How far is Jen from the base of the lighthouse, in meters?

Answer:

x=sqrt(7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 =c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

x^2 + ( sqrt(7))^2 = (sqrt(14))^2

x^2+7 = 14

x^2 = 14-7

x^2 = 7

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(7)

x=sqrt(7)

Answer:

x=28°

Step-by-step explanation:

supplementary angles equal 180°

So:

3x+2x+x+12=180°

6x+12=180

6x=168

x=28°

Therefore:

3x:

3(28)=84°

2x:

2(28)=26°

x+12:

28+12=40°

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The progression of sums is ...

  1, 5, 15, 34, 65, ...

So, first differences are ...

  4, 10, 19, 31

Second differences are ...

  6, 9, 12, ...

Third differences are constant:

  3, 3, ...

This means the expression for Sn will be a cubic expression. If dn is the first of the n-th differences, then the equation can be written as ...

  Sn = S1 +(n -1)(d1 +(n -2)/2(d2 +(n -3)/3(d3)))

And this simplifies a little bit to ...

  Sn = 1 +(n -1)(4 +(n -2)(n +3)/2)

In simpler form, we have ...

  Sn = 1/2(n³ +n)

Then the two terms we're interested in are ...

  S7 = (1/2)(7³ +7) = 175

  S17 = (1/2)(17³ +17) = 2465

Each term Sₙ consists of the sum of a triangular number of terms, which are given by

[tex]T_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n k = 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + n = \frac{n(n+1)}2[/tex]

The triangular numbers are given recursively for n ≥ 1 by

[tex]T_n = T_{n-1} + n[/tex]

starting with T₀ = 0.

For example,

• S₁ = 1 and

[tex]\displaystyle S_1 = \sum_{k=T_0+1}^{T_1} k = \sum_{k=1}^1 k = 1[/tex]

• S₂ = 2 + 3 and

[tex]\displaystyle S_2 = \sum_{k=T_1+1}^{T_2} k = \sum_{k=2}^3 k = 2 + 3[/tex]

• S₃ = 4 + 5 + 6 and

[tex]\displaystyle S_3 = \sum_{k=T_2+1}^{T_3} k = \sum_{k=4}^6 k = 4 + 5 + 6[/tex]

Then the n-th term of the sequence we're considering is

[tex]S_n = \displaystyle \sum_{k=T_{n-1}+1}^{T_n} k = \sum_{k=T_{n-1}+1}^{T_{n-1}+n} k[/tex]

Expanding this sum, we have

[tex]S_n = \left(T_{n-1}+1\right) + \left(T_{n-1}+2\right) + \left(T_{n-1}+3\right) + \cdots + \left(T_{n-1}+n\right)[/tex]

There are n terms on the right side, and hence n copies of [tex]T_{n-1}[/tex], and the rest of the terms make up the next triangular number [tex]T_n[/tex] :

[tex]S_n = nT_{n-1} + 1 + 2 + 3 + \cdots + n[/tex]

[tex]S_n = nT_{n-1} + \displaystyle \sum_{k=1}^n k[/tex]

[tex]S_n = nT_{n-1} + T_n[/tex]

We have a closed form for [tex]T_n[/tex], so we end up with

[tex]S_n = n \cdot \dfrac{(n-1)n}2 + \dfrac{n(n+1)}2 \implies \boxed{S_n=\dfrac{n^3+n}2}[/tex]

From here it's easy to find S₇ and S₁₇.

[tex]S_7 = \dfrac{7^3+7}2 \implies \boxed{S_7 = 175}[/tex]

[tex]S_{17} = \dfrac{17^3+17}2 \implies \boxed{S_{17} = 2465}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).

The midpoint formula is given as: [tex](x_m, y_m) = (\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Where,

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = coordinates of the midpoint

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = coordinates of the first point

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = coordinates of the second point

Given the following:

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = M( 6,-4)

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = G(8,-2)

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = H(?, ?)

Plug in the values into the midpoint formula

[tex]M(6, -4) = (\frac{8 + x_2}{2}, \frac{-2 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Solve for the x-coordinate and y-coordinate separately

[tex]6 = \frac{8 + x_2}{2}[/tex]

[tex]6 \times 2 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 - 8 = x_2\\\\4 = x_2\\\\\mathbf{x_2 = 4}[/tex]

[tex]-4 = \frac{-2 + y_2}{2}\\\\-8 = -2 + y_2\\\\-8 + 2 = y_2\\\\-6 = y_2\\\\\mathbf{y_2 = -6}[/tex]

Therefore, using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule when you divide two values with the same base is to subtract the exponents.

well, first off, when it comes to volumes by rotation, we'd want to graph them, Check the picture below.  Our rotation over the axis will give us a "washer", so we'll be using the washer method.

now, our axis of rotation is the y-axis or namely x = 0, x = 0 is a vertical line, meaning we have to put the functions in y-terms, that is in f(y) form

[tex]y = x^2\implies \pm\sqrt{y}=x\implies \boxed{\pm\sqrt{y}=f(y)} \\\\\\ y = 4x\implies \cfrac{y}{4}=x\implies \boxed{\cfrac{y}{4}=g(y)}[/tex]

if we look at the picture, the parabola is the farthest from the axis of rotation and the line is the closest, or namely R² and r² respectively.

the way I get the area for R² and r², is by using the same I do with "area under the curve", so if I say call the axis of rotation h(y), the way I get the area is

R => f(y) - h(y)

r => g(y) - h(y)

so let's proceed.

