A police car's siren operates at a frequency of 2,000 Hz. What frequency would a stationary listener observe if the police car i

s driving towards him at 65 mph? Note vsound = fλ, where vsound (the speed of sound in air) is 345 m/s. Also, 1 mile = 1.609 km.

we can use formula

f_L=f_s(\frac{v_a-v_p}{v_a+v_p} )

where

fL is listener frequency

fs is siren frequency

va is the speed of sound in air

vs is police car speed

so, we have

f_s=2000Hz

v_a=345m/s

v_p=65mph

now, we can change it into m/s

v_p=65*\frac{1609}{3600}m/s

v_p=29.05139m/s

now, we can plug it

f_L=2000(\frac{345-29.05139}{345+29.05139} )

f_L=1689.33263Hz..............Answer

If x + 12 ≤ 5 − y and 5 − y ≤ 2(x − 3), then which statement is true? A. x + 12 ≤ 2(5 − y) B. x + 12 ≤ 2x − 3 C. x + 12 ≤ 2(x −
anyanavicka [17]

Answer: The correct option is,

C. x + 12 ≤ 2(x − 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given inequalities,

x + 12 ≤ 5 − y and 5 − y ≤ 2(x − 3)

Let a = x + 12, b = 5 - y and c = 2(x-3)

Here, a ≤ b and b ≤ c

Since, by using the transitive property of inequality,

⇒ a ≤ c

⇒ x + 12 ≤ 2(x − 3)

Therefore, OPTION C is correct.

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is
Crank

Answer:

D) 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is given by

(n - 2) \times 180

We have that, the sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

26 right angles. We want to find n, the number of sides.

We substitute into the formula to get:

(n - 2) \times 180 = 26 \times 90

Divide through by 90

2(n - 2) = 26

Divide through by 2

n - 2 = 13

n = 13 + 2

n = 15

90 men and 60 women were asked if they had watched the latest 'Expendables' movie.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

63 men said no.

Step-by-step explanation

3/5 * 2/2 = 6/10, 6/10 - 3/10 (women) = 3/10 meaning 7/10 men said no. 90*1.7 = 153, 153-90=63

Which system is equivalent y=-2x^2 y=x-2
german
The wording of your question suggests that there were answer choices.  Mind sharing them?

The system   <span>y=-2x^2 y=x-2 would be best written as:

</span><span>y=-2x^2 
y=x-2                  If you subst. x-2 for y in the first equation, you'll get:
                           x-2 = -2x^2,   or 2x^2 + x - 2 = 0.

Identify the key characteristics of the parent fifth-root function f (x) = ^5sqrtx. Include the following: domain, range, interv
Andre45 [30]

Given functin is :

f\left(x\right)=\sqrt[5]{x}

We know that the domain of the expression is all real numbers except where the expression is undefined. In given function, there is no real number that makes the expression undefined. Hence domain is all real numbers.

Domain: (-∞,∞)

Range is the set of y-values obtained by plugging values from domain so the range will also same.

Range: (-∞,∞)

If we increase value of x then y-value will also increase so that means it is an INCREASING function. You can also verify that from graph.

It crosses x and y-axes both at the origin

Hence x-intercept=0 and y-intercept=0

Graph is not symmetric about y-axis hence it can't be EVEN

Graph is not symmetric about origin so it is ODD.

There is  no breaking point in the graph so that means it is a Continuous function.

There is no hoirzontal or vertical or slant line which seems to be appearing to touch the graph at infinity so there is NO asymptote.

END behaviour means how y-changes when x approaches infinity.

From graph we can see that when x-approaches -∞ then y also approaches ∞.

when x-approaches +∞ then y also approaches +∞.
