A life boat leaves a ship and floats 20 miles west and 9 miles north. If the ship's location represents the pole, what are the p

olar coordinates of the life boat?
A. (21.93, 65.77°)
B. (21.93, 114.23°)
C. (5.39, 65.77°)

Edit: This is high school mathematics; not sure why it says middle school.

Answer:

The polar coordinate of the boat is (21.93, 155.77°)

Step-by-step explanation:

If a A life boat leaves a ship and floats 20 miles west and 9 miles north, the boat must have move 20miles in the x direction and 9miles in the x direction.

In order to get the polar coordinate of the life boat, we need to find the resultant and the direction the coast is moving.

Using the formula to find the resultant

R = √x²+y²

R = √(-20)²+9²

R = √400+81

R = √481

R = 21.93miles

The direction is gotten using the formula;

Theta = arctan y/x

theta = arctan (9/-20)

theta = arctan -0.45

theta = -24.23°

Note that the x is negative because the boat moves towards the west (negative x direction)

Note that tan is negative in the second quadrant. In the second quadrant, the angle will become 180-24.23 = 155.77°

The polar coordinate of the boat is (21.93, 155.77°)

zepelin [54]

Answer:

34191.7πin³/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of circular come = 1/3pi x r² x h

When we differentiate this formula we have

dv/dt = 1/3π[r²dh/dt + 2rhdr/dt]

We have the following information

r = 138

H = 143 inch

dr/dt = 1.4

dh/dt = -2.8

When we plug into the formula

1/3π[130² x -2.8 + 2x138x143x1.4]

= 34191.7πin³/sec

SEE IMAGE! Two lines below intersect to form four angles, as shown. The measure of angle 2 is 114°. What is the sum of the measu
o-na [289]
ANSWER:


Angles 2 and 4 are vertical angles, which means they have the same angle measure because they are opposite of each other. So angles 2 and 4 are both 114 so that makes 228. All of the angles have to make 360, so 360 - 228 = 132. Then, 132/2 because there are two angles. That makes 66. And angles 1 and 3 are also vertical angles so they are also the same

The answer is 132

Firdavs [7]

Given:

A video game customers to rent games for $4.75 each.

Customers can also buy a membership for $54 annually, and video games would only cost $2.50 each.

To find:

The number of video games a customer would have to rent in a year in order for the two options to be equal.

Solution:

Let x be the number of video games.

A video game customers to rent games for $4.75 each. So, the total cost is

C_1(x)=4.75x

Customers can also buy a membership for $54 annually, and video games would only cost $2.50 each. So, the total cost is

C_2(x)=54+2.50x

Now, C_1(x)=C_2(x), if the rent in a year for the two options to be equal.

4.75x=54+2.50x

4.75x-2.50x=54

2.25x=54

Divide both sides by 2.25.

x=\dfrac{54}{2.25}

x=24

Therefore, the rent in two options are equal for 24 video games.
