<h3>Answer: B) 6 minutes</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

Let's find the slope of the table. This will tell us the rate of change.

m = slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (25250 - 26375)/(2 - 1) .... I used the first two rows

m = -1125/1

m = -1125

The slope of -1125 means the plane's altitude is decreasing at a rate of 1125 feet per minute. This is the descent speed.

Since we're told the initial altitude was 27500 ft, this means b = 27500

This means y = mx+b turns into y = -1125x+27500

x is the number of minutes and y is the altitude at time x

As a way to check this, plug in various x values of the table. You should get corresponding y values that match the table. I'll let you do this part.

------------------

Now plug in y = 16250 and solve for x

y = -1125x+27500

16250 = -1125x+27500

-1125x+27500 = 16250

-1125x = 16250-27500

-1125x = -11250

x = -11250/(-1125)

x = 10

It takes 10 minutes after the descent period has started, for the pilot to get to 16,250 ft.

Since the pilot was contacted at the x = 4 minute mark, this means 10-4 = 6 minutes is the duration needed for the pilot to go from 23,000 ft to 16,250 ft.

the diameter of a cylindrical construction pipe is 4 ft. if the pipe is 19 ft long, what s it’s volume?

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

76 $\pi$ or 238.76 $units^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cylinder is V = $\pi r^{2} h$

Here the radius is r = $\frac{1}{2} d$ = $\frac{1}{2}(4)=2$

The height is given as 19 ft

Then plug in all the numbers into the equation

V = $\pi (2^{2})(19) = 76\pi = 238.76 units^{3}$

Write and equation of the translated or rotated graph in general form (picture below)

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The answer is hyperbola; (x')² - (y')² - 16 = 0 ⇒ answer (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

* At first lets talk about the general form of the conic equation

- Ax² + Bxy + Cy² + Dx + Ey + F = 0

∵ B² - 4AC < 0 , if a conic exists, it will be either a circle or an ellipse.

∵ B² - 4AC = 0 , if a conic exists, it will be a parabola.

∵ B² - 4AC > 0 , if a conic exists, it will be a hyperbola.

* Now we will study our equation:

xy = -8

∵ A = 0 , B = 1 , C = 0

∴ B² - 4 AC = (1)² - 4(0)(0) = 1 > 0

∴ B² - 4AC > 0

∴ The graph is hyperbola

* The equation xy = -8

∵ We have term xy that means we rotated the graph about

the origin by angle Ф

∵ Ф = π/4

∴ We rotated the x-axis and the y-axis by angle π/4

* That means the point (x' , y') it was point (x , y)

- Where x' = xcosФ - ysinФ and y' = xsinФ + ycosФ

∴ x' = xcos(π/4) - ysin(π/4) , y' = xsin(π/4) + ycos(π/4)

∴ x' = x/√2 - y/√2 = (x - y)/√2

∴ y' = x/√2 + y/√2 = (x + y)/√2

* Lets substitute x' and y' in the 1st answer

∵ (x')² - (y')² - 16 = 0

∴ $(\frac{x-y}{\sqrt{2}})^{2}-(\frac{x+y}{\sqrt{2}})^{2}=$

( $\frac{x^{2}-2xy+y^{2}}{2})-(\frac{x^{2}+2xy+y^{2}}{2})-16=0$

* Lets open the bracket

∴ $\frac{x^{2}-2xy+y^{2}-x^{2}-2xy-y^{2}}{2}-16=0$

* Lets add the like terms

∴ $\frac{-4xy}{2}-16=0$

* Simplify the fraction

∴ -2xy - 16 = 0

* Divide the equation by -2

∴ xy + 8 = 0

∴ xy = -8 ⇒ our equation

∴ Answer (a) is our answer

∴ The answer is hyperbola; (x')² - (y')² - 16 = 0

* Look at the graph:

- The black is the equation (x')² - (y')² - 16 = 0

- The purple is the equation xy = -8

- The red line is x'

- The blue line is y'

a shopkeeper sold a certain number ( a two-digit number)of toys all priced at a certain value (also a two-digit number when expr

Makovka662 [10]

The answer is 91 toys sold, make the number ab where a is the 10th digit and b is the first digit. The value is 10a + b that can expressed as 10 (3) + 4 = 34

Let the price of each item: xy

10x + y

He accidentally reversed the digits to: 10b + a toys sold at 10y + x rupees per toy. To get use the formula, he sold 10a + b toys but thought he sold 10b + a toys. The number of toys that he thought he left over was 72 items more than the actual amount of toys left over. So he sold 72 more toys than he thought:

10a + b =10b + a +72

9a = 9b + 72

a = b + 8

The only numbers that could work are a = 9 and b = 1 since a and b each have to be 1 digit numbers. He reversed the digits and thought he sold 19 toys. So the actual number of toys sold was 10a + b = 10 (9) + 1 = 91 toys sold. By checking, he sold 91 – 19 = 72 toys more than the amount that he though the sold. As a result, the number of toys he thought he left over was 72 more than the actual amount left over as was stated in the question.
