Answer:

  boat speed: (7t -95)/(6t² -110t +500)

  stream speed: (37t -345)/(6t² -110t +500)

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...

  time = distance/speed

The boat speed (b) is added to the stream speed (s) going downstream. The stream speed is subtracted going upstream. The given relations tell us ...

  25/(b-s) +44/(b+s) = t

  15/(b-s) +22/(b+s) = 5

This gives us 2 equations in 3 unknowns, so we can only provide a solution in terms of one of the unknowns. Since we are asked for the speeds, they will be provided in terms of t.

Subtracting the first equation from 2 times the second gives ...

  2(15/(b-s) +22/(b+s)) -(25/(b-s) +44/(b+s)) = 2(5) -(t)

  5/(b-s) = 10 -t

  5/(10 -t) = b -s

Substituting for b-s in the second equation gives ...

  15/(5/(10-t)) +22/(b+s) = 5

  30 -3t +22/(b+s) = 5

  22/(b+s) = 3t -25

  22/(3t -25) = b+s

Adding the equations for the sum and difference of speeds, we get ...

  (b-s) +(b+s) = 5/(10-t) +22/(3t -25)

  2b = (5(3t -25) +22(10 -t))/((10-t)(3t-25)) = (95 -7t)/((10-t)(3t-25))

  b = (7t -95)/(6t² -110t +500)

Subtracting the equations for sum and difference of speeds, we get ...

  (b+s) -(b-s) = 22/(3t -25) -5/(10 -t)

  2s = (22(10-t) -5(3t -25))/((10-t)(3t-25))

 s = (37t -345)/(6t² -110t +500)

__

The speed of the boat in still water is (7t -95)/(6t² -110t +500) km/h.

The speed of the stream is (37t -345)/(6t² -110t +500) km/h.

__

Note that these solutions only make sense for values of t between 25/3 and 345/37, approximately 8.33 < t < 9.32. For t=9 hours, the boat speed is 8 km/h and the stream speed is 3 km/h.

angle A and angle B are complementary angles. If m angle A = (6x – 8)° and m
angle B = (5x + 21)°, then find the measure of angle B.

Answers

Answer: B = 56 degrees

Step-by-step explanation: Complementary angles add up 90 degrees. So we will set both of the equations equal to 90 degrees and then solve from there.

6x+8+5x+21=90

1. Simplify 5x + 6x and 21 - 8

11x+13=90

 

2. Subtract 13 from both sides.

11x=90-13

 

3. Simplify 90-13 to 77.

11x=77  

4. Divide both sides by 11.

x = 77/11

​    

5. Simplify 77/11 to 7

 x=7

Now we have to take the value of x and substitute it back into B = (5x+21)

1. Substitute

B = (5(7)+21)

B = 35 +21

B = 56

Solve the equation for the interval [0, 2pi). 2sin^2x = sin x
A) 0, pi, pi/6, 5pi/6
B) pi/6, 5pi/6
C) pi/3, 2pi/3
D) pi/2, 3pi/2, pi/3, 2pi/3​

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to solve the equation:

[tex]2\sin^2(x)=\sin(x)[/tex]

For the interval [0, 2π).

First, we can move all the terms to one side. Start off by subtracting sin(x) from both sides:

[tex]2\sin^2(x)-\sin(x)=0[/tex]

We can factor:

[tex]\sin(x)\left(2\sin(x)-1\right)=0[/tex]

By the Zero Product Property:

[tex]\sin(x)=0\text{ or } 2\sin(x)-1=0[/tex]

Solve for each case:

[tex]\displaystyle \sin(x)=0\text{ or } \sin(x)=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Use the unit circle to solve:

[tex]\displaystyle x=\left\{0, \frac{\pi}{6},\frac{5\pi}{6}, \pi\right\}[/tex]

Hence, our answer is A.

*Please note that we should not simply divide both sides by sin(x) to acquire 2sin(x) = 1. The problem with the operation is that we are dividing by sin(x), yet we do not know what the value of x is. Thus, one or more values of x may result in sin(x) = 0, and we cannot divide by 0. Hence, we are required to subtract and then factor, unless the question specifically states that sin(x) ≠ 0.
