Ответ:
-0.69 feet per second
Step-by-step explanation:
We have dx/dt = 2 ft/sec, and we want to determine dy/dt.
x and y are related by the Pythagorean Theorem.
x²+y²=16²
Differentiate both sides of this equation with respect to t to get
Divide both sides by 2y
When x = 5 ft, we have
x²+y²=16²
5²+y²=256
y²=256-25=231
therefore
y=![\sqrt{213}](/tpl/images/0559/7754/0d565.png)
=-0.69
The top of the ladder is sliding down (because of the negative sign in the result) at a rate of -0.69 feet per second.
Ответ:
A parallel line would contain the same slope and have a different y-intercept.
Using the slope of the original line you would start with:
Y = -5x + b, where b is the new y-intercept.
Using the given point replace x and y and solve for b:
-9 = -5(-4) + b
Simplify:
-9 = 20 + b
Subtract 20 from both sides
-29 = b
Now replace b in the equation to get:
Y = -5x -29
