Answer:

distance across the pond: 13 yd

distance walked by Garret: 12 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Data:

distance across the pond: x yd

distance walked by Sandy: 5 yd

distance walked by Garret: x-1 yd

A right triangle is formed where the distance across the pond is the hypotenuse. From Pythagorean theorem:

x² = 5² + (x-1)²

x² = 25 + x² - 2x + 1

0 = 26 - 2x

x = 13

From a practice assignment:<br>solve the following differential equation given initial conditions

hodyreva [135]

If $y' = e^y \sin(x)$ and $y(-\pi)=0$ , separate variables in the differential equation to get

$e^{-y} \, dy = \sin(x) \, dx$

Integrate both sides:

$\displaystyle \int e^{-y} \, dy = \int \sin(x) \, dx \implies -e^{-y} = -\cos(x) + C$

Use the initial condition to solve for $C$ :

$-e^{-0} = -\cos(-\pi) + C \implies -1 = 1 + C \implies C = -2$

Then the particular solution to the initial value problem is

$-e^{-y} = -\cos(x) - 2 \implies e^{-y} = \cos(x) + 2$
