Nina can ride her bike 63,360 feet in 3,400 seconds, and Sophia can ride her bike 10 miles in 1 hour. What is Nina's rate in mil

es per hour if there are 5,280 feet in a mile? Which of these girls bikes faster?

We know that
3600 seconds = 1 hour
Then
3400 seconds = 3400/3600
= 17/18 hours
5280 feet = 1 mile
Then
63360 feet = 63360/5280 mile
= 12 mile
So
Distance covered by Nina in 17/18 hours = 12 mile
Then
Distance covered by Nina in 1 hour = 12/(17/18) miles
= 12.71 miles.
From the above deduction, we can conclude that the speed of Nina is 12.71 miles per hour.
Speed of Sophia is 10 miles per hour. So Nina is the girl that rides at a faster speed.

siniylev [52]

Solution :

a). The level curves of the function :

$C(x,y) = e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}$

are actually the curves

$e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}=k$

where k is a positive constant.

The equation is equivalent to

$x^2+2y^2=K$

$\Rightarrow \frac{x^2}{(\sqrt K)^2}+\frac{y^2}{(\sqrt {K/2})^2}=1, \text{ where}\ K = -10^4 \ln k$

which is a family of ellipses.

We sketch the level curves for K =1,2,3 and 4.

If the shark always swim in the direction of maximum increase of blood concentration, its direction at any point would coincide with the gradient vector.

Then we know the shark's path is perpendicular to the level curves it intersects.

b). We have :

$\triangledown C= \frac{\partial C}{\partial x}i+\frac{\partial C}{\partial y}j$

$\Rightarrow \triangledown C =-\frac{2}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}(xi+2yj),$ and

$\triangledown C$ points in the direction of most rapid increase in concentration, which means $\triangledown C$ is tangent to the most rapid increase curve.

$r(t)=x(t)i+y(t)j$ is a parametrization of the most $\text{rapid increase curve}$ , then

$\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{dx}{dt}i+\frac{dy}{dt}j$ is a tangent to the curve.

So then we have that $\frac{dr}{dt}=\lambda \triangledown C$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dx}{dt}=-\frac{2\lambda x}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}, \frac{dy}{dt}=-\frac{4\lambda y}{10^4}e^{-(x^2+2y^2)/10^4}$

∴ $\frac{dy}{dx}=\frac{dy/dt}{dx/dt}=\frac{2y}{x}$

Using separation of variables,

$\frac{dy}{y}=2\frac{dx}{x}$

$\int\frac{dy}{y}=2\int \frac{dx}{x}$

$\ln y=2 \ln x$

⇒ y = kx^2 for some constant k

but we know that $y(x_0)=y_0$

$\Rightarrow kx_0^2=y_0$

$\Rightarrow k =\frac{y_0}{x_0^2}$

∴ The path of the shark will follow is along the parabola

$y=\frac{y_0}{x_0^2}x^2$

$y=y_0\left(\frac{x}{x_0}\right)^2$

What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the point (−3, 1)?

UkoKoshka [18]

The equation of the line parallel to given line and passing through (-3, 1) will be y – 1 = (3/2)(x + 3). Then the correct option is D.

<h3>What is the equation of line?</h3>

The equation of line is given as

y = mx + c

Where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

The slope of the parallel lines are equal.

m = (2 + 4) / (2 + 2)

m = 6/4

m = 3/2

Then the equation of the line will be

y = (3/2)x + c

The line is passing through (-3, 1). Then the value of c will be

1 = (3/2)(-3) + c

c = 9/2 + 1

Then the equation will be

y = (3/2)x + 9/2 + 1

y – 1 = (3/2)(x + 3)

Then the correct option is D.

More about the equation of line link is given below.
