Answer:

(3, 1.7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point at which the vertices of a triangle meet is known as the orthocenter of the triangle. The orthocenter passes through the vertex of the triangle and is perpendicular to the opposite sides.

Two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes is -1.

The slope of the line joining D(0,0), F(3,7) is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-0}=\frac{7}{3}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining D and F is -3/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining D and F and passes through vertex E(7, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=-\frac{3}{7} (x-7)\\\\y=-\frac{3}{7}x+3 \ .\ .\ .\ (1)

The slope of the line joining E(7,0), and F(3,7). is:

m_1=\frac{7-0}{3-7}=-\frac{7}{4}

The slope of the line perpendicular to the line joining E and F is 4/7. The orthocenter is perpendicular to the line joining E and F and passes through vertex D(0, 0). The equation is hence:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\y-0=\frac{4}{7} (x-0)\\\\y=\frac{4}{7} x\ .\ .\ .\ (2)

The point of intersection of equation 1 and equation 2 is the orthocenter. Solving equation 1 and 2 simultaneously gives:

x = 3, y = 1.7

A chemical flows into a storage tank at a rate of (180+3t) liters per minute, where t is the time in minutes and 0&lt;=t&lt;=60
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The amount of the chemical flows into the tank during the firs 20 minutes is 4200 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

A chemical flows into a storage tank at a rate of (180+3t) liters per minute,

Let c(t) is the amount of chemical in the take at <em>t </em>time.

Now find the rate of change of chemical flow during the first 20 minutes.

\int\limits^{20}_{0} {c'(t)} \, dt =\int\limits^{20}_0 {(180+3t)} \, dt

\int\limits^{20}_{0} {c'(t)} \, dt =\left[180t+\dfrac{3}{2}t^2\right]^{20}_0

\int\limits^{20}_{0} {c'(t)} \, dt =3600+600

\int\limits^{20}_{0} {c'(t)} \, dt =4200

So, the amount of the chemical flows into the tank during the firs 20 minutes is 4200 liters.
