Problem Number / Solution18 / Answer:
Work:
Slope = (9-7)/(-5-3) = 2/-8 = -1/4
Equation will be
19 / Answer:
Work:
Here a = 8, b = -20, c = 13
Use quadratic formula
20 / Answers:
(a)
(b)41
Work for both parts:
(a)
(b)
Put x = -1 in
21 / Answers:
(a) 3 seconds
(b) 159 feet
Work for both parts:
(a)
Height will be maximum at t = -b/2a = -96/(2(-16)) = 3 seconds
After 3 seconds, height will be maximum.
(b)
Maximum height = -16*32+96*3+15 = -144+288+15 = 159 feet
22 / Answer: x = -3
Work:
This gives
The givenequation is undefined x = 4
Solution is x = -3
23 / Answers:
(a) sinθ = -3/5
(b) sin 2θ = -24/25
Work for both parts:
(a)
Sine of a angle is negative in quadrant IV.
sinθ = -3/5
(b)
sin 2θ = 2sinθ cos θ = 2(-3/5)(4/5) = -24/25
24 / Proof:
Hence proved.
25 / Answer: 75.6 ft
Work:
Let height of the tree be h
26 / Answer: 34.75
Work:
Angle C = 180°-40°-63° = 77°
Apply sine law
27 / Answers:
(a)0
(b) 90°
Work for both parts:
(a)
u*v = 5*6+10(-3) = 0
(b)
Since u*v = 0 so the vectors are perpendicular.
Angle = 90°
28 / Answers:
(a)Horizontal
(b) (-1-√33, 4) and (-1+√33, 4)
Work for part (b):
Center = (-1, 4)
c2 = a2-b2 = 49-16 = 33
c = √33
Foci : (-1-√33, 4) and (-1+√33, 4)
