(d) The particle moves in the positive direction when its velocity has a positive sign. You know the particle is at rest when $t=0$ and $t=3$ , and because the velocity function is continuous, you need only check the sign of $v(t)$ for values on the intervals (0, 3) and (3, 6).

We have, for instance $v(1)\approx-0.91$ and $v(4)\approx0.91>0$ , which means the particle is moving the positive direction for $3$ , or the interval (3, 6).

(e) The total distance traveled is obtained by integrating the absolute value of the velocity function over the given interval:

$\displaystyle\int_0^6|v(t)|\,\mathrm dt=\int_0^3-v(t)\,\mathrm dt+\int_3^6v(t)\,\mathrm dt$

which follows from the definition of absolute value. In particular, if $x$ is negative, then $|x|=-x$ .

The total distance traveled is then 4 ft.

(g) Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, so $a(t)$ is the derivative of $v(t)$ :

$a(t)=v'(t)=-\dfrac{\pi^2}9\cos\left(\dfrac{\pi t}3\right)$

Compute the acceleration at $t=4$ seconds:

$a(t)=\dfrac{\pi^2}{18}\dfrac{\rm ft}{\mathrm s^2}$

(In case you need to know, for part (i), the particle is speeding up when the acceleration is positive. So this is done the same way as part (d).)

My question : here is related to Algebra 1 HELP

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The sun is about 390 times farther than earth is from the moon

Step-by-step explanation:

It's kind of hard to understand the question but it's essentially asking how many times farther earth is from the sun than earth is from the Moon. Or basically measure the distance from the earth to the moon. Then show how much bigger the distance from the Earth to the Sun is by comparing it from the earth to the moon. To do this you divide the distance of moon by the distance of the sun to get how many times you could you could fit the distance between the Earth and The Moon from the Earth to the Sun.

14+3x≤23<br> please help me

nignag [31]

Answer:

x≤3

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step one- This equation has 23 greater than or equal to sign. Which means It can be at most 23</em>

<em>Step two- Find out what times 3x+14=23 In this case the answer is 3.3 Is the biggest number that can be multiplied by 3, +14 to get to 23.</em>

<em>Step three- Rewrite the Answer. Since we know that 3 is the highest numebr possible, we rewrite it to this equation</em>

<h3>x≤3</h3><h3>HOPE THIS HELPS :)</h3>
