For the amusement of the guests, some hotels have elevators on the outside of the building. One such hotel is 400 feet high. You are standing by a window 100 feet above the ground and 150 feet away from the hotel, and the elevator descends at a constant speed of 20 ft/sec, starting at time t = 0, where t is time in seconds. Let θ be the angle between the line of your horizon and your line of sight to the elevator. 4 (a) Find a formula for h(t), the elevator's height above the ground as it descends from the top of the hotel. h(t) = (b) Using your answer to part (a), express θ as a function of time t. θ(t) = Find the rate of change of θ with respect to t. dθ dt = (c) The rate of change of θ is a measure of how fast the elevator appears to you to be moving.

Answer:

  a.  h(t) = -20t +400

  b.  θ(t) = arctan(2 -2/15t); dθ/dt = -30/(1125 -120t +4t^2)

  c.  15 seconds; 100 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The initial height of the elevator is 400 ft. The rate of change of height is -20 ft/s, so the height equation can be ...

  h(t) = -20t +400

__

b. The tangent of the angle above the line of sight is "opposite"/"adjacent":

  tan(θ) = (h(t) -100)/(150) = -2/15t +2

  θ(t) = arctan(2 -2/15t) . . . . radians

The derivative of the angle function is ...

  dθ/dt = 1/(1+(2 -2/15t)^2)(-2/15)

  dθ/dt = -30/(1125 -120t +4t^2)

__

c. The value of dθ/dt will have a peak where the denominator has a minimum, at t = -(-120)/2(4)) = 15. (The quadratic vertex coordinate is t=-b/(2a).)

The elevator appears to be moving fastest at t=15 seconds.

The height at that time is ...

  h(15) = 400 -20(15) = 100

The elevator appears to be moving fastest when it is at eye level, 100 ft above the ground.

Answers

Answer:

y + 2 = (11/17)(x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Working with the x- and y-components of the given points, we see that the x component increases by 17 and the y-component decreases by 11.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise / run, or 11/17.

Start with the general point-slope form:  y - k = m(x - h) and use the coordinates of the 2nd point for h and k in this equation:

                                                                    y + 2 = (11/17)(x - 8)

                                                                     This is based on the point (-2, 8)

                                                                     and the slope 11/17.                                                                  

This result is the desired equation in point-slope form.  If we wish to reduce this, proceed as follows:

17(y + 2) = 11x - 88, or 17y + 34 = 11x - 88

This last result simplifies to 17y = 11x - 54, or y = (11/17)x -54/17 (which is in slope-intercept form).

Answer:

We will use a Pythagorean identity and alegbra to prove this.

sin^2 + cos^2 = 1, dividing by cos^2 gives

tan^2 + 1 = sec^2.

Now, breaking down the fraction into parts and simplifying gives:

(1-sin^4)/cos^4 = 1/cos^4 - sin^4/cos^4 = sec^4 - tan^4

Now use difference of squares factoring from alegbra.

= (sec^2 + tan^2)*(sec^2 - tan^2)

By rewriting our Pythagorean identity to

sec^2 - tan^2 = 1 and tan^2 = sec^2 - 1,

we can finish the problem.

= (sec^2 + tan^2) * 1 = sec^2 + tan^2

= sec^2 + (sec^2 - 1) = 2*sec^2 - 1.

using the Quadratic Formula where

a = 2, b = -6, and c = 10

x=(−b±√(b^2−4ac))/2a

x=(−(−6)±√((−6)2−4(2)(10)))2(2)

x=(6±√(36−80))/4

x=(6±√−44)/4

The discriminant b^2−4ac<0

so, there are two complex roots.

Simplify the Radical:

x=(6±2√11 i)/4

x=6/4±(2√11 i)4

Hello! My name is Galaxy and I will be helping you today!

We can solve this problem in two steps, one is Comprehending and another is Solving. I'll start off with Comprehending.

Comprehending

We can start off by looking at the problem, it wants us to find the percentage increase from 36 to 48. We can then find difference between 48 and 36; that would be 12.

Now that we know the increase from 36 to 48 is 12. We need to find how much percent 12 is of 36.

Now that we know what we have to do, we can start solving.

Solving

We can solve the problem by setting up and equation, but we can also just use our logic in finding it out.

Since we know that we need to find how much 12 is of 36, we can just solve for that and we will get our answer.

We can do that with one step.

[tex]\frac{12}{36}=0.33[/tex]

Since it is a percent, we can multiply 0.33 by 100 and we get our answer of 33%

Do comment if you have any query.

Answer:

Below!

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's try the 'equal' sign for this equation.

8 + 7 - 2² = 3² + 2

Remember, when it comes to simplifying, exponents come first. This means that we need to simplify the exponents first.

=> 8 + 7 - (2 x 2) = 9 + 2=> 15 - 4 = 9 + 2=> 11 = 11

Since the LHS and the RHS are equal, the 'equal' sign will fit into the equation. Hence, this is proven as true. Let's try the 'not equal' sign.

=> 8 + 7 - 2² ≠ 3² + 2=> 15 - 4 ≠ 9 + 2=> 11 ≠ 11

Now, this is a definite false. The 'not equal' sign is used when two values are not equal to each other, however, in this situation, 11 does equal 11. In between them is a 'not equal' sign. Hence, this is proven false.

We can conclude that the sign you are looking for is an 'equal' sign.

I need to find y

Answers

180 = x + y + 90

x = 180 - 115
x = 65

180 = 65 + 90 + y
180 - 65 - 90 = y
25 = y

Answer:

y° = 25°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the diagram of a triangle, where it shows an exterior angle with a measure of ∠115°, and that an angle bisector bisects the triangle into two right triangles.  

According to the Exterior Angle Theorem, the measure of the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of two non-adjacent interior angles.  In other words, the given exterior angle, m∠115° is equal to m∠y° + m∠90°.

Solve for y:

Hence, we could simply solve for the value of y algebraically:

m∠y° + m∠90° = m∠115°

y° + 90° = 115°

Subtract 90° from both sides:

y° + 90° - 90° = 115° - 90°

y° = 25°

Double-check:

Verify whether we have the correct value for y by solving for x:

Since the exterior angle, ∠115°, and ∠x° are supplements, then it means that:

m∠115° + m∠x° = 180°

115° + x° = 180°

Subtract 115° from both sides:

115°- 115° + x° = 180° - 115°

x = 65°

According to the Triangle Sum Theorem, the sum of the measures of the interior angles of a triangle is 180°.

Hence:

m∠x° + m∠y° + m∠90° = 180°

65° + 25° + 90° = 180°

180° = 180° (True statement).

Therefore, the correct answer is: y = 25°. This measure represents either one of the ∠y.
