The steering wheel on Becky’s car has a 16-inch diameter, and its center is at (0, 0). Point X at the top of the wheel has coord

inates (0, 8). To turn left off her street, Becky must rotate the steering wheel by 300°. Find the coordinates of X when the steering wheel is rotated. Round to the nearest tenth.

Rotating the steering wheel left 300 degrees is the same as turning it right 60 degrees.  Well, not if you're driving, but the same as far as where the points on the wheel end up.

In polar coordinates X is P(8, 90°), which is how I'll write magnitude 8, angle 90 degrees.  In rectangular coordinates that's (8 cos 90°, 8 sin 90°) = (0,8) as we're told.

After rotation by 300° the angle of X is 90° + 300° = 390° so our coordinates are

P(8, 390°) = (8 cos 390°, 8 sin 390°) = (8 cos 30°, 8 sin 30°)

= (8 (√3/2), 8 (1/2)) = (4√3, 4)

Answer:  (4√3, 4)

I'll leave the rounding to you; I hate ruining a nice exact answer with an approximation.

As we see we would have reached the same 30° point if we had rotated -60° instead of 300°.

Identify the type of function represented by... please help
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Exponential decay.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use a graphing utility to check this pretty quickly, but you can also look at the equation and get the answer. Since the function has a variable in the exponent, it definitely won't be a linear equation. Quadratic equations are ones of the form ax^2 + bx + c, and your function doesn't look like that, so already you've ruled out two answers.

From the start, since we have a variable in the exponent, we can recognize that it's exponential. Figuring out growth or decay is a little more complicated. Having a negative sign out front can flip the graph; having a negative sign in the exponent flips the graph, too. In your case, you have no negatives; just 2(1/2)^x. What you need to note here, and you could use a few test points to check, is that as x gets bigger, (1/2) will get smaller and smaller. Think about it. When x = 0, 2(1/2)^0 simplifies to just 2. When x = 1, 2(1/2)^1 simplifies to 1. Already, we can tell that this graph is declining, but if you want to make sure, try a really big value for x, like 100. 2(1/2)^100 is a value very very very veeery close to 0. Therefore, you can tell that as the exponent gets larger, the value of the function goes down and gets closer and closer to zero. This means that it can't be exponential growth. In the case of exponential growth, as the exponent gets bigger, your output should increase, too.

Gwar [14]

Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 + 1/4

To add these fractions, you need a lowest common denominator.  Both 4 and 8 "go into" 8, so the lowest common denominator is 8.

In order to change the denominator 4 to 8, you need to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2.  So, 1/4 becomes 2/8.

Now, the problem is 3/8 + 2/8.  

You can add the numerators, because the denominator is the same for each fraction.

3/8 + 2/8 = 5/8
