How do you solve the following word problem

A small radio transmitter broadcasts in a 49 mile radius. If you drive along a straight line from a city 67 miles north of the transmitter to a second city 63 miles east of the transmitter, during how much of the drive will you pick up a signal from the transmitter?


I must give the answer in miles and am unclear as to what equations to use and need details on what equations to use to get to the correct answer.

thanks for any help.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the transmitter be located at (0,0)

The equation for its effective coverage area will be a circle centered at  (0,0)  with a radius of 49.

So....the equation is  

[tex]x^2 + y^2 = 49^2[/tex]

[tex]x^2 + y^2 = 2401[/tex]

Let the point 67 miles north of the transmitter be (0, 67)

Let the point 63  miles east of the transmitter be (63, 0)

The line connecting these (the line of travel)  will have a slope of

[67 - 0] / [ 0 - 63]  =  -67/63

The equation of this line will be: y  = (-67/63)x  + 67

The signal will be received between the points:

(21.681, 43.942)  and (45.192, 18.938)

The distance between these points  is

[tex]\sqrt{[ ( 45.192 - 21.681)^2 + ( 43.942 - 18.938)^2 ] } = 34.322 miles[/tex]    (1)

The distance  between (0, 63) and (67, 0)

[tex]\sqrt{[ ( 63)^2 + ( 67)^2 ] }=91.97miles[/tex] (2)

So....you will receive the signal using  (1)/ (2)    

(34.322 / 91.97) x 100  ≈  37%  of the drive

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

12 cups of raisins

Step-by-step explanation:

If our ratio is 3 to 1 or for every one cup of oatmeal we have 3 cups of raisins, we want our new ratio to be equal to that ratio!

Our new ratio is ? to 4, we know that for every one cup of oatmeal we have 3 cups of raisins then...

We have to multiple 3×4 to find our ?

3×4 = 12

So, we know that for every 4 cups of oatmeal we will have 3 cups of raisins!

A student group claims that first-year students at a university must study 2.5 hours (150 minutes) per night during the school week. A skeptic suspects that they study less than that on the average. A class survey finds that the average study time claimed by 272 students is xbar= 141 minutes, with a sample standard deviation of 66.

Regard these students as a random sample of all first-year students and suppose we know that the study times follow a Normal distribution.

What is the standard error of the sample mean?

Consider the hypotheses H0: µ = 150 against Ha: µ < 150.

What is the value of the test statistic? Give your answer to two decimal places.

The p-value for the correct test statistic is 0.0126. What do you conclude at the a = 0.05 level?

We do not have enough evidence to say that students are not studying 2.5 hours per night during the school week.
We have strong evidence that, on average, students study less than 2.5 hours per night during the school week.

Answers

Answer:

We have strong evidence that on average, students study less than 150 minutes per night during the school week

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal distribution:

mean     μ₀ = 150

Sample:

Sample size    n = 272

Sample mean   x = 141

Sample standard deviation  s  = 66

The standard error of the sample mean  SE = σ /√n

SE = 66/√272

SE = 66 / 16,49

SE = 4

Test Hypothesis:

Null hypothesis                            H₀             x  =   μ₀

Alternative hypothesis                Hₐ            x <    μ₀

z(s)  test statistics is:

z(s)  =  ( x  -  μ₀ ) / s/√n

z(s) = - 9 /4

z(s) =  -  2,25

p-value  for that z(s)      p-value  = 0,0122

Then for α =  0,05 p-value < 0,05

We are in the rejection region we need to reject H₀

Answer:

y - 4 = (1/3)(x - 9)  or x - 3y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we're told that the slope is 1/3 and that (9, 4) is a point on the line.  Use the point-slope formula  y - k = m(x - h).  Substitute 4 for k, 9 for h and 1/3 for m:

y - 4 = (1/3)(x - 9)  (point-slope formula)

3y - 12 = x - 9  (standard form of the same equation) = >

     -12 + 9 = x - 3y, or x - 3y = -3 (standard form)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]f(t) = 1 - cos^2\ t[/tex] and [tex]f(t) = sin^2\ t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]\frac{sec\ t - cos\ t}{sec\ t} = f(t)[/tex]

Required

Simplify

[tex]f(t) = \frac{sec\ t - cos\ t}{sec\ t}[/tex]

Split fraction

[tex]f(t) = \frac{sec\ t }{sec\ t} - \frac{cos\ t}{sec\ t}[/tex]

[tex]f(t) = 1 - \frac{cos\ t}{sec\ t}[/tex]

[tex]sec\ t = \frac{1}{cos\ t}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f(t) = 1 - \frac{cos\ t}{\frac{1}{cos\ t}}[/tex]

[tex]f(t) = 1 - cos\ t * cos\ t[/tex]

[tex]f(t) = 1 - cos^2\ t[/tex]

In trigonometry:

[tex]1 - cos^2\ t = sin^2\ t[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]f(t) = sin^2\ t[/tex]

Answer:

x = 0; y = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x + 3y = 15

2x - 3y = -15

Add the equations to eliminate y.

3x = 0

x = 0

Now plug in 0 for x in the first equation to solve for y.

-5(0) + 3y = 15

3y = 15

y = 5

A wooden roller coaster contains a run in the shape of a sinusoidal​ curve, with a series of hills. The crest of each hill is 108 feet above the ground. If it takes a car 1.9 seconds to go from the top of a hill to the bottom ​(4 feet off the​ ground), find a sinusoidal function of the form y = A sin(ωt - Φ) + B that models the motion of the coaster train during this run starting at the top of a hill.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y(t)=52sin(3.3t+\pi/2)+56[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Height of crest, h=108 feet

Time for one cycle, T=1.9 s

We have to find a sinusoidal function of the form y = A sin(ωt - Φ) + B that models the motion of the coaster train during this run starting at the top of a hill.

We are given

[tex]y=Asin(\omega t-\phi)+B[/tex]

Amplitude,[tex]A=\frac{108-4}{2}=52 feet[/tex]

[tex]B=A+4=52+4=56 feet[/tex]

[tex]\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]\omega=\frac{2\pi}{1.9}=3.3/s[/tex]

We assume,

Horizontal shift [tex]\phi=-\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex]

Substitute the values

[tex]y(t)=52sin(3.3t+\pi/2)+56[/tex]

Hence, the  sinusoidal function  that models the motion of the coaster train during this run starting at the top of a hill is given by

[tex]y(t)=52sin(3.3t+\pi/2)+56[/tex]

Jenny measured 1/7 cup of flour and 1/3 cup of flour. How many total cups of flour did Jenny measure?

Answers

Answer:

I think it 25/36.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of flour is 4/9 + 1/4. The common denominator of 9 and 4 is 36.

So 4/9 + 1/4 = 16/36 + 9/36 = 25/36

Jenny measured a total of 10/21 cups of flour.

Given that,
Jenny measured 1/7 cup of flour and 1/3 cup of flour. How many total cups of flour did Jenny measure is to be determined.

What is the Ratio?

The ratio can be defined as the comparison of the fraction of one quantity towards others. e.g.- water in milk.


What is the fraction?

Fraction is defined as the number of compositions that constitute the Whole. The fraction can be represented in the form of a / b.

Here,
Let, the total measure of the cups of flour be x,

x = 1/7 + 1/3
Taking lcm of the denominator 7, 3 which is 21,
now multiplying the numerators by 3 and 7,
x = (3*1 + 1*7)/21
x = 10 / 21

Thus, Jenny measured a total of 10/21 cups of flour.