[tex]\textit{area under the curve}\\ \begin{array}{llll} \sqrt{y}- 0\implies &\sqrt{y}\\ \frac{y}{4}-0\implies &\frac{y}{4} \end{array}\qquad \qquad \begin{array}{llll} \stackrel{R^2}{(\sqrt{y})^2}-\stackrel{r^2}{\left( \frac{y}{4} \right)^2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ y\qquad -\qquad \frac{y^2}{16} \end{array}[/tex]

now, we want to get the area enclosed by both, and thus we'd need their points of intersection, setting both to [tex]\sqrt{y}=\cfrac{y}{4}[/tex]  which in short gives us the bounds of 0 and 16.

[tex]\pi \displaystyle\int_{0}^{16}\left( y - \cfrac{y^2}{16} \right)dy\implies \pi \int_{0}^{16}y\cdot dy-\pi \int_{0}^{16}\cfrac{y^2}{16}\cdot dy\\\\\\\pi \cdot \left. \cfrac{y^2}{2} \right]_{0}^{16}-\pi \cdot \left. \cfrac{y^3}{48} \right]_{0}^{16}\implies 128\pi -\cfrac{256\pi }{3}\implies \boxed{\cfrac{128\pi }{3}}[/tex]

The least common multiple is the smallest expression that can be divided by both of the given expressions.

x^2 - 16 = (x - 4)(x + 4)

x^2 + 4x - 32 = (x + 8)(x - 4)

Both of the factored versions of the expressions have an (x - 4) in them. Thus, that will automatically be included in the LCM. Next, we have to include the (x + 4) and the (x + 8) in our LCM.

LCM = (x - 4)(x + 4)(x + 8)

Answer:

DC

Step-by-step explanation:

If we rotate a segment around a point 360 degrees, we have rotated it around to its original point. Similarly, if we rotate it 180 degrees, we have rotated it to the side opposite of where it once was relative to the point.

What we can do is see how much 144 degrees is of 360 and use that to determine how far around we rotate AE around F.

144/360

divide by 12 because that is a common factor of both the numerator and denominator

12 / 30

divide by 2 because that is a common factor

6/15

divide by 3 because that is a common factor

2/5

Therefore, 144/360 = 2/5. This means that we rotate segment AE 2/5 of the way around point F. We have 5 sides in the polygon ABCDE, and each represents 1/5 of the way around. Going counterclockwise, ED represents 1/5, DC represents 2/5, and so on. We are looking for 2/5, so DC is our answer

we need the image to solve the problem

The equation of the distance of the plane from the city in Ecuador is a

linear  equation that has a constant rate of change.

Reasons:

The equation that estimates the distance of the plane from the city in

Ecuador is d = 2565 - 500·t

Where;

d = The distance in miles from the city in Ecuador

t = The time in hours after taking off from the city in Pennsylvania

Required:

The meaning of -500 in the context of the problem.

Solution:

By using dimensional analysis, we have;

Given that d is in miles and t is in hours, 2,565 is in miles, and 500 × t is in

miles.

Therefore, -500 is in miles per hour, which is the speed of the plane.

The -500 therefore, in the context, is the number of miles, the rate, by

which the plane becomes closer to the city in Ecuador every hour.

https://brainly.com/question/1388646

We can  analice through a  dimensional evaluation, every term in any equation.

Solution is:

The term - 500 × t

represents, the quantity of miles travel in the time t

Looking carefully each term in the equation:

d = 2565 - 500×t

And knowing:

We are able to answer the question.

Then in the expression

d = 2565 - 500×t

As d is in miles, we must understand that 2565 is the total distance of the trip, also in miles, should and the product  -500×t must also be in miles. According to that, the number 500 is necessarily in miles/hours (the speed of the plane),  and the negative sign for 500 means that the total distance 2565 miles should be subtracted from the total time of travel.

For instance if t = 1 hour

d = 2565 miles - 500 (miles)/hour × 1 (hour)

As we can see we are able to determine the total time of fly, as the total distance between the cities is 2565, and 500 is the speed of the plane (constant during the whole trip).

For the whole trip

d = 2565 miles    then total fly time is:

2565 (miles)/ 500 (miles/hour)×t

To get .  t = 5.13 h
