Answer:
Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
A person stand 10 meters east of an intersection and watches a car driving towards the intersection from the north at 13 m/s.
From Pythagorean Theorem,
(The distance between car and person)²= (The distance of the car from intersection)²+ (The distance of the person from intersection)²+
Assume that the distance of the car from the intersection and from the person be x and y at any time t respectively.
∴y²= x²+10²
Differentiating with respect to t
Since the car driving towards the intersection at 13 m/s.
so,
Now
= -12 m/s
Negative sign denotes the distance between the car and the person decrease.
Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.
2x² - 15x + 7
(2x - 1)(2x-14)
(2x - 1)(x - 7) x= 1/2 or 7
A) -9
-7(x+9)=9(x-5)-14x
-7x-63=9x-45-14x
-45 -45
-7x-18=9x-14x
+7x +7x
-18=9x+7x-14x
-18=2x
(-18)/2=(2x)/2
-9=x
X= first number
x+1= second number
2x+1=275
2x=274
x+274
x=137 first number
137+1=138 second number

Answer:
38.2°
Step-by-step explanation:
The law of sines tells you ...
sin(x)/15 = sin(27°)/11
sin(x) = (15/11)sin(27°) . . . . . multiply by 15
x = arcsin((15/11)sin(27°)) ≈ arcsin(0.619078) ≈ 38.2488°
x ≈ 38.2°

<em>Additional comment</em>
In "law of sines" problems, you need to identify a side and opposite angle that you know both values of. Then, you need to identify whether you're looking for an angle or a side, and whether its opposite side or angle is known. If two angles are known, you can always figure the third from the sum of angles in a triangle.
Here, we have angle 27° opposite side 11. We are looking for an angle, and we know its opposite side. This lets us use the ratio formula directly. Since the angle is the unknown, it is useful to write the equation with sines on top and sides on the bottom.
The given angle is opposite the shorter of the given sides, so this triangle has two solutions. We assume that we want the solution that is an acute angle (141.8° is the other solution). That assumption is based on the drawing. Usually, you're cautioned not to take the drawings at face value.
