.592
third year 574.592 * 1.072 = 615.962624
..
..
sixth year 707.854392 *  1.072 = 758.819908

or you can just (1.072)^6 * 500 = 1.517639816659862 * 500 = 758.8199083299308
