From his house, Manuel could drive due north to get to his parents' house or he could drive due east to get to his grandparents'

house. It is 6 miles from Manuel's house to his parents' house and a straight-line distance of 10 miles from his parents' house to his grandparents' house. How far is Manuel from his grandparents' house?

Answer:

The distance is 8 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Manuel's house, his parents house, and grandparents house can be expressed as the three vertices of a right angled triangle. Thus, Pythagoras theorem can be applied to determine the distance from Manual's house to that of his grandparents.

Let the distance from Manuel's house to that of his grandparents be represented by x, so that;

/Hyp/^{2} = /Adj 1/^{2} + /Adj 2/^{2}

/10/^{2} = /x/^{2} + /6/^{2}

100 = x^{2} + 36

x^{2} = 100 - 36

   = 64

⇒ x = \sqrt{64}

      = 8

x = 8 miles

Thus, Manuel's house is 8 miles from his grandparents house.

All functions have an inverse expression.

  • The cost function is: \mathbf{C(x) = 40000 + 100x}.
  • The inverse function is: \mathbf{C'(x) = 0.01x - 400 }

From the question, we have the following observations:

  • Base fare = 50000 pesos for first 100
  • Additional guest = 100 pesos

So, the cost function would be:

\mathbf{C(x) = 50000 + (x - 100) \times 100}

Where: x represents the number of guests, and C(x) represents the cost function

Expand

\mathbf{C(x) = 50000 + 100x - 10000}

Evaluate like terms

\mathbf{C(x) = 40000 + 100x}

To calculate the inverse function, we have:

\mathbf{C(x) = 40000 + 100x}

Replace C(x) with y

\mathbf{y = 40000 + 100x}

Swap x and y

\mathbf{x = 40000 + 100y}

Subtract 40000 from both sides

\mathbf{x - 40000 = 100y}

Divide both sides by 100

\mathbf{\frac{x - 40000}{100} = y}

Rewrite as:

\mathbf{y= \frac{x - 40000}{100} }

Split

\mathbf{y= \frac{x}{100} - \frac{40000}{100} }

\mathbf{y= 0.01x - 400 }

Hence, the inverse function is: \mathbf{C'(x) = 0.01x - 400 }

I don't know what to do
Zarrin [17]
Check the picture below

use the far-arc near-arc equation

bear in mind, your far-arc and near-arc are both in y-terms, so, the angle will be in y-terms as well
