a boat traveled 90 miles each way downstream and back. the tip downstream took 5 hours. the trip back took 15 hours. find the speed of the boat in still water and the speed of the current.

Answers

Answer 1

The speed of the boat in still water is 12mikes per hour and the speed of the current is 6milesper hour

What is speed?

Speed is defined as, the rate of change of position of an object in any direction. Speed is measured as the ratio of distance to the time in which the distance was covered. Speed is a scalar quantity as it has only direction and no magnitude.

speed = distance /time

speed with downstream = 90/5 = 18miles per hour

speed against down stream = 90/15 = 6 miles per hour

represent the speed of the boat in still water by x and the speed of the downstream by y

therefore x+y = 18 equation 1

x-y = 6 equation 2

subtract equation 2 from 1

2y = 12

y = 12/2 = 6miles/hour

substitute 6 for x in equation 1

x + 6 = 18

x = 18-6 = 12 miles/hour

therefore the speed of the boat with in still water is 12miles per hour and the speed of the current is 6 miles per hour

Indefinite Integral and Chain Rule

Answers

The displacement of the particle from time t = 0 and t = 5, with the velocity function, v(t) = arctan(t² + t - 1), using numerical integration which is the difference in the values of the indefinite integral at t = 0 and t = 5, we get option B

B. 5.504

What is an indefinite integral?

The indefinite integral of a function is the antiderivative of the function, which does not have limits.

The function for the velocity is; v(t) = arctan(t² + t -1)

The position of the particle at time t = 0 is x = 0.085

The duration of the required displacement (between time t = 0 and t = 5)

The displacement = The area under the velocity time graph, therefore;

Displacement = ∫v(t)

Using substitution method, which is the similar to the inverse of chain rule, we get;

[tex]\int\limits {arctan(t^2+t-1)} \, dt = t\cdot arctan(t^2+t-1)-\int\limits {\frac{t\cdot (2\cdot t+1)}{(t^2+t-1)^2+1} } \, dt[/tex]

The value of ∫v(t), using manual steps on an online calculator, is a large expression, however, using numerical integration, we get;

[tex]\int\limits^5_0 {arctan(t^2+t-1)} \, dt \approx 5.504[/tex]

The displacement of the particle from time t = 0 to time t = 5 is about 5.504. The correct option is therefore;

B. 5.504

The displacement is the change in the position of the particle, and is the shortest distance between the particle's current position and the initial position of the particle

Oversize Transport Inc. supplies custom delivery service for very large construction equipment in the southeast region of United States. The most common lead of the specialty trucker is the Caterpillar model 740 dump truck, which is about 258 feet long. The owner of Oversize Transport, who also drives the firm's single 275-foot-long tractor-trailer rig, chooses to lease this huge piece of capital equipment under a five-year contract requiring monthly lease payments of $5,500 per month. Oversize Transport could not service this profitable market with any rig shorter than 275 feet. A typical delivery takes about a day and a half, so Oversize Transport can make at the most only 20 deliveries per month with its one tractor-trailer rig. Under what circumstances is the tractor-trailer a fixed input? A quasi-fixed input?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The tractor-trailer rig is a fixed input under the circumstances described because it is necessary for the business to service this profitable market and it cannot be replaced with any other type of capital equipment. The tractor-trailer is a quasi-fixed input because it has a five-year contract that requires monthly lease payments, so it is not completely fixed in the sense that the business can replace it with another piece of capital equipment at any time.

The zeros of f(x) = 4x³ + 4x² -37x + 44, using the Factor Theorem, are given as follows:

x = -4, x = 1.5 + 0.707i and x = 1.5 - 0.707i.

How to obtain the zeros of the function?

The function for this problem is defined as follows:

f(x) = 4x³ + 4x² -37x + 44.

The first linear factor is given as follows:

x + 4 = 0

x = -4 is the first zero.

The Factor Theorem states that the polynomial can be written as a product of it's linear factors.

x + 4 is of the first degree, while the polynomial is of the third degree, hence the remaining linear factors form a second degree polynomial, thus:

(x + 4)(ax² + bx + c) = 4x³ + 4x² -37x + 44.

Then, multiplying on the left side, we have that:

ax³ + (4a + b)x² + (4b + c)x + 4c = 4x³ + 4x² -37x + 44.

Then the coefficients are given as follows:

ax³ = 4x³ -> a = 4.4a + b = 4 -> b = -12.4c = 44 -> c = 11.

Inserting these coefficients into a quadratic function calculator, the remaining zeros are given as follows:

x = 1.5 + 0.707i, x = 1.5 - 0.707i.

Ratio is described as the comparison of two quantities to determine how many times one obtains the other. The proportion can be expressed as a fraction or as a sign: between two integers.

Given;

The scale on the map is 1:5,000,000

Which implies that 1 cm on the map represent 5,000,000 cm in the actual;

Remember that;

1km = 1000m

1m= 100cm

1km= 100000cm

Convert cm to Km;

Divide by 100,000

5,000,000cm= 5,000,000/100,000= 50km

Now 1:5,000,000= 1cm/50km

That means

1 cm on the map represent 50 Km in the actual

A whale-watching tour boat, moving west at a constant speed 45 miles per hour, has finished viewing a whale and is returning to shore. One whale that is right next to the boat swims away in the opposite direction, moving at a constant speed of 25 miles per hour. They swim apart for 35 minutes and then change direction. The boat turns south and again the whale turns in the opposite direction of the boat. They continue moving apart for another 25 minutes. How far apart are the boat and the whale? (Round your answer to the nearest mile).

Answers

The boat and the whale are about 218.5 miles apart.

Solving for the distance between the boat and the whale:

Using the Pythagorean theorem to calculate the distance between the boat and the whale.

Let's call the distance between the boat and the whale "d" and the time they moved apart "t".

1st movement:

d = 45t

2nd movement:

d = (45t + 25(t+35))²

To calculate the final distance, we need to square d from the second movement and add the result from the first movement.

d² = (45t)² + (25(t+35))²

We know that the boat and the whale were moving apart for 35 minutes and 25 minutes, so we can substitute t = 35 and t = 25 in the equation.

d² = (4535)² + (2560)²

Taking the square root of the result and get the final distance between the boat and the whale.

d =  ([tex]\sqrt{4535 ^{2} +2560^{2} }[/tex])

d ≈ 218.5 miles

Hence, the boat and the whale are about 218.5 miles apart.

It addressed the excesses of industrialization and urbanization. These Christians felt that they were responsible for helping the poor and preached salvation through work for social justice. These Progressives inspired Jane Addams and President Theodore Roosevelt. The Social Gospel seemed contradictory to Social Darwinism, which was based on Charles Darwins theory of natural evolution. It was adapted to indicate that wealth, social status, and property indicated how fit a person was. It appealed to Protestant work ethic because the theory believed that anyone could prosper with hard work, intelligence, and perseverance.

Social Darwinism and the Social Gospel addressed the urban and industrial society of the 19th century. They both had some connection with Protestant ethics or religion.
