Let l be the length of a diagonal of a rectangle whose sides have lengths x and y, and assume that x and y vary with time. If x

increases at a constant rate of 19 ft/s and y decreases at a constant rate of 15 ft/s, how fast is the size of the diagonal changing when x

The rate of change of the size of the diagonal is; 25.2 ft/s

By Pythagoras theorem;

The length, l of a diagonal of a rectangle whose sides have lengths x and y is;

  • l² = x² + y².

In essence; the length of the diagonal is dependent on the length, x and y of the sides.

Therefore;

(dl/dt)² = (dx/dt)² + (dy/dt)²

where;

  • (dx/dt) = 19 ft/s
  • (dy/dt) = -15 ft/s

Therefore,

(dl/dt)² = 19² + (-15)²

(dl/dt)² = 361 + 225

dl/dt = √586

dl/dt = 25.2

Therefore, the size of the diagonal is changing at a rate of; 25.2 ft/s.

Answer:A. provide evidence of a causal relationship between an independent variable and the variable to be forecast

Step-by-step explanation: Casual model tends to show the cause and effect relationship between the dependent variable to be forcasted and the independent variables upon which the dependent variable is dependent.

Casual model is frequently used in the field of Statistics and Economics when making forcasts about future investments or the cause of certain events,knowing what activities to carry out in the future.

write a point-slope equation for the line that passes through the point (6,8) and is parallel to the line given by y=-5x+4
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

  y -8 = -5(x -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation for a line is generally written ...

  y -k = m(x -h)

for slope m and point (h, k).

The slope of your parallel line is the same as the slope of the reference line, -5. So your equation is ...

  y -8 = -5(x -6)
