In the diagram shown, M, N and P are collinear and QM=QN as shown. If mMQN = 48" and
mNQP = 33. Justify why QNP must be isosceles.

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the measure of the angles of ∆QNP.

∆QMN is am isosceles ∆, because it has two equal sides. Therefore, its base angles would be the same. Thus:

m<MNQ = ½(180 - 48) (one of the base angles of ∆QMN)

m<MNQ = ½(132) = 66°

Next, find m<QNP

m<QNP = 180° - m<MNQ (linear pair angles)

m<QNP = 180° - 66° (Substitution)

m<QNP = 114°

Next, find m<P

m<P = 180 - (m<QNP + m<PQN) (sum of ∆)

m<P = 180 - (114 + 33)

m<P = 180 - 147

m<P = 33°

Thus, in ∆QNP, there are two equal angles, namely, <P and <PQN.

An isosceles ∆ had two equal base angles. Therefore, ∆QNP must be an isosceles ∆.

An isosceles triangle is that the triangle must have two sides of equal length.

Triangle QNP is isosceles triangle because, QN = PN

In triangle QMN,  

        Since,  QM = QN

 So,  ∠QMN = ∠QNM

By property of triangle:

∠MQN + ∠QNM + ∠QMN = 180

   48 + 2 ∠QNM = 180

              ∠QNM = [tex]\frac{180-48}{2}[/tex] = 66  degree

  So, ∠QMN = ∠QNM = 66 degree

from figure,

    ∠QNM + ∠QNP = 180

                    ∠QNP = 180 - 66 = 114 degree.

In triangle QNP,  

              ∠QNP + ∠PQN + ∠QPN = 180

                        ∠QPN = 180 - 33 - 114 = 33 degree

Since,     ∠QNP = ∠QPN = 33 degree

Therefore, triangle QNP is isosceles triangle.

The concentration C of certain drug in a patient's bloodstream t hours after injection is given by

C(t)= t/3t^2+5

Required:
a. Find the horizontal asymptote of C(t). (Answer must be in slope-intercept form.)
b. Determins what happens to the concentration of the drug as t increases. As t increases, what value will c(t) approach.
c. Determine the time at which the concentration is highest.

Answers

Answer:

a) The horizontal asymptote of [tex]C(t)[/tex] is [tex]c = 0[/tex].

b) When t increases, both the numerator and denominator increases, but given that the grade of the polynomial of the denominator is greater than the grade of the polynomial of the numerator, then the concentration of the drug converges to zero when time diverges to the infinity. There is a monotonous decrease behavior.  

c) The time at which the concentration is highest is approximately 1.291 hours after injection.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The horizontal asymptote of [tex]C(t)[/tex] is the horizontal line, to which the function converges when [tex]t[/tex] diverges to the infinity. That is:

[tex]c = \lim _{t\to +\infty} \frac{t}{3\cdot t^{2}+5}[/tex] (1)

[tex]c = \lim_{t\to +\infty}\left(\frac{t}{3\cdot t^{2}+5} \right)\cdot \left(\frac{t^{2}}{t^{2}} \right)[/tex]

[tex]c = \lim_{t\to +\infty}\frac{\frac{t}{t^{2}} }{\frac{3\cdot t^{2}+5}{t^{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]c = \lim_{t\to +\infty} \frac{\frac{1}{t} }{3+\frac{5}{t^{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]c = \frac{\lim_{t\to +\infty}\frac{1}{t} }{\lim_{t\to +\infty}3+\lim_{t\to +\infty}\frac{5}{t^{2}} }[/tex]

[tex]c = \frac{0}{3+0}[/tex]

[tex]c = 0[/tex]

The horizontal asymptote of [tex]C(t)[/tex] is [tex]c = 0[/tex].

b) When t increases, both the numerator and denominator increases, but given that the grade of the polynomial of the denominator is greater than the grade of the polynomial of the numerator, then the concentration of the drug converges to zero when time diverges to the infinity. There is a monotonous decrease behavior.  

c) From Calculus we understand that maximum concentration can be found by means of the First and Second Derivative Tests.

