<span>Amoeba splits 3 times an hour. If Amoeba can split into two every 20 mins then if you divide 60 mins (which would be an hour) by 20 mins (the time they split) you would find that Amoeba can split 3 times in an hour. The question asks how many times it can split in two hours. To find this you have to multiply the 3 times 2. This means that a single Amoeba can split 6 times in two hours. There are 15 Amoeba which means if you take 15 Amoeba time 6 in two hours and 90 would be your answer. There will be 90 Amoeba after the two hours.</span>
Answer: the rate at which the distance between the boats is increasing is 68 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The direction of movement of both boats forms a right angle triangle. The distance travelled due south and due east by both boats represents the legs of the triangle. Their distance apart after t hours represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
Let x represent the length the shorter leg(south) of the right angle triangle.
Let y represent the length the longer leg(east) of the right angle triangle.
Let z represent the hypotenuse.
Applying Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
Therefore
z² = x² + y²
To determine the rate at which the distances are changing, we would differentiate with respect to t. It becomes
2zdz/dt = 2xdx/dt + 2ydy/dt- - - -- - -1
One travels south at 32 mi/h and the other travels east at 60 mi/h. It means that
dx/dt = 32
dy/dt = 60
Distance = speed × time
Since t = 0.5 hour, then
x = 32 × 0.5 = 16 miles
y = 60 × 0.5 = 30 miles
z² = 16² + 30² = 256 + 900
z = √1156
z = 34 miles
Substituting these values into equation 1, it becomes
2 × 34 × dz/dt = (2 × 16 × 32) + 2 × 30 × 60
68dz/dt = 1024 + 3600
68dz/dt = 4624
dz/dt = 4624/68
dz/dt = 68 mph
The answer is 100 I’m sure
