A Ferris wheel is 35 meters in diameter and boarded from a platform that is 3 meters above the ground. The six o'clock position

of the Ferris wheel is level with the loading platform. The wheel completes one revolution in 8 minutes. The function, h(t), gives your height in meters above the ground t minutes after the wheel beings to turn. How high are you off the ground after 6 minutes

Answer:

height = 20.5068 m    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

First, lets calculate the amplitude, midline and period of 8minutes

Amplitude = 35 / 2 = 17.5

|A| = 17.5

A = - 17.5  { since the wheel starts at 6 o clock }

midline  C = (35/2) + 3

C = 17.5 + 3

C = 20.5

And period is 8 minutes

⇒ 2π/B = 8

8B = 2π

B = 2π/8 = π/4

So our equation will be in the form of;

y = h(t) = Acos(B×t) + C

∴ h(t) = -17.5cos( π/4×t) + 20.5  

Now, How high are you off the ground after 6 minutes

⇒ height = -17.5cos( π/4 × 6) + 20.5

height = -17.5cos( π/4 × 6) + 20.5    

height = -17.5cos( 4.71238898) + 20.5    

height = -17.5 × cos( 4.712) + 20.5  

height = -17.5 × -0.00038898 + 20.5                  

height = 0.0068 + 20.5  

height = 20.5068 m

The theory that it is reasonable to chose the simpler theory when choosing between two competing theories of equal explanatory v
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Occam’s razor theory.

Step-by-step explanation:

This theory is known as Occam’s razor theory.

It's a theory based on the principle whereby we give precedence to simplicity. It states that out of two competing theories, the one with the simpler explanation of an object should be embraced over the other. The reason is that the philosopher William of Ockham said that "objects are not meant to be multiplied beyond absolute necessity.”

This definition resonates with what is explained in the question.

Thus, the theory is as explained.

Given the functions f(x) = 2x + 5 and g(x) = x2 + 8, which of the following functions represents f(g(x)] correctly?
lakkis [162]

Answer:

Choice 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(g(x))

Replace g(x) with x^2+8 since g(x)=x^2+8.

f(g(x))

f(x^2+8)

Replace old input,x, in f with new input, (x^2+8).

f(g(x))

f(x^2+8)

2(x^2+8)+5

Distribute:

f(g(x))

f(x^2+8)

2(x^2+8)+5

2x^2+16+5

Combine like terms:

f(g(x))

f(x^2+8)

2(x^2+8)+5

2x^2+16+5

2x^2+21
