The slope of the line is 2
Move all the logarithms on the left hand side, and all the constants on the other:
Use the rule of logarithms
To rewrite the equation as
Evaluate 2 to the power of each side:
Multiply both sides by 2x:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
time to cross will be the distance divided by the velocity in that direction.
a) t = d/v = 45/2.75 = 16.363636... 16.4 s
In the same time that the otter is swimming cross stream, the stream is also moving perpendicularly at its own pace.
b) d = vt = 2.5(16.36) = 40.9090... 40.9 m
As velocity is a vector, An observer on the bank would see the velocity as the vector addition of the cross stream and down stream velocities
c) v = √(2.75² + 2.5²) = 3.716517... 3.72 m/s magnitude
θ = arctan2.5/2.75 = 42.2736... 42.3° downstream of a line straight across
