Answer: Bottom-Right corner
The points are (-5,6) (-5,-6) (4,-6)

-----------------------------------------

Explanation:

What you do is go through each of the answer choices, plot the points, and see which give you a right triangle. A right triangle has one 90 degree angle. 

The upper-left choice leads to an obtuse triangle, so we can cross that off the list. It turns out that the other choices lead to right triangles.

The upper-right choice has a hypotenuse of roughly 11.18, so that's also eliminated

The bottom-left choice has a hypotenuse of 10.82, which means we cross that off the list

The bottom-right choice has a hypotenuse of 15, so we found the answer

Note: you use the distance formula to find the length of the hypotenuse. The distance formula is
d = sqrt((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2)

A line with a slope of 10 passes through the points ( -5, - 9) and ( - 4,a). What is the value of a?
Setler79 [48]
The slope is 10
(-5,-9)
(-4,-a)
a=-19
Because the slope is 10, that means when the input increases, the output will increases 10.

Santos is a lifeguard and spots a drowning child 50 meters along the shore and 60 meters from the shore to the child. Santos run
Amanda [17]

Answer:

Santos should run approximately 36.145 meters along the shore

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The distance along the shore of the child = 50 meters

The distance from the shore of the child = 60 meters

The rate at which Santos can run = 4 m/s

The rate he can swim = 0.9 m/s

Let 'x' represent the distance he runs along the shore

We have;

The time he spends running on the shore, t₁ = x/4

The time he spends swimming, t₂ = (√(60² + (50 - x)²)/0.9

The total time, T = t₁ + t₂ = x/4 + (√(60² + (50 - x)²)/0.9

To find the maximum, we have;

dT/dx = 0 = d(x/4 + (√(60² + (50 - x)²)/0.9)/dx = 1/4 - (50 - x)/(0.9·(√(60² + (50 - x)²) = 0

1/4 - (50 - x)/(0.9·(√(60² + (50 - x)²) = 0

Simplifying using a graphing calculator gives;

\dfrac{x - 2000}{9} = \sqrt{x^2-100\cdot x+6,100}

1519·x² - 151900·x + 3505900 = 0

x = (151900 ± √((-151900)² - 4×1519×3505900))/(2 × 1519)

x ≈ 63.86 m or x ≈ 36.145 m

We note that the distance from a point x = 63.83 meters and 36.145 meters from where Santos spots the girl to the location of the girl are the same

Therefore, Santos should run approximately 36.145 meters along the shore before jumping into to the water in order to save the child

A rectangular tank with a square​ base, an open​ top, and a volume of 8 comma 7888,788 ft cubedft3 is to be constructed of sheet
Vlad [161]

Answer:

  26 ft square by 13 ft high

Step-by-step explanation:

The tank will have minimum surface area when opposite sides have the same total area as the square bottom. That is, their height is half their width. This makes the tank half a cube. Said cube would have a volume of ...

  2·(8788 ft^3) = (26 ft)^3

The square bottom of the tank is 26 ft square, and its height is 13 ft.

_____

<em>Solution using derivatives</em>

If x is the side length of the square bottom, the height is 8788/x^2 and the area is ...

  x^2 + 4x(8788/x^2) = x^2 +35152/x

The derivative of this is zero when area is minimized:

  2x -35152/x^2 = 0

  x^3 = 17576 = 26^3 . . . . . multiply by x^2/2, add 17576

  x = 26

_____

As the attached graph shows, a graphing calculator can also provide the solution.
