Answer:

3293 ft to nearest tenth = side

Step-by-step explanation:

To find altitude this is the same in trigonometry as finding the side and we use calculation below in finding the hypotenuse which is same term as side for the angle of depression just to double check that height (altitude is less than slope in calculation).

sin (32) = 0.9271838546

3600/0.9271838546 = 3882.725074

= 3883 ft to nearest tenth. = slope

Then cos (32)x3882.725074 = 3292.737608

= 3293 ft to nearest tenth = side

The volume of a prism is the product of its height and area of its base, V = Bh. A rectangular prism has a volume of 16y4 + 16y3
Komok [63]
base 16y^2
height y^2 + y + 3
V = b*h
V = 16y^2(y^2 + y + 3)
V = 16y^4 + 16y^3 + 48y^2

We would like to know the velocity of the block when it reaches some position x. Finding this requires an integration. However,
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

An alternative definition for the acceleration ax that can be written in terms of v_x and \frac{dv_x}{dx} is a_x=v_x \frac{dv_x}{dx}

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that :

a_x=\frac{dv_x}{dt}

Now we are supposed to find an alternative definition for the acceleration ax that can be written in terms of v_x and \frac{dv_x}{dx}

So, We will use chain rule over here :

a_x=\frac{dv_x}{dt}\\a_x=\frac{dv_x}{dt} \times \frac{dx}{dx}\\a_x=\frac{dv_x}{dx} \times \frac{dx}{dt}\\a_x=\frac{dv_x}{dx} \times \frac{dx}{dt}  [\frac{dx}{dt}=v_x]\\a_x=\frac{dv_x}{dx} \times v_x\\a_x=v_x\frac{dv_x}{dx}

Hence an alternative definition for the acceleration ax that can be written in terms of v_x and \frac{dv_x}{dx} is a_x=v_x \frac{dv_x}{dx}

The ratio of the lengths of the sides of △ABC is 3:6:7. M, N, and K are the midpoints of the sides. Perimeter of △MNK equals 7.4
artcher [175]

Answer:

AB=2.775

BC=5.55

CA=6.475

Step-by-step explanation:

Since midpoints split their sides in half, we can see that the triangle MNK formed by the midpoints will be half the perimeter of the triangle ABC. Since P of MNK = 7.4, we know that the perimeter of ABC = 7.4 * 2, which is 14.8. Now we can split the 14.8 so that it follows the ratio.

3+6+7=16

14.8/16=0.925

AB=0.925*3=2.775

BC=0.925*6=5.55

CA=0.925*7=6.475

If DE=4x+10, EF =2x-1, and DF=9x-15, find DF
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

If DE = 4x+10,EF =2X -1, and DF= 9x - 15 find DF

(de + ef ) - df = 2e || 2e/2 = e || ed - e = d || ef - e = f || f + d =  df

de + ef = 6x + 11 || (6x +11) - df = -3x -6 || 2e/2 = -3x/2 - 3  || (-3x/2 - 3) - de = x/2 + 7||  (- 3x/2 - 3) - ef = -x/2 - 1|| d + f = 6
