Answer:
Step-by-step explanation
First, let's remember the equation for point-slope form and how to find the 'm' value:
Now plug your m value and (x1, y1) into point-slope form:
Answer:
20
Step-by-step explanation:
12 divided by 3/5 is equal to 20
Ya, calculus and related rates, such fun!
everything is changing with respect to t
altitude rate will be dh/dt and that is 1cm/min
dh/dt=1cm/min
area will be da/dt which is increasing at 2cm²/min
da/dt=2cm²/min
base=db/dt
alright
area=1/2bh
take dervitivie of both sides
da/dt=1/2((db/dt)(h)+(dh/dt)(b))
solve for db/dt
distribute
da/dt=1/2(db/dt)(h)+1/2(dh/dt)(b)
move
da/dt-1/2(dh/dt)(b)=1/2(db/dt)(h)
times 2 both sides
2da/dt-(dh/dt)(b)=(db/dt)(h)
divide by h
(2da/dt-(dh/dt)(b))/h=db/dt
ok
we know
height=10
area=100
so
a=1/2bh
100=1/2b10
100=5b
20=b
so
h=10
b=20
da/dt=2cm²/min
dh/dt=1cm/min
therefor
(2(2cm²/min)-(1cm/min)(20cm))/10cm=db/dt
(4cm²/min-20cm²/min)/10cm=db/dt
(-16cm²/min)/10cm=db/dt
-1.6cm/min=db/dt
the base is decreasing at 1.6cm/min
Since ABC is equilateral, all 3 sides have equal length. side AC is 8 units since side BC is 8 units.
Line BD is placed in the middle, making D the midpoint of side AC.
knowing this information we can determine that the length of DC is 4 units (half of AC)
since triangle BDC is a right triangle, we can use the side lengths in the pythagorean theorem to find the length of BD
a²+b²=c² where a & b = legs of triangle , and c= hypotenuse (longest side)
we are given the hypotenuse and found one leg so we can plug our values into the equation to find the third
4² + b²= 8²
16 + b² = 64
b² = 48
b =
b= 4√3 or about 6.928 units
hope this helped
