18. The current in the Red Cedar River is 6 mph. A canoe can travel 7 miles downstream in the same time that it takes to travel 3 miles upstream when paddled at the same rate. Set up (but do not solve) a rational equation that could be used to find the rate the canoe is paddled, using x as this rate

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

7/(6 + x) = 3/(6 - x)

Step-by-step explanation:

The current of the Red Cedar River (the speed with which the river is flowing), v = 6 mph

The time it takes the canoe to travel 7 miles downstream = The time it takes the canoe to paddle 3 miles upstream

Let x represent the rate of the canoe, we have;

7/(v + x) = 3/(v - x)

Substituting v = 6 mph, we get the following rational equation, from which the rate of the canoe, x, can be found;

7/(6 + x) = 3/(6 - x).

Answers

Answer:

10 square meters will have a standard deviation of 1.897.

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard deviation for n instances of a variable:

If the standard deviation for one instance of a variable is [tex]\sigma[/tex], for n instances of the variable, the standard deviation will be of [tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n}[/tex]

The standard deviation of the number of flaws per square yard is 0.6

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.6[/tex]

For the 10 square yards will a standard deviation of

[tex]n = 10[/tex], so:

[tex]s = \sigma\sqrt{n} = 0.6\sqrt{10} = 1.897[/tex]

Answer:

  y = 27·x²   or   (a, n) = (27, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the log (base 3) of the given equation, we have ...

  [tex]\log_3(y)=n\cdot\log_3(x)+\log_3(a)[/tex]

Using the points given on the graph, we have 2 equations in n and 'a'.

  a = 3³ = 27

is AC greater than, less than, or equal to BC? explain your reasoning

Answers

Answer:

AC is greater than BC

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that the angle of a straight line is 180°, so angle B as a whole is equal to 180 degrees. Therefore, angle YBC + angle ABC = 180 degrees. As angle YBC is a right angle, signified by the small square on the angle, it is 90 degrees. Therefore,

90 degrees + angle ABC = 180 degrees

subtract 90 degrees from both sides to isolate angle ABC

angle ABC = 90 degrees

Therefore, as angle ABC is equal to 90 degrees, and a right angle is 90 degrees, triangle ABC has a right angle, making it a right triangle.

In a right triangle, using the Pythagorean Theorem, the square of the side opposite the right angle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other side. Since side AC is opposite the right angle, we can say that

AC² = AB² + BC²

As the length of a side has to be greater than 0, we can say that

AC² = AB² + BC²

AB² > 0

AC² > BC²

square root both sides

AC > BC

Therefore, AC is greater than BC

A ball is thrown upward from the balcony of a building and falls to the ground. The height of the ball h meters, above the ground after t seconds is modelled by the function h(t) = -5t^2 + 15t + 45 what is the maximum height?

Answers

Answer:

56.25metres

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the height of the ball h meters, above the ground after t seconds modeled by the function h(t) = -5t^2 + 15t + 45, at maximum height, the velocity is zero, hence;

dh/dt = 0

Since dh/dt = -10t + 15

-10t+ 15 = 0

-10t = -15

t = 15/10

t = 3/2

t = 1.5secs

Substitute t = 1.5 into the expression given

h(1.5) =  -5(1.5)^2 + 15(1.5) + 45

h(1.5) = -5(2.25)+22.5+45

h(1.5) = -11.25+67.5

h(1.5) = 56.25

Hence the maximum height is 56.25metres

Answers

Answer:

C; 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, when two lines are perpendicular, the product of their slopes equal -1

in that case, we have it that;

m1 * m2 = -1

where m1 is the slope of the first line and m2 is the slope of the second line

Hence,

m2* -1/4 = -1

-m2/4 = -1

-m2 = -4

m2 = 4

To find: Shape of Cross Section when a plane intersect the prism diagonally

A plane intersect the Rectangular prism .i.e, Cuboid diagonally which means plane passes from top edge of cuboid to edge on bottom on opposite side.

In this way we get a Rectangular shaped Cross section which includes edges of cuboid and diagonals of the side faces.

Therefore, Rectangle shaped cross section is formed by intersection of plane and prism.

2. Write the slope-intercept form of the equation for each graph described. Line passing through (-5, 12) and parallel to the line whose equation is y = 2x + 5. Y =​

Answers

Answer:   y = 2x+22

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

Explanation:

The equation y = 2x+5 is in the form y = mx+b

m = 2 = slope

b = 5 = y intercept

Parallel lines have equal slopes, but different y intercepts. So the answer will be in the form y = 2x+c, where b and c are different numbers. Since b = 5, this means c must be some other number. If c = 5, then we'd have the exact same line.

Let's plug in (x,y) = (-5,12), along with the slope m = 2, and solve for c

y = mx+c

12 = 2(-5)+c

12 = -10+c

12+10 = c

22 = c

c = 22

Since m = 2 and c = 22, we go from y = mx+c to y = 2x+22

The equation of the parallel line is y = 2x+22

The graph is below.

Suppose Ax = b always has at least one solution no matter what b is. Why AT y = 0 has only the trivial solution y = 0?

Answers

Answer:

For the first equation we have:

A*x = b

solving for x, we get:

x = b/A

If it always has a solution, then we can not have A = 0, because that causes an undefined operation.

so for example, if we have A = 1 and b = 2

x = b/A = 2/1

For the other case,

A*y = 0

dividing both sides by A

y = 0/A = 0

y = 0

Here we have only one possible solution, the trivial one, y = 0.

And the dependence on A disappears (because the quotient between zero and a number different than zero is always zero)
