If we let the coordinates of each ship be (x, y) with the positive directions of these coordinates corresponding to East and North, then the positions of the ships t hours after noon are

Ship A
  (-180+35t, 0)

Ship B
  (0, 30t)

The distance between them is the "Pythagorean sum" of the difference in their coordinates:
  d = √((-180 +35t)² +(-30t)²)
    = √(32400 -12600t +2125t²)
The rate of change of this distance is
  dd/dt = (2125t -6300)/√(32400 -12600t +2125t²)

At 4 pm, the value of this rate of change is
  (2125*4 -6300)/√(32400 -12600*4 +2125*4²)
  = 2200/√16000
  ≈ 17.39 km/h

The distance between the ships is increasing at about 17.39 km/h at 4 pm.

A rectangle is 64 cm long 40 cm wide find is area and perimeter​
kow [346]

Answer:

Assuming the length to be x and the width to be y.

Since the area is 64cm, hence

x*y = 64 (equation 1)

Since the perimeter is 40cm, hence

x + x + y + y = 40

2x + 2y = 40

2(x + y) = 2(20)

x + y = 20 (equation 2)

Hence by using simultaneous equation,

x = 20 - y (equation 3)

Substituting equation 3 into equation 1, we get

(20-y)*y=64

20y-y^2=64

Tidying up the equation,

y^2 - 20y + 64 = 0

By using factorisation,

(y-16)(y-4)=0

y=16 or y=4

By substituting y=16 into equation 1,

x*16=64

x = 4

By substituting y = 4 into equation 1,

x*4=64

x=16

Therefore,

The length is 4 cm while the width is 16 cm.

OR

The length is 16 cm while the width is 4cm.

Hope this helps!!

Find the domain and range of the exponential function h(x) = –343^x. Explain your findings. As x decreases, does h increase or d
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

As x decreases, h increases (but never touches)

As x increases, h decreases (but never touches)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you graphed the exponential, you would be able to see that it is stuck in the 3rd quadrant.

Domain: (negative infinity, 1)

Range: (negative infinity, 0)

Solve for x in the triangle. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

if angles shown are right angle then from corner to midpoint line if this is symettrical angles are 45 and 45. if area is asked of you need to

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of any right triangle, you simply multiply the lengths of the two sides that are perpendicular to each other, and then take half of that. if you could flip one of them and move it on top of the other, they would match exactly. The rectangle has an area of 2 × 4 = 8 square units.

(PLEASE HELP) The table below - does it represent an exponential function?
Aliun [14]
Short answer: I don't know, but that doesn't mean I can't give you something that you can decide for yourself.
y = 4*2^(2n - 2) is the pattern.
Go for broke. Try n = 4. You should get 256. Let's try it.
y = 4 * 2^(2*4 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^(8 - 2)
y = 4 * 2^6
y = 4 * 64
y = 256 yup it works.

The other end is just as important. Suppose n = 1
Then y = 4 * 2^(2*1 - 2) = 4 * 2^0 = 4*1 = 4 Both work.

If this formula is correct, we can abbreviate it to make your task easier.
y = 4 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^2 * 2^(2n - 2)
y = 2^(2n - 2 + 2)
y = 2^(2n) Now try the two end points again.

n = 4
y = 2^(2*4)
y  =  2^8
y = 256

n = 1
y = 2^(2*1)
y = 2^2
y = 4 which again checks.

so y = 2^(2n) I think is an exponential function.
Sorry my explanation is so long.
