Answer:
16.28 mph ; 79.38°
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Speed of child due east = 3mph
Speed of ship due North = 16mph
Relative speed of th child is obtained by using Pythagoras rule to find the hypotenus
Relative Speed = Sqrt(3² + 16²)
Relative Speed = sqrt(9 + 256)
= sqrt(265)
= 16.2788 mph
= 16.28 mph
From trigonometry ;
Tanθ = opposite / Adjacent
Tanθ = (16 / 3)
Tanθ = 5.333
θ = tan^-1(5.333)
θ = 79.379°
θ = 79.38°
Answer:
(- 7, - 4 )
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic in standard form
y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )
Then the x- coordinate of the turning point is
x = -
y = x² + 14x + 45 ← is in standard form
with a = 1, b = 14 , then
x = - = - 7
Substitute x = - 7 into the equation and evaluate for y
y = (- 7)² + 14(- 7) + 45 = 49 - 98 + 45 = - 4
coordinates of turning point = (- 7, - 4 )
