Answer:

5 5/8 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Martin can run 3 ¾ miles in 2/3 of an hour. Write a unit rate to describe the situation and explain the context.

We are asked to write the unit rate , this means we are to find out how many miles he can run per hour

Hence,

2/3 hour = 3 3/4 miles

1 hour = x

Cross Multiply

2/3 hour × x = 3 3/4 miles × 1 hour

x = 3 3/4 miles × 1 hour/ 2/3 hour

x = 3 3/4 ÷ 2/3

x = 15/4 ÷ 2/3

x = 15/4 × 3/2

x = 45/8

x = 5 5/8 miles per hour

Determine the equilibrium solutions

We have:

$\frac{dR}{dt} = 0.09R(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001RW$

$\frac{dW}{dt} = -0.02W + 0.00004RW$

To solve this, we first equate $\frac{dR}{dt}$ and $\frac{dW}{dt}$ to 0.

So, we have:

$0.09R(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001RW = 0$

$-0.02W + 0.00004RW = 0$

Factor out R in $0.09R(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001RW = 0$

$R(0.09(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001W) = 0$

Split

$R = 0$ or $0.09(1 - 0.00025R) - 0.001W = 0$

$R = 0$ or $0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001W = 0$

Factor out W in $-0.02W + 0.00004RW = 0$

$W(-0.02 + 0.00004R) = 0$

Split

$W = 0$ or $-0.02 + 0.00004R = 0$

Solve for R

$-0.02 + 0.00004R = 0$

$0.00004R = 0.02$

Make R the subject

$R = \frac{0.02}{0.00004}$

$R = 500$

When $R = 500$ , we have:

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001W = 0$

$0.09 -2.25 * 10^{-5} * 500 - 0.001W = 0$

$0.09 -0.01125 - 0.001W = 0$

$0.07875 - 0.001W = 0$

Collect like terms

$- 0.001W = -0.07875$

Solve for W

$W = \frac{-0.07875}{ - 0.001}$

$W = 78.75$

$W \approx 79$

$(R,W) \to (500,79)$

When $W = 0$ , we have:

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001W = 0$

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R - 0.001*0 = 0$

$0.09 - 2.25 * 10^{-5}R = 0$

Collect like terms

$- 2.25 * 10^{-5}R = -0.09$

Solve for R

$R = \frac{-0.09}{- 2.25 * 10^{-5}}$

$R = 4000$

So, we have:

$(R,W) \to (4000,0)$

When $R =0$ , we have:

$-0.02W + 0.00004RW = 0$

$-0.02W + 0.00004W*0 = 0$

$-0.02W + 0 = 0$

$-0.02W = 0$

$W=0$

So, we have:

$(R,W) \to (0,0)$

Hence, the points of equilibrium are:

$(0,0)$ $(4000,0)$ and $(500,79)$

Given: PRST is a square

xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

$(1-\sqrt{2})a^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider irght triangle PRS. By the Pythagorean theorem,

$PS^2=PR^2+RS^2\\ \\PS^2=a^2+a^2\\ \\PS^2=2a^2\\ \\PS=\sqrt{2}a$

Thus,

$MS=PS-PM=\sqrt{2}a-a=(\sqrt{2}-1)a$

Consider isosceles triangle MSC. In this triangle

$MS=MC=(\sqrt{2}-1)a.$

The area of this triangle is

$A_{MSC}=\dfrac{1}{2}MS\cdot MC=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot (\sqrt{2}-1)a\cdot (\sqrt{2}-1)a=\dfrac{(\sqrt{2}-1)^2a^2}{2}=\dfrac{(3-2\sqrt{2})a^2}{2}$

Consider right triangle PTS. The area of this triangle is

$A_{PTS}=\dfrac{1}{2}PT\cdot TS=\dfrac{1}{2}a\cdot a=\dfrac{a^2}{2}$

The area of the quadrilateral PMCT is the difference in area of triangles PTS and MSC:

$A_{PMCT}=\dfrac{(3-2\sqrt{2})a^2}{2}-\dfrac{a^2}{2}=\dfrac{(2-2\sqrt{2})a^2}{2}=(1-\sqrt{2})a^2$
