#5 is 5 days
40×5=200
200+150=250
20×5=100
100+150=250
Answer:
k is 2/3 and y is -1/3 when x is -0.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
The direct variation relationship is y = kx, where k is the const. of var.
Subbing 3 for x and 2 for y, 2 = 3k, or k = 2/3.
Now, if x = -0.5, y = (2/3)(-1/2) = -1/3
k is 2/3 and y is -1/3 when x is -0.5.
For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
n: number of days.
We now write the explicit formula that represents the problem.
We have then:
an = 4n + 15
Where,
15: crunches the first day
4: increase the number 4 each day
Answer:
An explicit formula for the number of crunches Abbie will do on day n is:
an = 4n + 15
Answer:
3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The shadow is decreasing at the rate of 3.55 inch/min
Step-by-step explanation:
The height of the building = 60ft
The shadow of the building on the level ground is 25ft long
Ѳ is increasing at the rate of 0.24°/min
Using SOHCAHTOA,
Tan Ѳ = opposite/ adjacent
= height of the building / length of the shadow
Tan Ѳ = h/x
X= h/tan Ѳ
Recall that tan Ѳ = sin Ѳ/cos Ѳ
X= h/x (sin Ѳ/cos Ѳ)
Differentiate with respect to t
dx/dt = (-h/sin²Ѳ)dѲ/dt
When x= 25ft
tanѲ = h/x
= 60/25
Ѳ= tan^-1(60/25)
= 67.38°
dѲ/dt= 0.24°/min
Convert the height in ft to inches
1 ft = 12 inches
Therefore, 60ft = 60*12
= 720 inches
Convert degree/min to radian/min
1°= 0.0175radian
Therefore, 0.24° = 0.24 * 0.0175
= 0.0042 radian/min
Recall that
dx/dt = (-h/sin²Ѳ)dѲ/dt
= (-720/sin²(67.38))*0.0042
= (-720/0.8521)*0.0042
-3.55 inch/min
Therefore, the rate at which the length of the shadow of the building decreases is 3.55 inches/min
