Answer:

\frac{dc}{dt}\approx13.8146\text{ km/min}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the plane travels at a <em>constant</em> speed of 14 km/min.

It passes over a radar station at a altitude of 11 km and climbs at an angle of 25°.

We want to find the rate at which the distance from the plane to the radar station is increasing 4 minutes later. In other words, if you will please refer to the figure, we want to find dc/dt.

First, let's find c, the distance. We can use the law of cosines:

c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos(C)

We know that the plane travels at a constant rate of 14 km/min. So, after 4 minutes, the plane would've traveled 14(4) or 56 km So, a is 56, b is a constant 11. C is 90+20 or 115°. Substitute:

c^2=(56)^2+(11)^2-2(56)(11)\cos(115)

Evaluate:

c^2=3257-1232\cos(115)

Take the square root of both sides:

c=\sqrt{3257-1232\cos(115)}

Now, let's return to our law of cosines. We have:

c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab\cos(C)

We want to find dc/dt. So, let's take the derivative of both sides with respect to t:

\frac{d}{dt}[c^2]=\frac{d}{dt}[a^2+b^2-2ab\cos(C)]

Since our b is constant at 11 km, we can substitute this in:

\frac{d}{dt}[c^2]=\frac{d}{dt}[a^2-(11)^2-2a(11)\cos(C)]

Evaluate:

\frac{d}{dt}[c^2]=\frac{d}{dt}[a^2-121-22a\cos(C)]

Implicitly differentiate:

2c\frac{dc}{dt}=2a\frac{da}{dt}-22\cos(115)\frac{da}{dt}

Divide both sides by 2c:

\frac{dc}{dt}=\frac{2a\frac{da}{dt}-22\cos(115)\frac{da}{dt}}{2c}

Solve for dc/dt. We already know that da/dt is 14 km/min. a is 56. We also know c. Substitute in these values:

\frac{dc}{dt}=\frac{2(56)(14)-22\cos(115)(14)}{2\sqrt{3257-1232\cos(115)}}

Simplify:

\frac{dc}{dt}=\frac{1568-308\cos(115)}{2\sqrt{3257-1232\cos(115)}}

Use a calculator. So:

\frac{dc}{dt}\approx13.8146\text{ km/min}

And we're done!

Solve by completing the square. Round your answers to the nearest tenth and then locate the greater solution. <img src="https://
Andrews [41]

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write our Givens

{x}^{2}  + 10x - 7 = 0

Move the constant term ,(the term with no variable) to the right side.

Here we have a negative 7, so we add 7 to both sides

{x}^{2}  + 10x = 7

Next, we take the linear coeffeicent and divide it by 2 then square it.

( \frac{10}{2} ) {}^{2}  = 25

Then we add that to both sides

{x}^{2}  + 10x + 25 = 7 + 25

{ {x}^{2} } + 10x + 25 = 32

Next, we factor the left,

(x + 5)(x + 5) = 32

we got 5 because 5 add to 10 and multiply to 25 as well.

so we get

(x + 5) {}^{2}  = 32

This is called a perfect square trinomial.

Next, we take the square root of both sides

x + 5 = ± \sqrt{32}

± menas that we have a positive and negative solution.

Subtract 5 form both side so we get

x =  - 5± \sqrt{32}

The greater solution is when sqr root of 32 is positive so the answer to that is

\sqrt{32}  - 5 = 0.7

A media company wants to track the results of its new marketing plan, so the video production manager recorded the number of vie
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

f(x)=5120(1.25)^{x}

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given question

As we know that

f(x) and x are related by following equation

f(x)=a( {b})^{x}

where

b is the common ratio

Now first we have to compute the value for b which are as follows

\frac{6400}{5120}= 1.25

\frac{8000}{6400}= 1.25

Like if we take the ratio by this method than it comes 1.25

Therefore the common ratio, b = 1.25

So,

a = 5,120

Hence, the equation which model the relationship between the number of weeks and the number of viewers is

f(x)=5120(1.25)^{x}
