Mack the bug starts at (0,0) at noon and each minute moves one unit right or one unit up. He is trying to get to the point (5,7)

. However, at (2,3) there is a spider that will eat him if he goes through that point. In how many ways can Mack reach (5,7) ?

<span>This is a very nice counting question. Suggestion / Hint: Count how many ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7) by going through the point (2,3). Then subtract that from ALL POSSIBLE ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7). Hint for the hint: How many ways he can get from (0,0) to (5,7) by going through the point (2,3)? Well, that's the SUM of how many ways he can get from (0,0) to (2,3) and how many ways he get get from (2,3) to (5,7). Hope this helps! :)</span>

A segment has endpoints A (-1, 1) and B (8, 4) . If the segment is divided into four equal parts, the coordinates of the point c
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Line is divided into 4 equal parts.

we have to find a point which is closest to point A.

So that means required point P(x,y) is at 1 unit away from A(-1,1) and 3 unit away from B(8,4)

Now we just need to use section formula to get the coordinate of required point using m1=1 and m2=3

\left ( \frac{m_1x_2+m_2x_1}{m_1+m_2}  , \frac{m_1y_2+m_2y_1}{m_1+m_2} \right )

= \left ( \frac{1*8+3*(-1)}{1+3}  , \frac{1*4+3*1}{1+3} \right )

= \left ( \frac{8-3}{4}  , \frac{4+3}{4} \right )

= \left ( \frac{5}{4}  , \frac{7}{4} \right )

So the final answer is \left ( \frac{5}{4}  , \frac{7}{4} \right ).

If AD = 2/3 AB , what is the ratio of the length of arc BC to the length of arc DE
uysha [10]

You have :

--------------

DE arc = ( pi ) ( AD ) ( 2.36 radians / 2 pi radians ) = ( 2/3 ) ( AB ) ( 2.36 radians / 2 )

DE arc = ( 2/3 ( AB ) ( 1.18 radians )

BC arc = ( pi ) ( AB ) ( 1.18 radians / 2 pi radians )

BC arc = ( AB ) ( 0.59 radians )

BC arc / DE arc = ( AB ) ( 0.59 radians ) / ( 2/3 ) ( AB ) ( 1.18 radians )

BC arc / DE arc = ( AB ) ( 0.59 rad ) / ( 2/3 ) ( AB ) ( 1.18 rad )

BC arc / DE arc = ( 3/2 ) ( .59 rad / 1.18 rad ) = 3/4 <-------

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

$95.78

Step-by-step explanation:

f(t) = 300t / (2t² + 8)

t = 0 corresponds to the beginning of August.  t = 1 corresponds to the end of August.  t = 2 corresponds to the end of September.  So on and so forth.  So the second semester is from t = 5 to t = 10.

$T₂ = ∫₅¹⁰ 300t / (2t² + 8) dt

$T₂ = ∫₅¹⁰ 150t / (t² + 4) dt

$T₂ = 75 ∫₅¹⁰ 2t / (t² + 4) dt

$T₂ = 75 ln(t² + 4) |₅¹⁰

$T₂ = 75 ln(104) − 75 ln(29)

$T₂ ≈ 95.78

The circle will be dilated by a scale factor of 6. What is the value for n if the expression nPI represents the circumference of
IgorLugansk [536]
A dilation by a scale factor of 6 will cause the radius to increase by a factor of 6. So r_{new} = 6r. If we plug this value of r into the formula for the circumference of a circle we get C = 2\pi r_{new} = 2\pi *6r = 12\pi r

So basically N = 12r. You haven't given me any original radius, so I can't give you a constant for N, but if you do have that original radius you can just plug that into 12r.

Based on your comment, N = 12 * 9 = 108 inches
