Answer:

T(t) = 3sin((t-5)π/30)

Step-by-step explanation:

5 minutes after Thomas ties it on, the torque is zero and increasing. So, the sine function is shifted right 5 minutes. The maximum value is 3, so that is the multiplier of the sine function. The period is 60 minutes, so the coefficient of t is (2π/60) = π/30. The function you want is ...

T(t) = 3sin((t-5)π/30)

Which table describes the behavior of the graph of f(x) = 2x³ - 26x - 24?

Anna71 [15]

After you have plotted the graph of the polynomial, the x-intercepts of the given polynomial will be:
(-3,0),(-1,0) and (4,0)
therefore the interval will be:
(-∞,-3)-below, (-3,-1)-above,(-1,4)-below,(4,∞)-above
The answer is ]

At higher altitudes, water boils at lower temperatures. This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear. At an al

Mashutka [201]

Let's assume

boiling point is y

altitude is x

we are given

This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear

At an altitude of 1000 feet, water boils at 210°F

so, first point is (1000,210)

so, x1=1000 , y1=210

At an altitude of 3000 feet, water boils at 206°F

so, second point is (3000,206)

so, x2=3000,y2=206

now, we can find slope

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

now, we can plug values

$m=\frac{206-210}{3000-1000}$

$m=-\frac{1}{500}$

now, we can use point slope form of line

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

so, we can plug it

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)$

so, point slope form of line is

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)$

now, we can plug x=8000

and then we can solve for y

$y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(8000-1000)$

$y=196$

So,

the boiling point of water at an altitude of 8000 feet is 196°F..........Answer

Find the functions y-intercept algebraically

grigory [225]

To find the y intercept using the equation of the line, plug in 0 for the x variable and solve for y. If the equation is written in the slope-intercept form, plug in the slope and the x and y coordinates for a point on the line to solve y. Hope this helped! :)

Two angles of a triangle measure 59° and 63°. If the longest side measures 28 centimeters, find the length of the shortest side.

Dmitrij [34]

Angles in a triangle ALWAYS equal 180 degrees, so 180-59-63= final angle (58 degrees) Then just use (Tan,Cos,Sin) with the angles to find the lengths, i can’t answer it as i don’t know what the triangle looks like
