The top of ladder is moving down the wall at the rate of 1.375 ft/sec .

In the given question we have to find how fast is the top of the ladder moving down the wall.

Let the distance between floor and top point of ladder = x

the distance between wall and bottom point of ladder = y

Using Pythagorean law,

x^2+y^2 = (12)^2

x^2+y^2 = 144.....................(1)

Differentiating with respect to t:

d/dt (x^2+y^2) = d/dt (144)

2xdx/dt+2ydy/dt = 0

Given that

dy/dt = 3

So 2xdx/dt+2y*3 = 0

2xdx/dt+6y= 0

dx/dt = - 3y/x

Using (1):

dx/dt = -3y/√144-y^2  

When y = 5:

dx/dt = -3(5)/√144-(5)^2

dx/dt = -15/√144-25

dx/dt = -15/√119

dx/dt = -15/10.91

dx/dt = -1.375

So the top of ladder is moving down the wall at the rate of 1.375 ft/sec .

Answer:

cosβ = -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since cos2β = 3/4 and β is in quadrant III, the value of cosβ must be negative. We can find the exact value of cosβ by using the identity cos2β = 2cos^2β - 1. Substituting 3/4 for cos2β and solving for cosβ, we get:

3/4 = 2cos^2β - 1

cos^2β = 1/4

cosβ = 1/2 or -1/2

Since cosβ is negative in quadrant III, the value of cosβ is -1/2. Thus, the answer is cosβ = -1/2.

The lengths of the legs of a right triangle 4.884 units and 14.18 units

In this question, we have been given a right triangle in which one acute angle measures 19° and the hypotenuse is 15 units long.

We need to find the lengths of the legs of a right triangle.

Consider a right triangle ABC with ∠B = 90° and ∠C = 19°

Consider sine of angle C

sin(C) = AB/AC

sin(19°) = AB / 15

AB = 0.3256 * 15

AB = 4.884

Using Pythagoras theorem,

AC² = AB² + BC²

15² = 4.884² + BC²

BC = √(225 - 23.85)

BC = 14.18 units

Therefore, the lengths of the legs of a right triangle:

AB = 4.884 units

BC = 14.18 units

a. 4(x - 5)^2

= 4 * (x - 5)^2

= 4 * ((x - 5) * (x - 5))

= 4x^2 - 40x + 100

b. 3(x + 1) (2x - 9)

= (3(x + 1)) (2x + −9)

= (3(x + 1))(2x) + (3(x + 1))(−9)

= 6x^2 + 6x − 27x − 27

= 6x^2 − 21x − 27

c. -2(4x + 2)^2

= -2 * (4x + 2)^2

= −2 * ((4x + 2) * (4x + 2))

= 32x^2 − 32x − 8

or d. -2(4x + 2)^2 - 5 (with subtracting 5)

= −32x^2 + −32x + −8 + −5

= (−32x^2) + (−32x) + (−8 + −5)

= −32x^2 + −32x + −13

d. -3(5x - 2)^2 + 5 (with negative)

= 75x^2 + −60x + 12 + 5

= 75x^2 + −60x + 12 + 5

= (75x^2) + (−60x) + (12 + 5)

= 75x^2 + −60x + 17

or d. 3(5x - 2^2 + 5 (without negative)

= (3)(5x + −4 + 5)

= (3)(5x) + (3)(−4) + (3)(5)

= 15x − 12 + 15

The unit rate in cost per roll is $0.83 per roll.

what is unit rate? how to calculate unit rate of cost?

Unit rate is a type of ratio that compares the quantity of two different types of units. It is calculated by dividing the cost of a given quantity of an item by the number of units in that quantity. For example, if a bag of apples costs $4 and there are 5 apples in the bag, the unit rate of cost for the apples is $0.80 per apple ($4/5= $0.80). Another example would be if a carton of eggs costs $2.50 and there are 10 eggs in the carton, the unit rate of cost for the eggs would be $0.25 per egg ($2.50/10 = $0.25). Unit rate is a useful tool for understanding the cost of items, especially when comparing items of different sizes or quantities. It can also be used to calculate the cost of a certain number of items, as long as the unit rate is known.

The decimal point is to be placed three places to the left.

What are decimal numbers?

When we divide a whole number into smaller parts, we get decimals. Then, there are two parts to a decimal number: a whole number part and a fractional part. The whole component of a decimal number has the same decimal place value system as the complete number. After the decimal point, however, when we proceed to the right, we obtain the fractional portion of the decimal number.

Given that, in the question, the product of a decimal number between 350 and 400 and 0.48 results in the numbers 182136. As 0.48 is just 48/100, let's take a decimal number between 350 and 400.

If the number is 370.1, for example, we can write it as 3701/10 because it has one decimal point.

Our denominator will be 1000, because both the denominators are 100 and 10, which is equivalent three decimal places to the left of the result when we multiply 48/100 by 3701/10.

The result provided to us should therefore be written as 182.136, with the decimal point moved three spaces to the left.