First Derivative Test

The first derivative of the function is:

[tex]C'(t) = \frac{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)-t\cdot (6\cdot t)}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]C'(t) = \frac{1}{3\cdot t^{2}+5}-\frac{6\cdot t^{2}}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{2}}[/tex]

[tex]C'(t) = \frac{1}{3\cdot t^{2}+5}\cdot \left(1-\frac{6\cdot t^{2}}{3\cdot t^{2}+5} \right)[/tex]

Now we equalize the expression to zero:

[tex]\frac{1}{3\cdot t^{2}+5}\cdot \left(1-\frac{6\cdot t^{2}}{3\cdot t^{2}+5} \right) = 0[/tex]

[tex]1-\frac{6\cdot t^{2}}{3\cdot t^{2}+5} = 0[/tex]

[tex]\frac{3\cdot t^{2}+5-6\cdot t^{2}}{3\cdot t^{2}+5} = 0[/tex]

[tex]5-3\cdot t^{2} = 0[/tex]

[tex]t = \sqrt{\frac{5}{3} }\,h[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 1.291\,h[/tex]

The critical point occurs approximately at 1.291 hours after injection.

Second Derivative Test

The second derivative of the function is:

[tex]C''(t) = -\frac{6\cdot t}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{2}}-\frac{(12\cdot t)\cdot (3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{2}-2\cdot (3\cdot t^{2}+5)\cdot (6\cdot t)\cdot (6\cdot t^{2})}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{4}}[/tex]

[tex]C''(t) = -\frac{6\cdot t}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{2}}- \frac{12\cdot t}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{2}}+\frac{72\cdot t^{3}}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{3}}[/tex]

[tex]C''(t) = -\frac{18\cdot t}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{2}}+\frac{72\cdot t^{3}}{(3\cdot t^{2}+5)^{3}}[/tex]

If we know that [tex]t \approx 1.291\,h[/tex], then the value of the second derivative is:

[tex]C''(1.291\,h) = -0.077[/tex]

Which means that the critical point is an absolute maximum.

The time at which the concentration is highest is approximately 1.291 hours after injection.

What is an arithmetic sequence?

An arithmetic sequence is a kind of sequence of numbers where the difference of any two consecutive terms are the same.

This difference is known as the common difference of the sequence.

The given sequence is as below,

33, 25, 18, 12, …….

The difference between the consecutive terms is given as,

D₁ = 25 - 33

    = -8

D₂ = 18 - 25

     = -7

D₃ = 12 - 18

    = -6

It is clear that the difference between the consecutive terms are in arithmetic progression.

Thus, the next differences can be found as,

D₄ = -6 + 1

     = -5

D₅ = -5 + 1

    = -4  

And, D₆ = -4 + 1

             = -3

The next three terms of the sequence can be written as,

12 - 5 =7, 7 - 4 = 3, 3 - 3 = 0.

Hence, the next three terms of the given sequence are 7, 3 and 0.

Answers

Answer:

The closest equivalent of the ratio of a to c will be:

a/c=1.680

Step-by-step explanation:

As 'a' is 63% of x

so

[tex]a=0.63x[/tex]

As 'c' is 3/8 of x

so

c=3/8

Thus, the closest equivalent of the ratio of a to c will be:

a/c = (0.63x)/(3/8x)

      = 1.680

Therefore, the closest equivalent of the ratio of a to c will be:

a/c=1.680

Answer:

70.9,109.1,204.0,336.0

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution set for the equation 6sin² θ - 7 sinθ - 5 = 0 in the interval [0,360)is {θ∈ [0,360)∣θ = 230.48 ,309.521}

What is Trigonometry?

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between side lengths and angles of triangles.

The given equation is 6sin² θ - 7 sinθ = 5

Lets arrange in an order

6sin² θ - 7 sinθ - 5 = 0

a=6, b=-7 and c = -5

sinθ = 7±√49+120/12

Simplifying under the square root:

sinθ =7±17/12

Taking the positive solution first

sinθ =24/12

sinθ =2 (Not valid)

Now let's try the negative solution:

sinθ =7-17/12

sinθ =-10/12

sinθ =-5/6

θ= sin⁻¹(-5/6)

θ= −50.48⁰ ,−129.52⁰

we need to restrict our solution to the given interval [0,360), so we add 360 degrees to the negative angle:

θ=360−50.48 = 309.52 and 360 −129.52 =230.48

Therefore, the solution set for the equation 6sin² θ - 7 sinθ - 5 = 0 in the interval [0,360)is {θ∈ [0,360)∣θ = 230.48 ,309.521}
