Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Anand = x

Sharma = x + 3

6 years ago

Anand = x - 6

Sharma = (x + 3) - 6

= x + 3 - 6

= x - 3

Sharma age = 4 (x - 6)

Six years ago Sharma's age was four times Anand's age.

x + 3 = 4(x - 6)

x - 3 = 4x - 24

x - 4x = -24 + 3

- 3x = - 21

x = - 21/-3

x = 7

Anand = x = 7 years

Sharma = x + 3

= 7 + 3

= 10 years

Show that the three points whose position vectors are 7j+ 10k,-i + 6j+6k and - 4i + +9j + 6k form an isosceles right

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

AB = √18 , BC=√18 and CA =4

AB²+BC² = CA² and AB=BC

ΔABC isosceles right angled triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given vectors are 7j+ 10k,-i + 6j+6k and - 4i + +9j + 6k

A( 0,7,10), B( -1,6,6) C(-4,9,6)

AB⁻ = OB-OA = -I+6j+6k-(7j+10k) = -I-j-4k

AB = $\sqrt{1+1+16} = \sqrt{18}$

BC = OC-OB = -4i+9j+6k-(-I+6j+6k) = -3i+3j

BC= $\sqrt{9+9} =\sqrt{18}$

CA = OA-OC = 7j+10k - (- 4i + +9j + 6k ) = 4i-2j+4k

CA = $\sqrt{16+4+16} =\sqrt{36} =4$

Since AB²+BC² = CA²

And AB=BC

Therefore it follows that ΔABC is a right angled isosceles triangle

Artist 52 [7]

All you need to do is multiply the amount of boys by the distance each boy runs.

9x3/5=5.4 miles

The boys run a combined distance of 5.4 miles.

Find the length of the longest line segment that can be drawn on a rectangular board 3.07m by 2.24m

nikklg [1K]

For rectangle
l=3.07m
b=2.24m
so longest side that can be drawn is diagonal of rectangular board
=squareroot l^2+b^2
=squareroot3.07^2+2.24^2
=squareroot9.4249+5.0176
=squareroot14.4425
=3.80
So longest line that can be drawn in rectangular board is 3.80m

Find dy/dx implicitly and find the largest interval of the form −a < y < a or 0 < y < a such that y is a differentia

mylen [45]

Answer:

dy/dx = -1/√(1 - x²)

For 0 < y < π

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function cos y = x

-siny dy = dx

-siny dy/dx = 1

dy/dx = -1/siny (equation 1)

But cos²y + sin²y = 1

=> sin²y = 1 - cos²y

=> siny = √(1 - cos²y) (equation 2)

Again, we know that

cosy = x

=> cos²y = x² (equation 3)

Using (equation 3) in (equation 2), we have

siny = √(1 - x²) (equation 4)

Finally, using (equation 4) in (equation 1), we have

dy/dx = -1/√(1 - x²)

The largest interval is when

√(1 - x²) = 0

=> 1 - x² = 0

=> x² = 1

=> x = ±1

So, the interval is

-1 < x < 1

arccos(1) < y < arxcos(-1)

= 0 < y < π
