Answer:

The length of the AR is  3\sqrt{17}  or 12.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the endpoints of a line segment AR

  • A(8, -2)
  • R(-4, 1)

We can calculate the length of AR using the formula

L_{AB}=\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

In our case,

  • (x₁, y₁) = (8, -2)  
  • (x₂, y₂) = (-4, 1)

Substituting (x₁, y₁) = (8, -2) and (x₂, y₂) = (-4, 1) in the formula

L_{AB}=\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

        =\sqrt{\left(-4-8\right)^2+\left(1-\left(-2\right)\right)^2}

        =\sqrt{\left(-4-8\right)^2+\left(1+2\right)^2}            ∵ Apply rule:  -\left(-a\right)=a

        =\sqrt{12^2+3^2}

        =\sqrt{144+9}

        =\sqrt{153}

        =\sqrt{9\times 17}

         =\sqrt{17}\sqrt{3^2}          Apply radical rule:   \sqrt[n]{ab}=\sqrt[n]{a}\sqrt[n]{b}

         =3\sqrt{17}              Apply radical rule:   \sqrt[n]{a^n}=a

         =12.4

Therefore, the length of the AR is  3\sqrt{17}  or 12.4 units.

An aquarium 2 m long, 1 m wide, and 1 m deep is full of water. Find the work (in J) needed to pump half of the water out of the
Nitella [24]

Answer:

W=2452.5 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The work is define as the integral of the force times distance. So we have:

W=\int^{a}_{b}Fxdx

Now, we can write the force in terms of density.

F=m*g=\rho Vg

V is the volume (V=2*1*1=2 m³)

So the work will be:

W=\int^{0.5}_{0} 2*1000*9.81*xdx=\int^{0.5}_{0} 2*1000*9.81*xdx=\int^{0.5}_{0}19620xdx=19620(\frac{x^{2}}{2})|^{0.5}_{0}

The limit of integration is between 0 and 0.5 because we want to pump half of the water out of the aquarium.

W=19620(\frac{x^{2}}{2})|^{0.5}_{0}=19620(\frac{0.5^{2}}{2})

W=2452.5 J

I hope it helps you!

The probability of rolling a 2 is 1/6 predict how many times a 2 will be rolled out of 30 rolls.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the probability of a 2 is \frac{1}{6} then number of times a 2 will be rolled is

30 × \frac{1}{6} = 5

Answer:

The cost is a fixed $2, plus $3.25 for any additional hour.

Then if you rent it for x hours, the cost is:

c(x) = $2 + $3.25*x

Is this situation continuous or discrete?

Yes, it is discrete, because x is "the number of hours"

so if you rent it for 1.30 hours, they will say "ok, this is equivalent to two hours".

This means that while the values of x are continuous, the possible costs are:

{$2, $2 + $3.25, $2 + 2*$3.25, ....}

Which is a discrete set.

Then the sign for 1 to 5 hours will be:

1 hour ---------- $2 + $3.25 = $5.25

2 hours -------- $2 + 2*$3.25 = $8.50

3 hours--------- $2 + 3*$3.25 = $11.75

4 hours--------- $2 + 4*$3.25 =  $15

5 hours -------- $2 + 5*$3.25 = $18.25

In the other park the cost is only $4 for each hour (no fixed cost) then the total cost for x hours is:

c(x) = $4*x

Now, which option is better?

If we look at the costs for different numbers of hours for this other equation, we have:

1 hour ----- $4

2 hours ---- 2*$4 = $8

3 hours ----- 3*$4 = $12

4 hours ------ 4*$4 = $16

Then: if you want to skate 2 hours or less, Skate City is cheaper, if you want to skate more than that, kate Days is cheaper.

This happens because the first one has a smaller slope, meaning that is larger at first, but as x grows the price does not grow as much as in Skate City
