Answer: the rate at which the distance between the boats is increasing is 68 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
The direction of movement of both boats forms a right angle triangle. The distance travelled due south and due east by both boats represents the legs of the triangle. Their distance apart after t hours represents the hypotenuse of the right angle triangle.
Let x represent the length the shorter leg(south) of the right angle triangle.
Let y represent the length the longer leg(east) of the right angle triangle.
Let z represent the hypotenuse.
Applying Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse² = opposite side² + adjacent side²
Therefore
z² = x² + y²
To determine the rate at which the distances are changing, we would differentiate with respect to t. It becomes
2zdz/dt = 2xdx/dt + 2ydy/dt- - - -- - -1
One travels south at 32 mi/h and the other travels east at 60 mi/h. It means that
dx/dt = 32
dy/dt = 60
Distance = speed × time
Since t = 0.5 hour, then
x = 32 × 0.5 = 16 miles
y = 60 × 0.5 = 30 miles
z² = 16² + 30² = 256 + 900
z = √1156
z = 34 miles
Substituting these values into equation 1, it becomes
2 × 34 × dz/dt = (2 × 16 × 32) + 2 × 30 × 60
68dz/dt = 1024 + 3600
68dz/dt = 4624
dz/dt = 4624/68
dz/dt = 68 mph
Ok, so here your being asked to solve 6x2<span> + 5x = -7
The procedure that I did was using this formula it led me to get the following:
</span>Using the formula:
x = -(-5) ± √(-5)² - 4(6)(-6)/ 2(6)
x = 5 ± √ 25 + 144 / 12
x = 5 ± √ 169 / 12
x = 5 ± 13/12
x1 = 5 + 13/12
x1 = 18/12
x1 = 3/2
x2 = 5 - 13/12
x2 = -8/12
<span>
x2 = - 2/3
Hope this helped :)</span>
Answer:
find y intercept: x= 0 => y = 12
y = -x + 12 (1)
y = x + 12 (2) is answer

Answer:
x = 8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
6(3x - 4) = -8
Distribute the 6
18x -24 = -8
Add 24 to each side
18x -24+24 = -8+24
18x = 16
Divide each side by 18
18x/18 =16/18
Simplify the fraction by dividing top and bottom by 2
x = 8/9
