Answer:

3.019 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case they ask us to calculate the time in hours that are in those distances, for this we have the speed and the distance, we know that speed is equal to:

v = d / t

therefore the time would be:

t = d / t

we must pass the distance that is in kilometers to miles, like this:

350 km * 1 mile / 1.61 km = 217.4 mi

Now if replacing:

t = 217.4 / 72 = 3.019

Therefore, the time would be 3.019 hours.

Suppose that y varies inversely with x, and y=4 when x=7. What is an equation for the inverse variation
balu736 [363]

Answer:

xy = 28

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for inverse variation is

xy =k

If y = 4 and x = 7

4*7 = k

28 = k

The equation is xy = 28

Show whether or not y=x+3 is tangential to the curve y^2=x​
wolverine [178]

The line y = x + 3 has slope 1, so we look for points on the curve where the tangent line, whose slope is dy/dx, is equal to 1.

y² = x

Take the derivative of both sides with respect to x, assuming y = y(x) :

2y dy/dx = 1

dy/dx = 1/(2y)

Solve for y when dy/dx = 1 :

1 = 1/(2y)

2y = 1

y = 1/2

When y = 1/2, we have x = y² = (1/2)² = 1/4. However, for the given line, when y = 1/2, we have x = y - 3 = 1/2 - 3 = -5/2.

This means the line y = x + 3 is not a tangent to the curve y² = x. In fact, the line never even touches y² = x :

x = y²   ⇒   y = y² + 3   ⇒   y² - y + 3 = 0

has no real solution for y.

Given that sin theta = 1/4, 0
GaryK [48]
Answer: cos(Θ) = (√15) / 4

Explanation:

The question states:

1) sin(Θ) = 1/4

2) 0 < Θ < π / 2

3) find cos(Θ)

This is how you solve it.

1) Use the fundamental identity (in this part I use α instead of Θ, just for facility of wirting the symbols, but they mean the same for the case).

(cos \alpha )^2 + (sin \alpha )^2 =1

2) From which you can find:

(cos \alpha )^2 = 1 - (sin \alpha )^2

3) Replace sin(α) with 1/4

=> (cos \alpha )^2 = 1 - (1/4)^2 = 1 - 1/16 = 15/16

=> cos \alpha =+/- \sqrt{15/16} = +/- (\sqrt{15} )/4

4) Given that the angle is in the first quadrant, you know that cosine is positive and the final answer is:

cos(Θ) = \sqrt{15} /4.

And that is the answer.
