Answer: Time t = 33.0 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the vertical distance H between the dock and the top of the boat's mast t seconds after its first peak is modeled by the function
H(t) = 5cos( 2π/3 t) − 35.5H
Where the maximum vertical distance = 5
At the down position, H(t) = 0
5cos( 2π/3 t) − (35.5/100)H = 0
5cos( 2π/3 t) − 0.355 × 5 =0
5cos( 2π/3 t) − 0.1775 = 0
5cos( 2π/3 t) = 0.1775
cos( 2π/3 t) = 0.1775/5
cos( 2π/3 t) = 0.355
2π/3 t = cos^-1 (0.355)
2π/3 t = 69.2
2πt = 69.2 × 3
2πt = 207.6
t = 207.6/2π
t = 33.0 seconds
Let x be the number of friends.
He wants to give out 2x bars and have 10 left and he has 16 bars so the expression is:-
2x + 10 = 16
now he can solve for x to find the number of friends he can treat.
