Sarah is driving her car very smoothly from
Austin to Dallas one day. At 6:00 pm she is
travelling at 20 mph, while 25 minutes later
she is travelling at 40 mph.
Calculus tells us that at some time between
6:00 pm and and 6:25 pm her acceleration is
exactly x mph/h. Determine x.

Answers

Answer 1
Final answer:

The acceleration (x) is approximately 48 mph/hr, determined by dividing the change in velocity (20 mph) by the change in time (0.41667 hr).

Explanation:

The subject of this problem is acceleration, which in this context refers to the rate at which Sarah increased her speed during a particular period of time. Here, the change in speed was from 20 mph to 40 mph, a difference of 20 mph. The time over which this change occurred was 25 minutes, but since acceleration is usually measured in hours, we need to convert this to 25/60 = 0.4167 hours.

The formula for acceleration is change in speed/ change in time.

Therefore, to calculate the acceleration, we divide the change in speed (20 mph) by the time (0.4167 hr) to get x = 20 mph / 0.4167 hr = 47.99 mph/hr or approximately 48 mph/hr, which is the acceleration.

Wow !  We might actually have to do some work for this one.

First, you have to find the area of the rectangle.  I guess, just now,
that means the one who has to do that is me.

We know that it's a rectangle, because they told us so.
The corners are located at
  (1, 4)
  (4, 7)
  (8, 3)
and
  (5, 0).

Do you remember how to find the distance between 2 points ?

               Distance  =  √ (difference-in-'x' ²  +  difference-in-'y' ²)

The distance between the first 2 points is    √(3² + 3²)  =  √18

The distance between point-2 and point-3 is  √(4² + 4²) = √32

The distance between point-3 and point-4 is  √(3² + 3²) = √18

The distance between point-4 and point-1 is  √(4² + 4²) = √32 .

Notice that it wasn't really necessary to find all four distances.   
As soon as I found the first two distances, I knew that one is the length
of the rectangle and the other one is the width of the rectangle, so I didn't
have to bother finding the other two, because I knew that they would be
the same as the first two.  I just did it anyway, to make SURE that they
were the same.  That helped me be sure that I didn't make any mistakes.

So here we are, outstanding in our field. (Actually, in Ms. Stone's field.)
We have a rectangle with a length of √32 units and a width of √18 units.

The area of any rectangle is  (length) · (width)

                                       =  (√32 units) · (√18 units)

                                       =  √(32 · 18)    units²

                                       =   √ (576)      units²

                                       =        24  units²   .

We also know that each square unit on the map indicates 16 acres.
So the actual area of the field is

                      (24 units²) · (16 acres/unit²)  =  384 acres .

Ms. Stone sold the field for  $858,240 .

The unit sale price was

                ($858,240) / (384 acres)  =  $2,235 / acre .

Ms. Stone can now move into the city and live the life of a rich lady.

Show that f is strictly monotonic on the given interval and therefore has an inverse function on that interval: f(x) = cot(x), (0,pi)

Answers

The derivative is always negative on (0, infinity), therefore , f is decreasing and thus has an inverse on this interval.

Hope This Helped!!! :)
Final answer:

To show that f(x) = cot(x) is strictly monotonic on the interval (0,pi), we need to show that the derivative of f(x) is either strictly positive or strictly negative on that interval.

Explanation:

To show that f(x) = cot(x) is strictly monotonic on the interval (0,pi), we need to show that the derivative of f(x) is either strictly positive or strictly negative on that interval.

The derivative of f(x) can be found using the chain rule as follows:

Find the derivative of cot(x): d(cot(x))/dx = -csc^2(x)Since f(x) = cot(x), the derivative of f(x) is -csc^2(x).

Now, let's consider the interval (0,pi). The function f(x) = cot(x) is defined on this interval, and its derivative -csc^2(x) is strictly negative for all x in (0,pi). Therefore, f(x) is strictly decreasing on the interval (0,pi), which means it is strictly monotonic.

Since f(x) is strictly monotonic on the interval (0,pi), it has an inverse function on that interval. The inverse function of f(x) is denoted as f^{-1}(x).

