Answer:

c). y + x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The locus is a line perpendicular to the line connecting the 2 points and passing through the centre of the line.

The mid-point of the line connecting the given points is:

(a + b + a - b)/2 , (a - b + a + b) / 2

= (a, a)

It's slope = (a + b)- (a - b) / (a - b)- (a + b)

= 2b/ -2b

= -1

So the slope of the line we want is -1/(-1) = 1.

Using the point-slope form of a line:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - a = 1(x - a)

y - a = x - a

x + y = 0

Answer:

h = 3\sqrt{3}

c = 4\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️Finding h using trigonometric ratio:

Reference angle = 60°

Opposite = h

Adjacent = 3

Thus:

tan(60) = \frac{h}{3}

\sqrt{3} = \frac{h}{3} (tan 60 = √3)

Multiply both sides by 3

3\sqrt{3} = h

h = 3\sqrt{3}

✔️Finding c using trigonometric ratio:

Reference angle = 45°

Hypotenuse = 8

Adjacent = c

Thus:

cos(45) = \frac{c}{8}

\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} = \frac{c}{8} (cos 45 = √2/2)

Multiply both sides by 8

\frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \times 8 = c

\sqrt{2} \times 4 = c

c = 4\sqrt{2}

A city's population increases by 5% every year. If its population today is 300,000, write a function that models the population
ratelena [41]

Answer:

f(x) = 300,000(1.05)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the exponential growth equation:

f(x) = a(1 + r)^x

Plug in 300,000 as a, since it is the original population:

f(x) = 300,000(1 + r)^x

The city's population is growing at 5% each year, so plug in 0.05 as r:

f(x) = 300,000(1 + 0.05)^x

f(x) = 300,000(1.05)^x

So, the function for the population growth is f(x) = 300,000(1.05)^x
