Two sides of a triangle have lengths 12 m and 14 m. The angle between them is increasing at a rate of 2°/min. How fast is the le

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

1.692 m/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $\theta$ be the angle between the two sides and x be the length of the third side. By cosine rule,

$x^2 = 12^2+14^2-2\times12\times14\cos\theta = 340 - 336\cos\theta$

$x= \sqrt{340 - 336\cos\theta}$

We differentiate x with respect to $\theta$ by applying chain rule.

$\dfrac{dx}{d\theta} = \dfrac{336\sin\theta}{2\sqrt{340 - 336\cos\theta}} = \dfrac{168\sin\theta}{\sqrt{340 - 336\cos\theta}}$

Rate of change of $\theta$ is 2

$\dfrac{\theta}{dt} = 2$

Rate of change of x is

$\dfrac{dx}{dt} = \dfrac{dx}{d\theta}\times\dfrac{d\theta}{dt}$

$\dfrac{dx}{dt} = \dfrac{168\sin\theta}{\sqrt{340 - 336\cos\theta}} \times2=\dfrac{336\sin\theta}{\sqrt{340 - 336\cos\theta}}$

At 60°,

$\dfrac{dx}{dt} = \dfrac{336\sin60}{\sqrt{340 - 336\cos60}} = 1.692 \text{ m/min}$

The table gives the probabilities that new cars of different models will have brake failure. The car model that is least likely

melamori03 [73]

<span>All the information we have are the probabilities, and what we need is the lowest number: so let's choose the smallest probability among the numbers: 0.0065%, B 0.0037%,C 0.0108%,D 0.0029%, E 0.0145%. The smallest of the numbers is 0.0029% -it starts with two 00s and the number that follows, 2, is smaller than all there others - so the smallest probability is in option D - and the model would be the corresponding model (but we're missing some information here) </span>

At a certain company, the annual winter party is always held on the second of Friday of December. What is the latest possible da

vitfil [10]

Answer:

The latest possible date is December, 14th.

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the second Friday of December is n+7, where n is the date for the first Friday of December. So, the latest the first Friday, the latest the second. As the weeks have seven days, the first Friday will be between 1st and 7th of each month. So, the latest first Friday will be 7th. Therefore, the latest second Friday will be 14th.

A website reports that 70% of its users are from outside a certain country, and 60% of its users logon the website every day. Su

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

The value is $P (I | L ) = 0.63$

The probability has increased

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The percentage that are from outside the country is $P(O) = 0.70$

The percentage that logs on everyday is $P(L) = 0.60$

The percentage that logs on everyday that are from the inside the country is $P(L | I) = 0.80$

Generally using Bayes' Rule the probability that a person is from the country given that he logs on the website every day is mathematically represented as

$P (I | L ) = \frac{P(I)* P(L|I)}{ P(O) *P(L|O) + P(I) *P(L|I) }$

Where $P(I)$ is the percentage that are from inside that country which is mathematically represented as

$P(I) = 1 - P(O)$

$P(I) = 1 - 0.70$

$P(I) = 0.30$

And $P(L| O)$ is percentage that logs on everyday that are from the outside the country which is evaluated as

$P(L| O) = 1- P(L| I)$

$P(L| O) = 1- 0.80$

$P(L| O) = 0.20$

$P (I | L ) = \frac{ 0.3* 0.80 }{ 0.7 *0.20 + 0.3 * 0.8 }$

$P (I | L ) = 0.63$

Given that the percentage that are from inside that country is $P(I) = 0.30$

and that the probability that a person is from the country given that he logs on the website every day is $P (I | L ) = 0.63$

We see that the additional information increased the probability

Let d(t) be the total number of miles Joanna has cycled, and let t represent the number of hours after stopping for a break duri

katrin [286]

For this case we have the following equation:
$d (t) = 12t + 20
$
The variables are:
t: time in hours
d (t): distance traveled in miles.
We evaluate the distance traveled after 4 hours.
So we have that for t = 4:
$d (4) = 12 (4) +20

d (4) = 48 + 20

d (4) = 68$
Answer:
d (4) = 68
This means that after 4 hours Joanna cycled for 68 miles total
