Answer:

B. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

-6x = 5x + 22

Put the like terms together, so subtract 5x from the right side. This will result in the new equation, -11x = 22

Now, divide by -11. This will result in the final equation, x = -2

From the trigonometry:

tan θ = (sin θ) / (cos θ)
cot θ = (cos θ) / (sin θ)

∴ tan θ + cot θ = (sin θ) / (cos θ) + (cos θ) / (sin θ)
= [ sin² θ + cos² θ]/( sin θ cos θ) = 1 /( sin θ cos θ )

note : sin² θ + cos² θ = 1

Students in a high school mathematics class decided that their term project would be a study of

The parameter of interest in this scenario is the proportion of all 1,000 students within the school who have "strict" parents or guardians.

<h3>How to calculate a test statistic?</h3>

In Mathematics, the test statistics of a given sample is calculated by using this formula:

$Z=\frac{x\;-\;u}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$

<u>Where:</u>

x is the sample mean.

u is the mean.

is the standard deviation.

n is the sample size.

In conclusion, a possible test statistic which can be used to estimate this parameter is the proportion of all students who have "strict" parents or guardians, based on the collected sample.

A ladder 16 feet long is leaning against the wall of a tall building. The base of the ladder is moving away from the wall at a r

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

a. 0.588

b. 0.0722

c. 4.576 sqft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let b and h denote the base and height as indicated in the diagram. By pythagoras theorem, $h^2 + b^2 = 16^2 = 256 \dotsc\;(1)$ because it is a right angle triangle.

It is given that $\frac{db}{dt} = 1$

Now differentiate (1) with respect to t (time) :

$\displaystyle{2h\frac{dh}{dt} + 2b\frac{db}{dt} = 0 \implies \frac{dh}{dt} = -\frac{b}{h} \frac{db}{dt}}$

$\displaystyle{=-\frac{b}{\sqrt{256 - b^2}} \frac{db}{dt} = -\frac{8}{13.856} \times 1 = -0.588}$

The minus sign indicates that the value of h is actually decreasing. The required answer is 0.588.

b. From the diagram, infer that $16 \sin{\theta} = b$ . When b = 8, then $\theta = \arcsin{0.5} = \ang{30}$ .

Differentiate the above equation w.r.t t

$\displaystyle{16 \cos{\theta} \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{db}{dt} \implies \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{16 \cos{\theta}} = \frac{1}{13.856} = \mathbf{0.0722}}$

c. The area of the triangle is given by $A = 0.5\times h \times b$ . Differentiating w.r.t t,

$\displatstyle{\frac{dA}{dt} = 0.5 b \frac{dh}{dt} + 0.5 h \frac{db}{dt}}$

Plugging in b = 8, h = 13.856, $\frac{dh}{dt} = -0.588$ ,

$\frac{dA}{dt} = -2.352 + 6.928 = \mathbf{4.576 ft^2/sec}$
