Two ships have a harbor entrance at the same time. The first ship is traveling at a constant 16 mph, while the second is traveli

ng at a constant 20 mph. If the angle between the course is 169°, how far apart are they after 2 hours? (Round answer to nearest whole number.)

So hmm check the picture below

both ships leave at the same time, one is going 16mph, the other 20mph, 2hrs later on the road

at 16mph well, 2hrs is just 16+16, or 32 miles away
20mph for 2hrs, is 20+20, or 40 miles away

using the law of cosines  \bf x = \sqrt{{{ 32}}^2+{{ 40}}^2-2(32)(40)cos(169^o)}

again, recall, the angle is in degrees, so, when taking the cosine, make sure your calculator is in Degree mode

The projected rate of increase in enrollment at a new branch of the UT-system is estimated by E ′ (t) = 12000(t + 9)−3/2 where E
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The projected enrollment is \lim_{t \to \infty} E(t)=10,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided projected rate.

E'(t) = 12000(t + 9)^{\frac{-3}{2}}

Integrate the above function.

E(t) =\int 12000(t + 9)^{\frac{-3}{2}}dt

E(t) =-\frac{24000}{\left(t+9\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}+c

The initial enrollment is 2000, that means at t=0 the value of E(t)=2000.

2000=-\frac{24000}{\left(0+9\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}+c

2000=-\frac{24000}{3}+c

2000=-8000+c

c=10,000

Therefore, E(t) =-\frac{24000}{\left(t+9\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}+10,000

Now we need to find \lim_{t \to \infty} E(t)

\lim_{t \to \infty} E(t)=-\frac{24000}{\left(t+9\right)^{\frac{1}{2}}}+10,000

\lim_{t \to \infty} E(t)=10,000

Hence, the projected enrollment is \lim_{t \to \infty} E(t)=10,000

The sides OP and RO of triangle POR are produced to points S and T respectively. If ∠SPR = 145° and ∠POT = 115° , find ∠PRO
Margarita [4]

Answer:

\angle PRQ = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\angle SPR = 145^o

\angle POT = 115^o

See attachment

Required

Find \angle PRO

First, calculate \angle RPO

\angle RPO + \angle SPR = 180 --- angle on a straight line

So, we have:

\angle RPO + 145 = 180

Collect like terms

\angle RPO = 180 - 145

\angle RPO = 35

Next, calculate PQR

\angle POR + \angle POT = 180

So, we have:

\angle POR + 115 = 180

Collect like terms

\angle POR = 180-115

\angle POR = 65

So, PRO is calculated as:

\angle PRO + \angle POR + \angle RPO = 180 --- angles in a triangle

So, we have:

\angle PRO + 65 + 35= 180

\angle PRO + 100= 180

Collect like terms

\angle PRO = 180-100

\angle PRO = 80