Which lines are parallel if m4 = m5? Justify your answer.

Answers

Answer:

r and s are parellel

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is that lines 4 and 5 are parallel if  [tex]\( m_4 = m_5 \).[/tex]

To justify this answer, we must understand the concept of slope in the context of lines in a plane. The slope of a line, denoted by m is a measure of its steepness and is defined as the ratio of the vertical change (rise) to the horizontal change (run) between two points on the line. Mathematically, if two points on a line have coordinates [tex]\( (x_1, y_1) \)[/tex] and [tex]\( (x_2, y_2) \),[/tex] then the slope m is given by: [tex]\[ m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} \][/tex] For two lines to be parallel, they must have the same slope. This is because parallel lines have the same steepness and never intersect. Therefore, if the slope of line 4, [tex]\( m_4 \)[/tex], is equal to the slope of line 5, [tex]\( m_5 \)[/tex], then lines 4 and 5 are parallel.  In mathematical notation, if [tex]\( m_4 = m_5 \),[/tex] then line 4 and line 5 are parallel, which can be written as: [tex]\[ m_4 = m_5 \Rightarrow \text{Line 4} \parallel \text{Line 5} \][/tex] This conclusion is based on the fundamental properties of slopes and parallel lines in Euclidean geometry. If the slopes of two lines are equal, it means that they rise and run at the same rate, and thus, they will maintain a constant distance from each other, never intersecting, which is the definition of parallel lines.

We have then:

[tex] 0.05x + 0.25y = 3.90

y = x + 6

Solving the system of equations graphically we have:

[tex] x = 8

y = 14

Note: see attached image for the graphic solution.

Answer: There are 8 nickels and 14 quarters.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

there are $3.90 worth of nickles and quarters in a piggy bank.

Let the number of nickles be x

Let the number of quarters be x+6

As we know that

[tex]1\ nickle=0.05\ dollars\\\\and\\\\\ 1\ quarter=0.25\ dollars[/tex]

According to question,

[tex]0.05x+0.25(x+6)=3.90\\\\0.05x+0.25x+1.5=3.90\\\\0.3x=3.90-1.5\\\\0.3x=2.4\\\\x=\frac{2.4}{0.3}=8\\\\and \\\\x+6=8+6=14[/tex]

Hence, there are 8 nickels and 14 quarters.

What is the probability of getting 3 tails when tossing a coin 4 times?

Answers

I think the answer would be 1/4

The probability of getting 3 tails, when tossing a coin 4 times is 25%

To find the probability of getting 3 tails when tossing a coin 4 times, we can use the binomial probability formula:

[tex]\[ P(X = k) = \binom{n}{k} \times p^k \times (1 - p)^{n - k} \][/tex]

Where:

- P(X = k) is the probability of getting exactly k successes (in this case, 3 tails).

- n is the number of trials (coin tosses).

- k is the number of successes we are interested in (in this case, 3 tails).

- p is the probability of success on each trial (in this case, the probability of getting tails).

- [tex]\( (1 - p) \)[/tex] is the probability of failure on each trial (in this case, the probability of getting heads).

Since the coin is fair, the probability of getting tails p is [tex]\( \frac{1}{2} \)[/tex], and the probability of getting heads [tex](\( 1 - p \))[/tex] is also [tex]\( \frac{1}{2} \)[/tex].

Substituting these values into the formula:

[tex]\[ P(X = 3) = \binom{4}{3} \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^3 \times \left(1 - \frac{1}{2}\right)^{4 - 3} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ P(X = 3) = \binom{4}{3} \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^3 \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^1 \][/tex]

[tex]\[ P(X = 3) = 4 \times \left(\frac{1}{8}\right) \times \left(\frac{1}{2}\right) \][/tex]

[tex]\[ P(X = 3) = \frac{4}{16} \][/tex]

[tex]\[ P(X = 3) = \frac{1}{4} \][/tex]

To express the probability as a percentage, we multiply by 100:

[tex]\[ P(X = 3) = \frac{1}{4} \times 100\% = 25\% \][/tex]

Therefore, the probability of getting 3 tails when tossing a coin 4 times is 25%.
