A police car is located 40 feet on a small straight road perpendicular to main highway. A red car is driving along a highway in the direction of an intersection with that small road and is 180 feet away from the intersection. The police radar reads that the distance between the police car and the red car (this distance is straight between them - not on either road) is decreasing at a rate of 100 feet per second. How fast is the red car actually traveling along the road

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the red car is traveling at 102.44 ft/s along the road

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Let consider p be how far the car is up the road and  q be how far the police is off the road.

Also, suppose that r is the distance between the police and the car.

Then, we can have a right triangle in which  we can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the r (distance between the cop and the car)

NOW,

p² + q² = r²

r² = 40² + 180²

r² = 1600 + 32400

r² = 34000

r = [tex]\sqrt{34000}[/tex]

r = 184.39

If we consider q'  to be how fast the car is traveling down the road.

And, p' be how fast the police is traveling toward the road.

r' be how fast the distance between the police and the car is changing.

then , the derivative of our equation, p² + q² = r² with respect to time can now be:

2p(p') +2q(q') = 2r(r')

p(p') +q(q') = r(r')

By replacing our values; we have:

40(0) +180(y') = [tex]\sqrt{34000} \times 100[/tex]    (given that the police is not moving p' =0)

180(y') = [tex]\sqrt{34000} \times 100[/tex]

[tex](y') = \dfrac{\sqrt{34000} \times 100}{180}[/tex]

[tex](y') = \dfrac{184.39 \times 100}{180}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{(y') = 102.44 \ ft/s}[/tex]

the red car is traveling at 102.44 ft/s along the road

How to determine the distance between the coordinates for each points?

In Mathematics and Geometry, the distance between two (2) end points that are on a coordinate plane can be calculated by using the following mathematical equation:

Distance = √[(x₂ - x₁)² + (y₂ - y₁)²]

Where:

x and y represent the data points (coordinates) on a cartesian coordinate.

By substituting the given end points (1, 5) and (9, 0) into the distance formula, we have the following;

Distance = √[(9 - 1)² + (0 - 5)²]

Distance = √[(8)² + (-5)²]

Distance = √[64 + 25]

Distance = √89 units.

Answers

Answer:

When two inscribed angles in one circle both equal 75°, the two angles must intercept the same arc that measures 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the Inscribed Angles Theorem, the measure of an intercepted arc is twice the measure of the inscribed angle that intercepts it in a circle.

Consequently, the theorem also Holds that the measure of two inscribed angles intercepting the same arc, are congruent. In other words, both angles together are the same, and their sum would give you the measure of the arc they both intercept.

In the diagram shown in the attachment below, we have 2 inscribed angles, angle A and B. They both intercept the same arc of 75°.

Therefore, we can conclude that the measure of both angles equal 75°, which is the same as the measure of the arc they intercept.

Angle A = Angle B

A clothing business finds there is a linear relationship between the number of shirts, n, it can sell and the price, p, it can charge per shirt. In particular, historical data shows that 1,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $30, while 3,000 shirts can be sold at a price of $5. Find a linear equation in the form p(n)

Answers

Answer:

p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p= price

n = number of shirts

m = slope of the line (note, the more shirts, the lower the price, so we know it's going to be negative)

b = y intercept

There are two points which are (1000, $30) and (3000, $5)

Our slope m = (p1-p2)/(n1-n2)

Filling in from our points m = (30-5)/(1000-3000)

m = 25/-2000

m = -0.0125

Since we have determined our slope, we can now find our equation

p-p1=m(n-n1)

p-30=(-0.0125)(n-1000)

p-30= (-0.0125n) + 12.5

p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5

Then, we can double check with the other point there:

p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5

5? (-0.0125x 3000) + 42.5

5= 5

Therefore,linear equation in the form p(n) is

p=(-0.0125n) + 42.5

How to solve this pythagoras theorem

Answers

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is the longest side thus is (4x + 1)

