Answer:

DL/dt = 529 miles/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The radio station (point A) the point just up the radio station ( point B), and the variable position of the plane ( at specif t  point C) shape a right triangle wich hypothenuse L is:

L²  =  d² + x²

d is the constant distance between the plane and the ground

Then differentiation with respect to time on both sides of the equation

2*L*dL/dt  = 2*d* Dd/dt  + 2*x*dx/dt

But   Dd/dt  =  0

L*dL/dt  =  x*dx/dt

x =  5 miles       dx/dt  =  570 m/h        L  = √ d² + x²    L  √ (5)² + (2)²

L = √29      L  = 5.39 m

5.39 *DL/dt  =  5*570 m/h

DL/dt  =   5*570/5.39   miles/h

DL/dt  =  528.76  miles/h

DL/dt = 529 miles/h

What are the verter and x-intercepts of the graph of the function given below?<br> y=x2-2x-35
horsena [70]

For x intercepts, plug in 0 for y.

               0 = (x^2) - 2x - 35

*factoring* = (x-7)(x+5)

x intercepts = 7,-5

As for the vertex, you can use the equation -b/2a for the x-coordinate of the vertex

so,

x = -b/2a = -(-2)/2 = 1

then just find the y value by plugging it back in to the equation.

y = ((1)^2) - 2(1) - 35

= -36

so, vertex is at (1,-36)

I need to know the answer
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

-1 is the same as minus-ing it by 1.

10 + x - 1 = 26.

10 + 16 - 1 = 25, so it must not be x = 16.

x = 17. lets try it.

10 + 17 - 1 = 26!!

Joan needs to estimate the size of her bedroom so that she can buy enough paint to cover the walls. Two of the walls measure 2.8
labwork [276]

The total area of the room is 37.6376 and the no. of cans required to paint the wall is 3 cans.

The measurement of two of the walls is 2.86 metres and 3.16 metre

Area of the two walls = 2(length x breadth)

Area = 2(2.86 x 3.16) = 18.0752 m²

The measurement of the other two walls is 2.86 metres and 3.42 metres

Area of the two walls = 2(length × breadth)

Area = 2(2.86 × 3.42) = 19.5624 m²

Total area = 18.0752 + 19.5624 = 37.6376 m²

If one can of paint can cover 15 m², the no. of cans required to paint the bedroom will be

No. of cans = Total area/Area covered by one can of paint

No. of cans = 37.6376/15 = 2.5091 = 3 cans (approx.)

In the cafeteria tables are arranged in groups of 4, with each table seating 8 students. How many students can sit at 10 groups
Arisa [49]
4 tables = 1 group. So in 10 groups of tables, there are 40 tables. Each table seats 8 students, so you multiply 8 by 40, and that leaves your answer as 320 students. :)
