A 26 foot ladder is lowered down a vertical wall at a rate of 3 feet per minute. The base of the ladder is sliding away from the wall. A. At what rate is the ladder sliding away from the wall when the base of the ladder is 10 feet from the wall

Answers

Answer 1

[tex]7.2\:\text{ft/s}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can apply the Pythagorean theorem here:

[tex]26^2 = x^2 + y^2\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:(1)[/tex]

where x is the distance of the ladder base from the wall and y is the distance of the ladder top from the ground. Taking the time derivative of the expression above, we get

[tex]0 = 2x\dfrac{dx}{dt} + 2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}[/tex]

Solving for [tex]\frac{dx}{dt},[/tex] we get

[tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt} = -\dfrac{y}{x}\dfrac{dy}{dt}[/tex]

We can replace y by rearranging Eqn(1) such that

[tex]y = \sqrt{26^2 - x^2}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt} = - \dfrac{\sqrt{26^2 - x^2}}{x}\dfrac{dy}{dt}[/tex]

Since y is decreasing as the ladder is being lowered, we will assign a negative sign to [tex]\frac{dy}{dt}[/tex]. Hence,

[tex]\dfrac{dx}{dt} = - \dfrac{\sqrt{26^2 - (10)^2}}{10}(-3\:\text{ft/min})[/tex]

[tex]\:\:\:\:\:\:\:= 7.2\:\text{ft/min}[/tex]

Layla guesses on all 20 questions of a multiple-choice test. Each question has 4 answer choices. What is the probability of a success and a failure for this experiment?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the criteria for success ? how many questions must be right ? and how many must be wrong for failure ?

if success means all answers right, then she has 4 choices on the first question to pick one right answer. and then for each of those again 4 choices on the second question and so on.

so, all possible outcomes are 4²⁰.

that means the probability to guess all 20 right is

1/4²⁰

a tiny, tiny number.

and the probabilty to have all wrong ?

she has 4 choices to pick 1 of 3 wrong answers.

so, the probability is 3/4 to answer the first question wrong.

for that she has again then the same chance to get the second question wrong too.

so, it is 3/4 × 3/4 = 9/16

and so on.

the probability to guess all 20 wrong is then

(3/4)²⁰ ≈ 0.0032

that is still a small number but much, much larger than the probability to get everything right.

still, even the goal to truly get everything wrong is highly unlikely.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  sin(tan^-1(x)) = x/√(x² +1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for an angle in a right triangle...

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

and

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

so we can let Opposite = x and Adjacent = 1. The Pythagorean theorem tells us that ...

  Hypotenuse² = Opposite² + Adjacent² = x² +1

Then the sine of the angle is ...

  sin(tan^-1(x)) = x/√(x² +1)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the quantity of 80% solution. Then the quantity of 55% solution is (130-x) and the total amount of antifreeze in the mix is ...

  0.55(130 -x) +0.80(x) = 0.70(130)

  0.25x +71.5 = 91 . . . simplify

  0.25x = 19.5 . . . . . . subtract 71.5

  x = 78 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.25; amount of 80%

  130-78 = 52 . . . . amount of 55%

A young boy went to the circus with $30.00 and bought an admission ticket for $6.00, a drink for $2.50, a bag of cotton candy for $1.50, a hamburger for $4.00, a souvenir for $3.00, and a shirt for $11.00. He paid 5% tax on all non-food items. How much money did he have left

Answers

Answer:

$30.00 -( $8.00 +  $21.00) =

$1 left  

$1.00  

Step-by-step explanation:

FOOD non-Food

 $2.50   $6.00  

 $1.50   $3.00  

 $4.00   $11.00  

SUM  $8.00   $20.00  

Tax   $1.00  

The boy have only $1 .

What is percentage?

A percentage is a portion of a whole expressed as a number between 0 and 100 rather than as a fraction.

According to the given question.

The amount of money the boy initially had = $30.00

The amount of money he spent on tickets = $6

Amount of money spent of drink = $2.50

Amount of money spent on cotton candy =$1.50

Amount of money spent on burger = $4

Amount of money spent on souvenir  = $3.00

Amount of money spent on shirt = $11.0

Now,

The total money spent on non-food items

= $6 +$3 + $11

= $20

So, the amount paid as a tax for non food items = 5% of $20 = [tex]\frac{5}{100} (20)[/tex]=$1

And,

The total amount spent including tax

= $1 + $20 + $2.50 + $1.50 + $4.00

= $29

Therefore,

The amount of money is left = $30 - $29 = 1

Hence, the boy have only $1.
