Answer:

  • 112 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • AB = 192 cm
  • AC : CB = 1 : 3
  • CD = BC/12
  • The distance between midpoints of AD and CB = x

<u>Find the length of AC and CB:</u>

  • AC + CB = AB
  • AC + 3AC = 192
  • 4AC = 192
  • AC = 192/4
  • AC = 48 cm

<u>Find CB:</u>

  • CB = 3AC = 3*48 = 144 cm

<u>Find the length of CD:</u>

  • CD = BC/12 = 144/12 = 12 cm

<u>Find the length of AD:</u>

  • AD = AC - CD = 48 - 12 = 36 cm

<u>Find the midpoint of AD:</u>

  • m(AD) = 36/2 = 18 cm

<u>Find the midpoint of CB:</u>

  • m(CB) = AC + 1/2CB = 48 + 144/2 = 48 + 82 = 130 cm

<u>Find the distance between the midpoints:</u>

  • x = 130 - 18 = 112 cm

When a cold drink is taken from a refrigerator, its temperature is 5°C. After 25 minutes in a 20°C room its temperature has incr
Andrews [41]

Answer:

  (a)  13.85 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature difference is a decaying exponential function of time. Here, it decreases from an initial difference of 15 °C to 10 °C after 25 minutes. So, that temperature difference can be modeled as ...

  ΔT = 15(10/15)^(t/25)

We want to find the value of this at t=55. It is ...

  ΔT = 15(2/3)^(55/25) ≈ 6.15

This is the amount the temperature of the drink is below room temperature.

  drink temperature = (20 - 6.15) °C = 13.85 °C

The temperature of the drink after 55 minutes is about 13.85 °C.
