Answer: 4*sqrt(66)
This is the same as saying
===========================================================
Explanation:
x = length of segment BD
Because BD is an altitude of triangle ABC, this means the triangle is split into two smaller right triangles which are similar to the original. All three right triangles are similar to one another.
What this leads to is the proportion
CD/BD = BD/AD
Apply substitution and solve for x.
24/x = x/44
24*44 = x*x .... cross multiply
1056 = x^2
x = sqrt(1056)
x = sqrt(16*66)
x = sqrt(16)*sqrt(66)
x = 4*sqrt(66)
Notice how I factored 1056 in such a way that I pulled out the largest perfect square factor (16). Then I used the rule to break up the root.
Answer:
At t=1, Rate of Change=-36.86
At t=10 hours, Rate of Change =-0.0088
Step-by-step explanation:
The function which describes the number of facts of a certain type which are remembered after t hours is given as:
To determine the Rate of Change at the given time, we first look for the derivative of f(t).
Applying quotient rule:
At t=1
=-36.86
At t=10 hours
=-0.0088
