A ladder 20 feet long is leaning against the wall of a house. The base of the ladder is pulled away from the wall at a rate of 2 feet per second. Find the rate at which the angle between the ladder and the wall of the house is changing when the base of the ladder is 16 feet from the wall.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.17 °/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the ladder is leaning against the wall and has a length, L and is at a distance, D from the wall. If θ is the angle between the ladder and the wall, then sinθ = D/L.

We differentiate the above expression with respect to time to have

dsinθ/dt = d(D/L)/dt

cosθdθ/dt = (1/L)dD/dt

dθ/dt = (1/Lcosθ)dD/dt where dD/dt = rate at which the ladder is being pulled away from the wall = 2 ft/s and dθ/dt = rate at which angle between wall and ladder is increasing.

We now find dθ/dt when D = 16 ft, dD/dt = + 2 ft/s, and L = 20 ft

We know from trigonometric ratios, sin²θ + cos²θ = 1. So, cosθ = √(1 - sin²θ) = √[1 - (D/L)²]

dθ/dt = (1/Lcosθ)dD/dt

dθ/dt = (1/L√[1 - (D/L)²])dD/dt

dθ/dt = (1/√[L² - D²])dD/dt

Substituting the values of the variables, we have

dθ/dt = (1/√[20² - 16²]) 2 ft/s

dθ/dt = (1/√[400 - 256]) 2 ft/s

dθ/dt = (1/√144) 2 ft/s

dθ/dt = (1/12) 2 ft/s

dθ/dt = 1/6 °/s

dθ/dt = 0.17 °/s

Points A and B are 200 mi apart.

Answers

okay and what about it?

Answer:

17*200/17+83

Step-by-step explanation:

Points A and B are 200 mi apart. A cyclist started from point A and a motorcyclist started from point B, moving towards each other. The speed of the cyclist was 17 mph, the speed of motorcyclist was 83 mph. At what distance from point A will they meet?

The distance under the question is 17*200/17+83= 17*2 = 34 miles.

17+83 = 100 mph in the denominator is the relative speed of the participants,  the rate of decreasing the distance between them.

200/17+83=200/100= 2 hours is the time before they meet.

therefore  17*200/17+83 is the time before they meet

Then, it says the difference of that product and -1/2. Now, you can put the product part in, which is 3 ⋅ x, and subtract that with -1/2 to get (3 ⋅ x) - (-1/2)

one room length 12.8 and breadth equals to 850 CM inside that room there is a bad length is 300 cm and breadth is 400 cm find the remaining surface area of the room and the answer will be in cm​

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Area = 968000cm^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

To be able to answer this question properly. I'll assume the length of the room is in meters.

So for the room, we have:

[tex]Length = 12.8m[/tex]

[tex]Breadth = 850cm[/tex]

For the bed, we have:

[tex]Length = 300cm[/tex]

[tex]Breadth = 400cm[/tex]

First, we calculate the surface area of the room.

[tex]A_1 = 12.8m * 850cm[/tex]

Convert all units to cm

[tex]A_1= 12.8*100cm * 850cm[/tex]

[tex]A_1= 1 088 000 cm^2[/tex]

Next, we calculate the area of the bed

[tex]A_2 = 300cm * 400cm[/tex]

[tex]A_2 = 120000cm^2[/tex]

The area of the space left  is the difference between A1 and A2

[tex]Area = A_1 - A_2[/tex]

[tex]Area = 1088000cm^2 - 120000cm^2[/tex]

[tex]Area = 968000cm^2[/tex]

A tire manufacturer believes that the life of its tires follow a normal distribution with a mean of 46,000 miles and a standard deviation of 4,000 miles. What mileage can he guarantee each tire to last so that 99% of the tires last longer than the guaranteed lifetime?

Answers

Answer:

Guarantee of Tyre = 36,680 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mean = 46,000 miles

Standard deviation = 4,000 miles

Computation:

Assume;

x = guaranteed lifetime

P(X > x) = 99%

So,

P(X > x) = 0.99

So,

P(Z > z) = 0.99

So,

1 - P(Z > z )  = P(Z < z)

P(Z < z) = 0.01

So, in z table value of z = -2.33

x = μ + [z x σ]

x = 46,000 + [-2.33 x 4000]

x = 36,680

Guarantee of Tyre = 36,680 miles

What is the length of segment DA?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of this line segment is the distance between its endpoints A and B. So, a line segment is a piece or part of a line having two endpoints. Unlike a line, a line segment has a definite length.

Answer: DA = 6

====================================================

Explanation:

The triangles are similar, allowing us to make the proportion below

DB/DA = DA/DC

Plug in the given values. Cross multiply and solve for x

DB/DA = DA/DC

9/DA = DA/4

9*4 = (DA)*(DA)

36 = (DA)^2

(DA)^2 = 36

DA = sqrt(36)

DA = 6

The length of DA is exactly the geometric mean of the lengths BD and DC

geometric mean of x and y = sqrt(x*y)
