Set up a proportion
EA / EB = ED/ EC
16 / (5x + 2 + 16) = 12 / (12 + 24)
16/(5x + 18) = 12 / 36 Cross multiply
16 * 36 = (4x + 18)*12 Remove the brackets
576 = 48x + 216 Subtract 216 from both sides.
360 = 48x Divide by 48
360/48 = x
7.5 = x

My Notes The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring is given by y(t) = 1 4 cos(5t) where y

ikadub [295]

Answer:

y(0) = 0.25 feet

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

The displacement from equilibrium of an oscillating weight suspended by a spring =

$y(t) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5t)$

where y is the displacement in feet and t is the time in seconds.

Here, cos is in radians.

1) t = 0

$y(0) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(0)) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(0) = \frac{1}{4}(1) = \frac{1}{4}$

y(0) = 0.25 feet

2) t = $\frac{1}{4}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{4}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{4})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(1.25) = \frac{1}{4}(0.31532236) =0.07883059$

$y(\frac{1}{4}) = 0.0789 \text{ feet}$

3) t = $\frac{1}{2}$

$y(\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}) = \displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \cos(5(\frac{1}{2})) = \frac{1}{4} \cos(2.5) = \frac{1}{4}(-0.80114362) = -0.200285905$

$y(\frac{1}{2}) =-0.2003 \text{ feet}$

The negative sign indicates the opposite direction of displacement.

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below? Check all that apply. 4x2 + 4x + 1 = 9

Vilka [71]

Answer:

4x^2 + 4x + 1=9

4x^2 + 4x - 8=0

Dividing both sides by 4

x^2 + x -2=0

It can be written as

x^2 + 2x - x - 2=0

x(x+2) -1(x+2)=0

taking (x+2) as common on LHS

Then, (x+2)(x-1)=0

Now first equate x+2=0 ie x=-2

then x-1=0 ie x=1

Therefore, x has two values(roots)

that is -2,1
