Solve for the distance between the points (4, 4) and (1, -3).

1 answer:

7 0

I think the distance is 3/7. This is because 4 minus 1 is 3 (they are both in the same quadrant, so u subtract/are both positive too). -3 is three away from zero and 4 is 4 away from zero. If you add those together, you get those points (also, u add numbers in different quadrants together). Therefore, the distance is 3/7. Hope this helps!

Given the position of the particle, what the position(s) of the particle when it’s at rest

choli [55]

The position function of a particle is given by:

$X\mleft(t\mright)=\frac{2}{3}t^3-\frac{9}{2}t^2-18t$

The velocity function is the derivative of the position:

$\begin{gathered} V(t)=\frac{2}{3}(3t^2)-\frac{9}{2}(2t)-18 \\ \text{Simplifying:} \\ V(t)=2t^2-9t-18 \end{gathered}$

The particle will be at rest when the velocity is 0, thus we solve the equation:

$2t^2-9t-18=0$

The coefficients of this equation are: a = 2, b = -9, c = -18

Solve by using the formula:

$t=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt[]{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

Substituting:

$\begin{gathered} t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81-4(2)(-18)}}{2(2)} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{81+144}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm\sqrt[]{225}}{4} \\ t=\frac{9\pm15}{4} \end{gathered}$

We have two possible answers:
