A cyclist bikes at a constant speed for 21

What's the answer to this

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

AC ≈ 17.3 , BC ≈ 5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

using the tangent ratio in right triangle ACD

tan51° = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent}$ = $\frac{AC}{AD}$ = $\frac{AC}{14}$ ( multiply both sides by 14 )

14 × tan51° = AC , then

AC ≈ 17.3 ( to the nearest tenth )

using the cosine ratio in right triangle ABC

cos72° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{BC}{AC}$ = $\frac{BC}{17.3}$ ( multiply both sides by 17.3 )

17.3 × cos72° = BC , then

BC ≈ 5.3 ( to the nearest tenth )

How do i draw a decimal for example 0.26?

elixir [45]

First, you need convert the decimals into fraction

0.26 = 26/100 = 13/50

The next step would be drawing 50 small boxes on a piece of paper. Make it colorless.

The final stap would be giving 13 out of those 50 boxes with different color (such as black), and you're done

Can someone please help me with this

Answer:

Equation of 2 tangent lines at the given curve going through point P is:

y = -7x + 1

y = x + 1

28.

Part 1: 400 feet

Part 2: Velocity is +96 feet/second (or 96 feet/second UPWARD) & Speed is 96 feet per second

Part 3: acceleration at any time t is -32 feet/second squared

Part 4: t = 10 seconds

29.

Part 1: Average Rate of Change = -15

Part 2: The instantaneous rate of change at x = 2 is -8 & at x = 3 is -23

Step-by-step explanation:

27.

First of all, the equation of tangent line is given by:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

Where m is the slope, or the derivative of the function

Now,

If we take a point x, the corresponding y point would be $x^2-3x+5$ , so the point would be $(x,x^2-3x+5)$

Also, the derivative is:

$f(x)=x^2-3x+5\\f'(x)=2x-3$

Hence, we can equate the DERIVATIVE (slope) and the slope expression through the point given (0,1) and the point we found $(x,x^2-3x+5)$

The slope is $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

So we have:

$\frac{x^2-3x+5-1}{x-0}\\=\frac{x^2-3x+4}{x}$

Now, we equate:

$2x-3=\frac{x^2-3x+4}{x}$

We need to solve this for x. Shown below:

$2x-3=\frac{x^2-3x+4}{x}\\x(2x-3)=x^2-3x+4\\2x^2-3x=x^2-3x+4\\x^2=4\\x=-2,2$

So, this is the x values of the point of tangency. We evaluate the derivative at these 2 points, respectively.

$f'(x)=2x-3\\f'(-2)=2(-2)-3=-7\\f'(2)=2(2)-3=1$

Now, we find 2 equations of tangent lines through the point (0,1) and with respective slopes of -7 and 1. Shown below:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-1=-7(x-0)\\y-1=-7x\\y=-7x+1$

and

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-1=1(x-0)\\y-1=x\\y=x+1$

So equation of 2 tangent lines at the given curve going through point P is:

y = -7x + 1

y = x + 1

28.

Part 1:

The highest point is basically the maximum value of the position function. To get maximum, we differentiate and set it equal to 0. Let's do this:

$s(t)=160t-16t^2\\s'(t)=160-32t\\s'(t)=0\\160-32t=0\\32t=160\\t=\frac{160}{32}\\t=5$

So, at t = 5, it reaches max height. We plug in t = 5 into position equation to find max height:

$s(t)=160t-16t^2\\s(5)=160(5)-16(5^2)\\=400$

max height = 400 feet

Part 2:

Velocity is speed, but with direction.

We also know the position function differentiated, is the velocity function.

Let's first find time(s) when position is at 256 feet. So we set position function to 256 and find t:

$s(t)=160t-16t^2\\256=160t-16t^2\\16t^2-160t+256=0\\t^2-10t+16=0\\(t-2)(t-8)=0\\t=2,8$

At t = 2, the velocity is:

$s'(t)=v(t)=160-32t\\v(2)=160-32(2)\\v(2)=96$

It is going UPWARD at this point, so the velocity is +96 feet/second or 96 feet/second going UPWARD

The corresponding speed (without +, -, direction) is simply 96 feet/second

Part 3:

We know the acceleration is the differentiation of the velocity function. let's find it:

$v(t)=160-32t\\v'(t)=a(t)=-32$

hence, the acceleration at any time t is -32 feet/second squared

Part 4:

The rock hits the ground when the position is 0 (at ground). So we equate the position function, s(t), to 0 and find time when it hits the ground. Shown below:

$s(t)=160t-16t^2\\0=160t-16t^2\\16t^2-160t=0\\16t(t-10)=0\\t=0,10$
