Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
ignore the "at the instant the man is 30 feet away" part, set it as X and the man's shadow as Y.
Similar triangles so we can do
.
Solve for it we get 44y = 6x
Differentiate relative to time t, we get 44y' = 6x'.
change in x (x') is equal to 5. And we get the answer y' =
.
the
ft/sec is the rate of which the length of the shadow is changing. add 5 to it for the rate of the tip of his shadow moving away from the tower.
You are told that the perimeter is 146 units. You look at the diagram and add up all the sides, which tells you the total perimeter. You then equate 146 and the total perimeter, as you know both these equal the perimeter. Then solve for x by using algebra.
Answer: 0
Step-by-step explanation:
So the slope of a line is equal to rise over run, or the change in x over the change in y. We can solve for the change in x and the change in y by finding their differences. For the math, we use the formulas y2 - y1/x2 - x1. Filling in this formula we get, (5-5)/(3-13), which is equal to 0/10. Because 0 divided by anything is 0, the answer here is 0.
14= 3k-4
_ less than _ = -
3* k simplified= 3k
