Answer: The distance between them is 8.38 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's suppose both of them start at the point (0km, 0km), and that Jack walks along the positive x-axis, then Jill walks at an angle of 105° measured from the positive x-axis.

After 45 minutes, jack has walked 4.5km, then if his initial position was (0 km, 0 km)

Then his new position will be (4.5km, 0km)

Jill has walked 6km, but we need to write this in rectangular components.

We can think in this as a triangle rectangle, then the components will be:

x-component = 6 km*cos(105°) = -1.55 km

y-component = 6km*sin(105°) = 5.80 km

Then the new position of Jill is ( -1.55km, 5.80km)

Now, we know that the distance between two points (a, b) and (c, d) is:

Distance = √( (a - c)^2 + (b - d)^2)

Then the distance between Jill and Jack will be equal to the distance between ( -1.55km, 5.80km) and (4.5km, 0km)

This is:

Distance = √( (-1.55km - 4.5km)^2 + (5.80km - 0km)^2)

Distance = 8.38 km

This means that they are 8.38km apart.

The volume of a cube-shaped box with edges 6 centimeters in length?
Marizza181 [45]
Since the length of each side of cube is s.

Volume of a cube = s³ = s*s*s

Since length of side = 6cm

Volume = 6³ = 6*6*6 = 216

Volume = 216 cm³

Option A.

a 1ft long piece of wire needs to be divided into two pieces which will form the shape of a circle and a square. Determine the l
yan [13]

Answer:

Length of wire for circle is 0.44 ft

Length of wire for square is 0.56 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x is circumference of the circle

then

(1-x) = perimeter of the square

Find the radius of the circle

r =  (x/2.π)

Find the area of the circle

a =  π(x/2π)^2

a =  π(x^2/4π^2)

Cancel π

a =  x^2/4π

Find the area of the square:

a =  (1-x/4)^2

a =  (1-2x+x^2)/16

Total area

A =  (x^2/4π)+(1-2x+x^2/16)

A = 4x^2+3.142-6.284x+3.142x^2

A = 7.142x^2-6.284x+3.142

Find the axis of symmetry [x = -b/(2a)]

x =  -(-6.284)/{2.(7.142)}

x =  6.284/14.284

x = 0.44 ft, the piece of wire creating a circle

and

1 - 0.44 = 0.56 ft, the piece of wire creating the square

These lengths should give minimum area of the circle and square together
