<span>Rational exponent are exponents written in the form of a fraction.
A rational power can be rewritten as a radical in the following way: the bottom of the rational exponent is the root, while the top of the rational exponent is the new exponent on the radical.
Example: X^(1/2)= </span>√X
Answer:
2.29 ft of side length and 1.14 height
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Volume V = x2h, where x is side of square base and h is hite.
Then surface area S = x2 + 4xh because box is open.
b) From V = x2h = 6 we have h = 6/x2.
Substitude in formula for surface area: S = x2 + 4x·6/x2, S = x2 + 24/x.
We get S as function of one variable x. To get minimum we have to find derivative S' = 2x - 24/x2 = 0, from here 2x3 - 24 = 0, x3 = 12, x = (12)1/3 ≅ 2.29 ft.
Then h = 6/(12)2/3 = (12)1/3/2 ≅ 1.14 ft.
To prove that we have minimum let get second derivative: S'' = 2 + 48/x3, S''(121/3) = 2 + 48/12 = 6 > 0.
And because by second derivative test we have minimum: Smin = (12)2/3 + 4(12)1/3(12)1/3/2 = 3(12)2/3 ≅ 15.72 ft2
Answer:
232°
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways to find the desired direction. Perhaps the most straightforward is to add up the coordinates of the travel vectors.
30∠270° +50∠210° = 30(cos(270°), sin(270°)) +50(cos(210°), sin(210°))
= (0, -30) +(-43.301, -25) = (-43.301, -55)
Then the angle from port is ...
arctan(-55/-43.301) ≈ 231.79° . . . . . . . 3rd quadrant angle
The bearing of the ship from port is about 232°.

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>
The term "knot" is conventionally used to indicate a measure of speed (nautical mile per hour), not distance. It is derived from the use of a knotted rope to estimate speed. Knots on the rope were typically 47 ft 3 inches apart. As a measure of distance 30 knots is about 1417.5 feet.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Remark
Read the following carefully.
There is a beautiful theorem that has to do with the endpoints of two angles sharing the same endpoints.
To be a little clearer, I hope, that makes < BAC = <BDC because both angles have B and C as their endpoints inside the circle. Make sure you understand that statement before moving on.
For this problem <BDC = <CAB = 33 degrees.
That means that ADC = 37 + 33 = 70
Solution
<ADC and CBA are opposite angles.
That means that they add to 180
From the above statement in the Remark section <ADC = 37 + 33 = 70 degrees <ABD + <DBC = <ABC = m + 71
<ABC + ADC = 180
m + 71 + 70 = 180 Combine
m + 141 = 180 Subtract 141 from both sides.
m+141-141= 180 - 141 Combine
m = 39
Answer: m = 39
