To solve this problem, let us first assign some variables.
Let us say that:
v1 = velocity of airplane = 180 mph
t1 = time travelled by airplane
v2 = velocity of jet = 330 mph
t2 = time travelled by jet
Since we know that distance is the product of velocity and
time, and that the distance travelled by the two must be equal for the jet to
catch up to the plane, hence:
v1 * t1 = v2 * t2
But we know that:
t1 = t2 + 1
Therefore:
180 (t2 + 1) = 330 t2
180 t2 + 180 = 330 t2
150 t2 = 180
t2 = 1.2 hours
<span>Therefore the jet can catch up to the plane after 1.2
hours it takes off.</span>
Answer:
L(x) = 11 - 2x
W(x) = 8.5 - 2x
V(x) = 4x³ - 39x² + 93.5x
Step-by-step explanation:
If a square of x sides length is cut from each corner of the sheet, then it meas the length and width of the box a shortened by x inces from each side, giving a total subtraction of 2 times x inches.
FORMULA FOR LENGTH:
Since, Length is the bigger side of the box. Therefore, it will be taken on 11 inches side of the paper:
<u>L(x) = 11 - 2x</u>
FORMULA FOR WIDTH:
Since, width is the smaller side of the box. Therefore, it will be taken on 8.5 inches side of the paper:
<u>W(x) = 8.5 - 2x </u>
FORMULA FOR VOLUME:
Volume is the product of length, width and time:
V(x) = L(x)*W(x)*H(x)
Height must be equal to the side folds which are equal to length of the side of square = x:
H(x) = x
Therefore,
V(x) = (11 - 2x)(8.5 - 2x)(x)
V(x) = (93.5 -22x -17x + 4x²)(x)
<u>V(x) = 4x³ - 39x² + 93.5x</u>
If you draw a diagram of this, your given values of the resulting triangle give you the sides opposite and adjacent of the angle. The formula that uses these sides is tangent.
The tangent of an angle is equal to the ratio of the opposite side over the other non-hypotenuse side (adjacent).
Therefore;
Where x is the length of the string in feet.
