Erik's disabled sailboat is floating stationary 3 miles east and 2 miles north of Kingston. A ferry leaves Kingston heading towa

rd Edmonds at 9 mph. Edmonds is 6 miles due east of Kingston. After 20 minutes, the ferry turns, heading due south. Ballard is 8 miles south and 1 mile west of Edmonds. Impose coordinates with Ballard as the origin. (Let one unit equal one mile.) (a) Find the equations for the lines along which the ferry is moving. eastward ? southward x=−2 Correct: Your answer is correct. (b) The sailboat has a radar scope that will detect any object within 3 miles of the sailboat. Looking down from above, as in the picture, the radar region looks like a circular disc. The boundary is the "edge" or circle around this disc, the interior is the inside of the disc, and the exterior is everything outside of the disc (i.e., outside of the circle). Give a mathematical description of the boundary, interior, and exterior of the radar zone. (Express your answers as equations and/or inequalities using the variables x and y.) boundary 9=(x−(−2))2+(y−10)2 Correct: Your answer is correct. interior ? exterior ? (c) When does the ferry enter the radar zone? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) (d) Where does the ferry exit the radar zone? (Round your answers to one decimal place as needed.) (x, y) = −2,7 Correct: Your answer is correct. When does the ferry exit the radar zone? (Round your answer to one decimal place.) (e) How long does the ferry spend inside the radar zone? (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose that Ballard is an origin with coordinates (0;0)

Ballard is 8 miles south and 1 mile west of Edmonds ⇒ Edmonds is 1 mile east and 8 miles north of Ballard.

Thus, coordinates of Edmonds (0+1; 0+8) (1;8)

Edmonds is 6 miles due east of Kingston. So, is 6 miles due of Edmonds

Thus, Kingston coordinates (1-6;8) (-5:8)

Sailboat is 3 miles east and 2 miles north of kingston

So, coordinates of sailboat are (-5+3; 8+2) (-2;10)

a)

Ferry leaves Kingston towards Edmonds at mph and Edmonds is 6 miles due east of Kingston.

Initial ferry coordinates as calculated above are equal to Kingston coordinates (-5;8)

After 20 minutes the ferry turns to south.

This distance travelled (20min) is d=9mph*20/60h=3 miles

So, ferry travelled 3 miles toward east in 20 min

Then, coordinates became (-5+3;8+0) (-2;8)

Thus, we have a line connecting two points (-5;8) and (-2;8)

Line connecting them has an equation:

y-8 = (8-8)/(-2+5) * (x+5)

y-8=0

y=8 - This is the equation for the first 20 minutes of travel

Then, ferry turns due south (-2;8) and has a vertiacl line

The equation of verical line is x=a, so the equation will be x=2

b) The sailboat has a radar scope that will detect any object within 3 miles of the sailboat.

region looks like a circular disc with a center (-2;10)

(x+2)^2+(y-10)^2=3^2

(x+2)^2+(y-10)^2 <9 (interior of the circular disc)

(x+2)^2+(y-10)^2 >9 (exterior)

The equation of the line joining the Kingston and Edmonds is y=8

the point of intersection:

(x+2)^2+(8-10)^2=9

(x+2)^2=5

x is approximately 0.24; -4.24

(0.24;8) (-4.24;8) - intersection points

c) The ferry exits the radar during the trid due south long x=-2

The points of intersection of the circle and the line x=-2:

(-2+2)^2+(y-10)^2=9

0+(y-10)^2=0

y is 7.13

(-2;7)

d) Takes south turn at (-2;8), then ferry travels 0.8 miles up to point (-2;7) where it exists the radar zone

Speed is 9mph

The time taken to cover 1 mile = t=1/9hr=1/9 *60=6.667min

So, it exists after 6.67 minutes

e) Ferry enters at (-4.24;8) and takes turn due to south at (-2;8)

The distance travelled is = [-4.24+2]=2.24 miles

The time taken to cover these miles is = t=2.24/9 *60=14.93 min

After turning to south ferry remains in radar for 6.7 min

So, it remains in radar zone for 14.93+6.7=21.63min

To make 6 apples pie, you need 2 pounds of apples. How many pounds of apples do you need to make 10 apple pies?
Bezzdna [24]
For every 6 apple pie, you need 2 pounds of apples.
So, how many pounds of apples do you need for 10 apple pies?
Well, first to figure out this question we first need to make a conversion factor.
I see in the fraction 6/3 we can simplify that to 2/1. Now we got our conversion factor.
We need to invert the fraction in order for the pie unit to cancel out.
1/2 * 10 = 5

You will need 5 pounds of apples to make 10 apple pies.
