An ant crept to a hole, which was 210 cm away.
It crept 40 cm per minute, but the wind pushed
it back 5 cm every minute. How many minutes
will it take the ant to reach the hole?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The ant can crawl 40 cm per minute but is pushed back 5 cm every minute aswell. In total the ant will crawl 35 cm per minute (40 - 5 = 35).

In order to find how long it will take for the ant to reach the hole we divide 210 by 35 (210/35) to get the answer of 6, therefore it takes the ant 6 minutes to reach the hole.

A box is formed by cutting squares from the four corners of a sheet of paper and folding up the sides.
Suppose the paper is 7"-wide by 9"-long.
a. Estimate the maximum volume for this box?
b. What cutout length produces the maximum volume?

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question it is necessary to find the volume of the box as a function of "x", and apply the concepts of a maximum of a function.

The solution is:

a) V (max) = 36.6 in³

b) x = 1.3 in

The volume of a cube is:

V(c) = w×L×h  ( in³)

In this case, cutting the length  "x" from each side, means:

wide of the box    ( w - 2×x )   equal to  ( 7 - 2×x )

Length of the box ( L - 2×x )   equal to  ( 9 - 2×x )

The height  is  x

Then the volume of the box,  as a function of x is:

V(x) = ( 7 - 2×x ) × ( 9 -2×x ) × x

V(x) = ( 63 - 14×x - 18×x + 4×x²)×x

V(x) = 4×x³ - 32×x² + 63×x

Tacking derivatives,  on both sides of the equation

V´(x) = 12×x² - 64 ×x + 63

If   V´(x) = 0      then      12×x² - 64 ×x + 63 = 0

This expression is a second-degree equation, solving for x

x₁,₂ = [ 64 ± √ (64)² - 4×12*63

x₁ =  ( 64 + 32.74 )/ 24

x₁ = 4.03     this value  will bring us an unfeasible solution,  since it is not possible to cut 2×4 in from a piece of paper of 7 in ( therefore we dismiss that value)

x₂ = ( 64 - 32.74)/24

x₂ = 1.30 in

The  maximum volume of the box is:

V(max) = ( 7 - 2.60) × ( 9 - 2.60)×1.3

V(max) = 4.4 × 6.4 × 1.3

V(max) = 36.60 in³

To chek for maximum value of V when x = 1.3

we find the second derivative of V  V´´,  and substitute the value of x = 1.3,    if the relation is smaller than 0,  we have a maximum value of V

V´´(x) = 24×x - 64 for x = 1.3

V´´(x) = 24× 1.3 - 64            ⇒   V´´(x) < 0

Then the value  x = 1.3 will bring maximum value for V

The center of an ice rink is located at (0, 0) on a coordinate system measured in meters. Susan is skating along a path that can be modeled by the equation y = 6x – x2 – 5. Luke starts at (10, –21) and skates along a path that can be modeled by a quadratic function with a vertex at (8, –9). If the rink is a circle with a radius of 35 meters, which statement best interprets the solution(s) of a system of equations modeling the paths of the skaters?


A. The skaters’ paths intersect once, but that point is outside the rink.

B. The skaters’ paths intersect once, and that point is inside the rink.

C. The skaters’ paths intersect twice, but only one of those points is inside the rink.

D. The skaters’ paths intersect twice, and both points are inside the rink.

Answers

Answer:

Option C:The skaters path intersect twice, but only one of those points is inside the rink.

Step-by-step explanation:

Coordinates of center of ice rink: (0,0) Radius of ice rink circle = 35 m

We know that the equation of a circle with center coordinates (a,b) and radius of (r) is given as; (x - a)² + (y - b)² = r²

Thus, the total area on which the skaters are skating will be given by the equation;

x² + y² = 35²

Now, we are told the path along which Susan is skating is modeled by the equation: y = 6x - x² - 5

While Luke starts at (10, –21) and skates along a path that can be modeled by a quadratic function with a vertex at (8, –9)

From equation of a parabola, the path along which like is skating can be modeled by;

(x - 8)² = 4a(y + 9)

To find a, we will substitute the coordinate started at to get;

(10 - 8)² = 4a(-21 + 9)

4 = 4a × -12

Divide both sides by 4 to get;

a = -1/12

Thus;

(x - 8)² = 4(-1/12)(y + 9)

(x - 8)² = (-1/3)(y + 9)

This gives: 3(x - 8)² = -(y + 9)

I've drawn the graph on demos and attached it.

From the graph we can see that the skaters points intersect twice but one is inside the rink circle while the other is outside the rink circle. The point at which they intersect outside the rink was slightly cropped out because of size. But it is clearly seen that they are both approaching point of intersection.

Thus, correct answer is Option C.

In a 30-60-90 triangle, the length of the hypotenuse is 17. Find the length of the side opposite the 30 degree angle.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that on a 30 60 90 trianlge the length of the side opposite the 30 degree angle is half of the length of hypotenuse.So in this problem

the length of the side opposite the 30 angle is 17/2

talking about exercise on the photo the answer is

8√3 because it is given that the length of the side opposite the 30 anlge is 8 so hypotenuse is 16 we mentioned why before.

Now lets use pythagorean theorem

x^2+y^2=z^2

z is hypotenuse

8^2+y^2=16^2

64+y^2=256

y^2=256-64

y^2=192

y=8√3

You can use LL, HL and SAS theorems to prove that triangles are congruent.

The right triangle leg leg congruence Theorem (LL) is a theorem for right triangles that says if the two corresponding shorter legs of two right triangles are congruent, then the two triangles are congruent.

The hypotenuse leg Theorem (HL) states that any two right triangles that have a congruent hypotenuse and a corresponding, congruent leg are congruent triangles.

The side angle side Postulate (SAS) states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.
