Answer: 145

3.7 x 60 = 222 (how far north she drove)

1.4 x 55 = 77 (how far south she drove)

222 - 77 = 145 (how far from home)

Gravel is being dumped from a conveyor belt at a rate of 15 ft3/min, and its coarseness is such that it forms a pile in the shap

gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

0.13 ft/min

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

$\frac{dV}{dt}=15ft^3/min$

We have to find the increasing rate of change of height of pile when the pile is 12 ft high.

Let d be the diameter of pile

Height of pile=h

d=h

Radius of pile,r= $\frac{d}{2}=\frac{h}{2}$

Volume of pile= $\frac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h=\frac{1}{12}\pi h^3$

$\frac{dV}{dt}=\frac{1}{4}\pi h^2\frac{dh}{dt}$

h=12 ft

Substitute the values

$15=\frac{1}{4}\pi(12)^2\frac{dh}{dt}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{15\times 4}{\pi(12)^2}$

$\frac{dh}{dt}=0.13ft/min$

A survey of physicians in 1979 found that some doctors give a placebo to patients who complain of pain for which the physician c

lisov135 [29]

Below are the few reasons:

- There may have been a physical basis and yet the placebo can seem like it worked due to the patients mindset that they will get better.
<span>- Also, the doctors must not tell the patient that they will be taking a placebo. They must assure the patient that the "pill" will cure their problems.</span>

Secants L J and L M intersect and form an angle at point L. Solve for x.

german

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume your diagram is like the one below.

The intersecting secant angles theorem states, "When two secants intersect outside a circle, the measure of the angle formed is one-half the difference between the far and the near arcs."

For your diagram, that means

$\begin{array}{rcl}m\angle L &=&\dfrac{1}{2} \left(m \widehat {JM} - m\widehat {PQ}\right)\\\\(3x + 13)^{\circ}& = &\dfrac{1}{2} \left[(8x + 48)^{\circ} - (5x - 20)^{\circ}\right]\\\\3x + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(8x + 48 - 5x + 20)\\\\3x + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(3x + 68)\\\\6x + 26 & = & 3x + 68\\6x & = & 3x + 42\\3x & = & 42\\x & = & \mathbf{14}\\\end{array}$

Check:

$\begin{array}{rcl}(3\times14 + 13) & = &\dfrac{1}{2} \left[(8\times14 + 48)^{\circ} - (5\times14 - 20)^{\circ}\right]\\\\42 + 13& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(112 + 48 - 70 + 20)\\\\55& = &\dfrac{1}{2}(110)\\\\55 & = & 55\\\end{array}$

It checks.
