The solution to the problem is as follows:
let y = asinx + bcosx 
<span>
dy/dx = acosx - bsinx </span>
<span>
= 0 for max/min </span>
<span>
bsinx = acosx </span>
<span>
sinx/cosx = a/b </span>
<span>
tanx = a/b </span>
<span>
then the hypotenuse of the corresponding right-angled triangle is √(a^2 + b^2) </span>

<span>the max/min of y occurs when tanx = a/b </span>
<span>
then sinx = a/√(a^2 + b^2) and cosx = b/√(a^2 + b^2) </span>
<span>
y = a( a/√(a^2 + b^2)) + b( b/√(a^2 + b^2)) </span>
<span>
= (a^2 + b^2)/√(a^2 + b^2) </span>
<span>
= √(a^2 + b^2)</span>

Given points A(-1, -2) and B(2, 4) where AP: BP=1:2, find the locus of point P.​
koban [17]

Answer:

x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y  =  0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A = (-1,-2)

B = (2,4)

AP:BP = 1 : 2

Required

The locus of P

AP:BP = 1 : 2

Express as fraction

\frac{AP}{BP} = \frac{1}{2}

Cross multiply

2AP = BP

Calculate AP and BP using the following distance formula:

d = \sqrt{(x - x_1)^2 + (y - y_1)^2}

So, we have:

2 * \sqrt{(x - -1)^2 + (y - -2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}

2 * \sqrt{(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2} = \sqrt{(x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2}

Take square of both sides

4 * [(x +1)^2 + (y +2)^2] = (x - 2)^2 + (y - 4)^2

Evaluate all squares

4 * [x^2 + 2x + 1 + y^2 +4y + 4] = x^2 - 4x + 4 + y^2 - 8y + 16

Collect and evaluate like terms

4 * [x^2 + 2x + y^2 +4y + 5] = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20

Open brackets

4x^2 + 8x + 4y^2 +16y + 20 = x^2 - 4x + y^2 - 8y + 20

Collect like terms

4x^2 - x^2 + 8x + 4x + 4y^2 -y^2 +16y + 8y  + 20 - 20 =  0

3x^2 + 12x + 3y^2 +24y  =  0

Divide through by 3

x^2 + 4x + y^2 +8y  =  0

Which of the following is polynomial?
lawyer [7]

Answer:

x^2-1 has two terms without any negative exponent. so it is a polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial is a expression with more than one terms.

The expression with negative exponent is not a polynomial.

Expression in the denominator is also not a polynomial

x^2-1 has two terms without any negative exponent. so it is a polynomial.

option B,C and D has negative exponents, so it is not a polynomial.

A particle moves along a circular path with radius 3 centimeters. The particle has an angular velocity of 3π/4 radians per secon
Nina [5.8K]

After 5 s, the particle traverses a path subtended by an angle of

(3π/4 rad/s) (5 s) = 15π/4 rad

Now, 15π/4 rad = 15/8 * 2π rad, so the arc has a length equal to 15/8 of the circumference of the path:

15/8 * 2π * (3 cm) = 45π/4 cm ≈ 35.3 cm
