A power line is to be constructed from a power station at point A to an island at point C, which is 1 mi directly out in the wat

er from a point B on the shore. Point B is 4 mi down shore from the power station at A. It costs $5000 per mile to lay the power line under water and $3000 per mile to lay the line underground. At what point S down shores from A between the cities?

Answer:

<u>Given :</u>

length offshore = CS=√(1+X^2)

Cable charged = 5000√(1+X^2)

onshore length = 4-X

laying cost = 3000(4-X)

total cost:

C=5000√(1+X^2) +3000(4-X)

DC/DX

= [5000*(0.5)*2X/{√(1+X^2)}]-3000=0... for optimum

5000X=3000√(1+X^2)

25X^2=3+3X^2

22X^2=3

X=√(3/22)

= 0.3693 miles

So, it would be laid offshore to S in a manner that

BS=X=0.3693 miles

Onshore=4-0.3693

=3.6307 miles

If the endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (−8, −6) and (−4, −14), what is the standard form equation of the circle?
kondaur [170]

Equation of the circle is (x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20.

Solution:

The endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (–8, –6) and (–4, –14).

Center of the circle = Mid point of the diameter

Mid point formula:

$P(x, y)=\left(\frac{x_{1}+x_{2}}{2}, \frac{y_{1}+y_{2}}{2}\right)

Here, x_1=-8, y_1=-6, x_2=-4, y_2=-14

$P(x, y) =\left(\frac{-8-4}{2}, \frac{-6-14}{2}\right)

$P(x, y) =\left(\frac{-12}{2}, \frac{-20}{2}\right)

$P(x, y) =(-6, -10)

Center of the circle = (–6, –10)

Radius is the distance between center and any endpoint of the diameter.

To calculate the radius using distance formula.

r=\sqrt{\left(x_{2}-x_{1}\right)^{2}+\left(y_{2}-y_{1}\right)^{2}}

Here, x_1=-6, y_1=-10, x_2=-8, y_2=-6

r=\sqrt{\left(-8-(-6)\right)^{2}+\left(-6-(-10)}\right)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{(-8+6)^{2}+(-6+10)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{(-2)^{2}+(4)^{2}}

r=\sqrt{20} units

The standard form of the equation of a circle is

(x-a)^{2}+(y-b)^{2}=r^{2}, where (a, b) are center and r is the radius.

Here, center = (–6, –10) and r=\sqrt{20}

(x-(-6))^{2}+(y-(-10))^{2}={(\sqrt{20})} ^{2}

(x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20

Equation of the circle is (x+6)^{2}+(y+10)^{2}=20.

Answer:

\displaystyle 4536,4597918...\:cm.^2 = A

Step-by-step explanation:

Split the diametre in half before proceeding:

\displaystyle \pi{r}^2 = A \\ \\ 38^2\pi = A \hookrightarrow 1444\pi = A \\ \\ \boxed{4536,4597918... = A}

Answer: 32.14   after round off it will be 32

Step-by-step explanation:

This is how to round 32.14 to the nearest whole number. In other words, this is how to round 32.14 to the nearest integer.

32.14 has two parts. The integer part to the left of the decimal point and the fractional part to the right of the decimal point:

Integer Part: 32

Fractional Part: 14

 

Our goal is to round it so we only have an integer part using the following rules:

If the first digit in the fractional part of 32.14 is less than 5 then we simply remove the fractional part to get the answer.

If the first digit in the fractional part of 32.14 is 5 or above, then we add 1 to the integer part and remove the fractional part to get the answer.

The first digit in the fractional part is 1 and 1 is less than 5. Therefore, we simply remove the fractional part to get 32.14 rounded to the nearest whole number as:

32
