answer is C. 252 ft^2

split the figure into two pieces and first figure out the rectangle (shown in turquoise).

If you multiply the width and length (18*6) you should get 108.

Then figure out the trapezoid (in magenta). the formula is (a+b)/2*h where a and b are the bases and h is the height. the bases are given, 6 and 18. to find the height, subtract the entire figure's height by 6, which is 18-6 and gives us 12. so the formula converted to this problem is (6+18)/2*12. simplify parenthesis and get 24/2*12. 24/2=12, so multiply 12*12. The area of the trapezoid is 144. Add the areas of both figures together and get 252.

Consider the circle of radius 5 centered at (0, 0). Find an equation of the line tangent to the circle at the point (3, 4) in sl

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

$\displaystyle y= -\frac{3}{4} x + \frac{25}{4}$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle of radius $5$ centered at $(0,0)$ is:

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 5^{2}$ .

$x^{2} + y^{2} = 25$ .

Differentiate implicitly with respect to $x$ to find the slope of tangents to this circle.

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}[x^{2} + y^{2}] = \frac{d}{dx}[25]$

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(x^{2}) + \frac{d}{dx}(y^{2}) = 0$ .

Apply the power rule and the chain rule. Treat $y$ as a function of $x$ , $f(x)$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(x^{2}) + \frac{d}{dx}(f(x))^{2} = 0$ .

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(2x) + \frac{d}{dx}(2f(x)\cdot f^{\prime}(x)) = 0$ .

That is:

$\displaystyle \frac{d}{dx}(2x) + \frac{d}{dx}\left(2y \cdot \frac{dy}{dx}\right) = 0$ .

Solve this equation for $\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}$ :

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{x}{y}$ .

The slope of the tangent to this circle at point $(3, 4)$ will thus equal

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx} = -\frac{3}{4}$ .

Apply the slope-point of a line in a cartesian plane:

$y - y_0 = m(x - x_0)$ , where

$m$ is the gradient of this line, and
$(x_0, y_0)$ are the coordinates of a point on that line.

For the tangent line in this question:

$\displaystyle m = -\frac{3}{4}$ ,
$(x_0, y_0) = (3, 4)$ .

The equation of this tangent line will thus be:

$\displaystyle y - 4 = -\frac{3}{4} (x - 3)$ .

That simplifies to

$\displaystyle y= -\frac{3}{4} x + \frac{25}{4}$ .

The ground temperature at sea level is 60 degrees F. For every 100-foot increase in elevation, the temperature rises 1/10 of one

N76 [4]

<h3>Answer: B. 62 degrees fahrenheit</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

x = elevation in feet

y = temperature in fahrenheit

The temperature goes up 1/10 = 0.1 degrees for every 100-foot increase of elevation. So the slope is 0.1/100 = 0.001, which tells us how fast the temperature is increasing. In other words, the temperature goes up 0.001 degrees each time the elevation goes up by 1 foot.

The ground temperature is 60 degrees, which is our starting temperature. It's the value of y when x = 0. Therefore, 60 is the y intercept.

We have a slope of m = 0.001 and a y intercept of b = 60. The equation y = mx+b becomes y = 0.1x+60

Now plug in x = 2000 to find the temperature at this elevation

y = 0.001x+60

y = 0.001*2000+60

y = 2+60

y = 62
