Caroline resting heart is 52 beats per minute (bpm). When she starts running her heart rate increases 1.25% each second until it
horsena [70]

Answer:74.55 beat per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Heart beat is 52 beat per minute

i.e. B=\frac{52}{60} beat per sec

If heart rate is increases 1.25 % each sec

suppose B is the heart beat at first second therefore heat beat at 2 nd second

B_2=B+1.25 \% B

B_2=B(1+1.25 \% )

For 3 rd sec

B_3=B(1+1.25\%)+1.25\%B(1+1.25\%)

B_3=B(1+1.25\%)^2

similarly for 3 sec

B_{30}=B(1+1.25\%)^{29}

B_{30}=1.433B

B_{30}=1.242\ \text{beat per second }

B_{30}=74.55\ \text{beat per minute}

A local community center built a rectangular basketball court using 100 feet of fence. They used part of one side of the buildin
Rashid [163]

Answer:

Maximum Area of the basketball court = 1250 ft²

Maximum area of the playground = 400 ft²

The basketball is 3.125 times larger than than the playground.

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram representing the description is attached to this solution.

The big rectangle represents the basketball court.

The small rectangle represents the playground.

Let the length and width of the basketball court be y and x respectively.

The length and width of the small playground will be (y-30) and (x-5) respectively

The Area of the basketball court is

A(x, y) = xy

But, 2x + y = 100

We can maximize the Area by turning the two variable function into a one variable function and substituting for y in the Area equation.

2x + y = 100

y = 100 - 2x

A(x, y) = xy

A(x) = x(100 - 2x) = 100x - 2x²

A(x) = 100x - 2x²

At maximum point, (dA/dx) = 0 and (d²A/dx²) < 0, that is, negative.

(dA/dx) = 100 - 4x = 0

(d²A/dx²) = -4 < 0

Hence, it's a maximum point.

At maximum point,

(dA/dx) = 100 - 4x = 0

100 - 4x = 0

4x = 100

x = 25 ft

y = 100 - 2x = 100 - 2(25) = 100 - 50 = 50 ft

Hence, the length and width of the basketball court that maximizes the Area are 50 ft and 25 ft respectively.

For the small playground,

The length = (y - 30) = (50 - 30) = 20 ft

The width = (x - 5) = (25 - 5) = 20 ft

Maximum Area of the basketball court = xy = (50)(25) = 1250 ft²

Maximum area of the playground = (y-30)(x-5) = (20)(20) = 400 ft²

Ratio of the Areas = (1250/400) = 3.125

The basketball is 3.125 times larger than than the playground

Hope this Helps!!!

Which equation correctly applies the law of cosines to solve for an unknown angle measure?
Harman [31]
The law of cosines is:
c² = a² + b² - 2abCos(C)
Therefore, in order to apply this law, we must know the value of two adjacent sides, represented by a and b here, and the value of their subtended angle, represented by C.
