Answer:

Choice D.  a - b = 12  and  a = 3b + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

so   |a - b| = 12  

a = 3b + 5

3b + 5 - b  = 12

2b + 5 = 12

b = 7/2

what if  b - a = 12

b - 3b - 5 = 12

-2b = 17

b < 0  no.

choice A. works  so does choice D.)

For questions 3 – 5, an airplane is heading south at an airspeed of 540 km/hr, but there is a wind blowing from the northeast at
GuDViN [60]

First, let's calculate the horizontal and vertical components of the wind speed (W) and the airplane speed (A), knowing that south is a bearing of 270° and northeast is a bearing of 45°:

\begin{gathered} W_x=W\cos45°\\ \\ W_x=50\cdot0.707\\ \\ W_x=35.35\\ \\ \\ \\ W_y=W\sin45°\\ \\ W_y=50\cdot0.707\\ \\ W_y=35.35 \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} A_x=A\cos270°\\ \\ A_x=540\cdot0\\ \\ A_x=0\\ \\ \\ \\ A_y=A\sin270°\\ \\ A_y=540\cdot(-1)\\ \\ A_y=-540 \end{gathered}

Now, let's add the components of the same direction:

\begin{gathered} V_x=W_x+A_x=35.35+0=35.35\\ \\ V_y=W_y+A_y=35.35-540=-504.65 \end{gathered}

To find the resultant bearing (theta), we can use the formula below:

\begin{gathered} \theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{V_y}{V_x})\\ \\ \theta=\tan^{-1}(\frac{-504.65}{35.35})\\ \\ \theta=-86° \end{gathered}

The angle -86° is equivalent to -86 + 360 = 274°.

Therefore the correct option is b.

Find the inflection point of the function of f(x) = x³ -6x² +12x
Wewaii [24]

Points of inflections are zeroes of the second derivative. We have:

f(x)=x^3-6x^2+12x\implies f'(x)=3x^2-12x\implies f''(x)=6x-12

So, the second derivative equals zero if and only if

f''(x)=0\iff 6x-12=0 \iff 6x=12 \iff x=2

So, this is the only point of inflection of this function.
