Answer:

<em>Jane traveled 8 miles farther then her trainer</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The Pythagora's Theorem</u>

In any right triangle, the square of the measure of the hypotenuse is the sum of the squares of the legs. This can be expressed with the formula:

c^2=a^2+b^2

Where

c = Hypotenuse or largest side

a,b = Legs or shorter sides

Jane's path from the Health Club to the end of her route describes two sides of a right triangle of lengths a=16 miles and b=12 miles.

Her total distance traveled is 16 + 12 = 28 miles

Her trainer goes directly from the Health Club to meet her through the hypotenuse of the triangle formed in the path.

We can calculate the length of his route as:

c=\sqrt{16^2+12^2}

c=\sqrt{256+144}=\sqrt{400}=20

c = 20 miles

The difference between their traveled lengths is 28 - 20 = 8 miles

Jane traveled 8 miles farther then her trainer

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

the answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

To find dy/dx the equation here is

first multipled by derivative of second + second multipled by derivative of first

y = x*sinx

dy/dx = x * derivative of sinx + sinx * derivative of x

derivative of x with respect to x is 1

derivative of sinx with respect to x is cosx

therefore

dy/dx = x * cosx + sinx * 1

= x * cosx + sinx

Mike took a taxi from his home to the airport. The taxi driver charged an initial fee of $6 plus $3 per mile. The total fare was
barxatty [35]
Hello! To solve this problem, we can write and solve an equation. Set it up like this:

6 + 3m = 24

This is because 6 is the one-time fixed price and you pay $3 per mile. Subtract 6 from both sides in order to get 3m = 18. Now, divide each side by 3 to isolate the “m”. 18/3 is 6. There. m = 6. Mike traveled 6 miles by taxi.

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)
KIM [24]

Answer:  tan(14x)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Consider the Sum Formula for tan:

tan(A + B)=\dfrac{tan(A)+tan(B)}{1-tan(A)(tan(B)}\\\\\\tan(9x+5x)=\dfrac{tan(9x)+tan(5x)}{1-tan(9x)(tan(5x)}\\\\\\\large\boxed{tan(14x)}=\dfrac{tan(9x)+tan(5x)}{1-tan(9x)(tan(5x)}
