Answer:

The distance = 2205 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ The deep of the point = 1200 meters

∵ The point is 1850 meters west from the starting point

∵ The deep is ⊥ to the west

So to find the straight distance that the shark need to swim,

we will use Pythagoras theorem

∴ Distance = √(1200² + 1850²) = 2205 meters

The number a exceeds the number b by 50 percent. By what percent is the number b smaller than the number a?
Julli [10]
50%, because to exceed is to be larger than, so if A is larger than B by 50%, then that means that B is 50% smaller than A.

Juan wishes to build a garden at the bottom of his property. He wants to split it in two, like the diagram below, so he can plan
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

20 ft by 60 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

"What should the dimensions of the garden be to maximize this area?"

If y is the length of the garden, parallel to the stream, and x is the width of the garden, then the amount of fencing is:

120 = 3x + y

And the area is:

A = xy

Use substitution:

A = x (120 − 3x)

A = -3x² + 120x

This is a downward facing parabola.  The maximum is at the vertex, which we can find using x = -b/(2a).

x = -120 / (2 · -3)

x = 20

When x = 20, y = 60.  So the garden should be 20 ft by 60 ft.

What is the inverse of f(x)=(x+6)2 for x≥–6 where function g is the inverse of function f? g(x)=x√−6, x≥0 g(x)=x−6−−−−√, x≥6 g(x
avanturin [10]

Answer:

g(x)=\sqrt{x}-6, x>=0

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(x+6)^2

To find the inverse function , replace f(x) by y

y=(x+6)^2

Replace x with y and y with x

x=(y+6)^2

Solve the equation for y

take square root on both sides

+\sqrt{x} =y+6

Now subtract 6 from both sides

+\sqrt{x}-6=y

replace y with g(x)

g(x)=\sqrt{x}-6
