Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

You can read the slope of the red line from the graph. It has a rise of 4 for a run of 1, so has slope 4/1 = 4.

__

You also know that the slope of a perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line:

  -1/(-1/4) = 4

The slope of the red line is 4.

A rectangular area is formed having a perimeter of 40 cm. Determine the length and breadth of the rectangle if it is to enclose
Vilka [71]

Let x and y be the dimensions of the rectangle. If the perimeter is 40, we have

2(x+y)=40 \iff x+y=20

We can expression one variable in terms of the others as

x+y=20 \iff x=20-y

Since the area is the product of the dimensions, we have

xy=(20-y)y=-y^2+20y

This is a parabola facing down, so it's vertex is the maximum:

f(y)=-y^2+20y \implies f'(y)=-2y+20

So, the maximum is

f'(y)=0 \iff -2y+20=0 \iff 2y=20 \iff y=10

And since we know that x+y=20, we have x=10 as well.

This is actually a well known theorem: out of all the rectangles with given perimeter, the one with the greatest area is the square.

A merry-go-round has a radius of 18 feet. If a passenger gets on a
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The angle of rotation is 2.11 °

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The radius of the round path = r = 18 feet

The length of the distance cover by wheel = l = 38 feet

Let The angle of rotation = Ф

Now, According to question

∵ length of the arc of a circle subtending an angle at center = Ф

So,

length of the distance cover by wheel = π × radius × \frac{\Theta }{180^{\circ}}

Since 180° = π radian

And π = 3.14

So, length of the distance cover by wheel = 180 °× radius ×  \frac{\Theta }{180^{\circ}}

i.e  l = r × Ф

Or,  Ф = \frac{l}{r}

Or,  Ф =  \frac{38 feet}{18 feet}

Or, Ф = 2.11 °

So, The angle of rotation =  Ф = 2.11 °

Hence, The angle of rotation is 2.11 °   Answer

The radius of a circular pond is increasing at a constant rate, which can be modeled by the function , where t is time in months
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

B. A(r(t)) = 25πt²

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the completed question below

The radius of a circular pond is increasing at a constant rate, which can be modeled by the function r(t) = 5t where t is time in months. The area of the pond is modeled by the function A(r) = πr². The area of the pond with respect to time can be modeled by the composition . Which function represents the area with respect to time? A. B. C. D.

Given

A(t) = πr²

r(t) = 5t

We are to evaluate the composite expression A(r(t))

A(r(t)) = A(5t)

To get A(5t), we will replace r in A(t) with 5t and simplify as shown

A(5t) = π(5t)²

A(5t) = π(25t²)

A(5t) = 25πt²

A(r(t)) = 25πt²

Hence the composite expression A(r(t)) is 25πt²

Option B is correct.