The legs are 2x and (4x - 1)

Using Pythagoras' theorem, then

(4x + 1)² = (2x)² + (4x - 1)² ← expanding factors

16x² + 8x + 1 = 4x²  + 16x² - 8x + 1 , that is

16x² + 8x + 1 = 20x² - 8x + 1 ( subtract 20x² - 8x + 1 from both sides )

- 4x² + 16x = 0 ( multiply through by - 1 )

4x² - 16x = 0 ← factor out 4x from each term

4x(x - 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for x

4x = 0 ⇒ x = 0

x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4

Now x > 0, thus x = 4

2x = 2(4) = 8

4x - 1 = 4(4) - 1 = 16 - 1 = 15

4x + 1 = 4(4) + 1 = 16 + 1 = 17

Thus

perimeter = 8 + 15 + 17 = 40 cm

A sample of 500 g of radioactive​ lead-210 decays to​ polonium-210 according to the function A(t)=500e^-0.032t ​, where t is time in years. Find the amount of radioactive lead remaining after ​(a) ​3yr, ​(b) 8​yr, ​(c) 10 yr. ​(d) Find the​ half-life.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the equation A(t) = 400e-.032t

 

a) replace t with 4 so A(4) = 400e((-.032)(4))

 

The hardest part about this is making sure to use order of operations. Be certain it works like this:

 

A(4) = 400e-.128

A(4) = 400(.8799)

A(4) = 351.9 grams

 

b) A(8) = 400e((-.032)(8)) = 309.7 grams

 

c) A(20) = 400e((-.032)(20)) = 210.9 grams

 

Note here that even after 20 years, not quite half of the original amount is gone. So, we can anticipate that in finding the half life, that our answer should be slightly greater than 20 years.

 

d) 200 = 400e(-.032t)

 

Divide both sides of the equation by 400.

 

.5 = e(-.032t)

 

Change this to logarithmic form.

 

Ln .5 = -.032t

-.6931≈ -.032t

t ≈ 21.7 years

 

Hope this helps!

The amount of radioactive lead,

(a).After 3 years is 454.23 grams

(b).After 8 years is 387.07 grams

(c).After 10 years is 363.07 grams.

(d). half life is 21.66 years.

The decay of radioactive lead is given by function,

                          [tex]A(t)=500e^{-0.032t}[/tex]

The amount of radioactive lead After 3 years is,

The amount of radioactive lead After 8 years is,

            [tex]e^{-0.032t}=0.5\\\\-0.032t=ln(0.5)\\\\-0.032t=-0.693\\\\t=0.693/0.032=21.66 years[/tex]

The ratio of the units digit to the tens digit of a two-digit number is one-half.The tens digit is 2 more than the units digit. Find the number.

Answers

Answer:

Number : 42

Step-by-step explanation:

This number will be a two - digit number, and hence we can say that it is yz. The ratio of the units digit to the tens digit is given by 1 / 2, so z / y = 1 / 2.

In addition the tens digit is 2 more than the units digit, so y = z + 2. We therefore have the following system of equations,

y = z + 2,

z / y = 1 / 2

Substituting the first equation into the second we receive z / z + 2 = 1 / 2. Using this we can solve for z.

z / z + 2 = 1 / 2 ( Cross - Multiply )

z + 2 = 2z, z = 2

And knowing z we can solve for y. y = z + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4. Therefore our number is 42.

For f(-3), the input for the function f(x) is -3.

Replace the x variable with -3.

f(-3) = 4(-3) + 15

Evaluate.

f(-3) = -12 + 15

f(-3) = 3

The output for f(-3) is 3.

Answer: f(-3) = 3

Step-by-step explanation: Notice that f is a function of x.

So we want to find f(-3).

We find f(-3) by plugging -3 in for x,

everywhere that x appears in the function.

So we have 4(-3) + 15.

4(-3) is -12 so we have -12 + 15 which is 3.

So f(-3) is 3.
