Through a time, distance and speed optimization problem, we find the least amount of time to reach the house is approximately 2.11 hours. The person should land the boat 2 miles from the house.

The problem given is a classic time, distance and speed optimization problem which can be solved with a bit of calculus and geometric reasoning. The first step is to define variables. Let's say the person decides to row to a point x miles down the shore, and then walk the remaining distance.

The time taken to row is the distance rowed divided by the rowing speed, and since the rowing distance is the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed, it is sqrt(4+[tex]x^2[/tex]) miles. Hence, time rowing is sqrt(4+[tex]x^2[/tex])/3 hours.

The distance walked is 6-x and hence, the time walking is (6-x)/5 hours.

The total time is then T(x)=sqrt(4+[tex]x^2[/tex])/3+(6-x)/5. The task is to find an x that minimizes T(x). To do so, take the derivative of T(x), set it equal to 0 and solve for x. After conducting these steps, you find that the minimum time is attained at x=2. Therefore, the least amount of time required would be T(2) which is approximately 2.11 hours. The person should land the rowboat 2 miles from the house.

Final answer:

The function y = sin x + 1 is neither even nor odd because it does not satisfy the conditions f(x) = f(-x) for even functions and f(-x) = -f(x) for odd functions after substitution and simplification.

Explanation:

An even function is defined as a function that satisfies the condition f(x) = f(-x), showing symmetry about the y-axis. An odd function, on the other hand, satisfies the condition f(-x) = -f(x), indicating symmetry about the origin. To determine if y = sin x + 1 is an odd or even function, we must check these conditions.

Applying the even function definition, we would expect sin(-x) + 1 = sin(x) + 1 which is not true because sin(-x) = -sin(x) and thus does not satisfy the required symmetry. When we apply the odd function test, we expect -(sin x + 1) = sin(-x) + 1, which also doesn't hold because -sin(x) - 1 does not equal sin(-x) + 1. Therefore, y = sin x + 1 is neither odd nor even.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the angle measured in radians for an arc that is 1 kilometre long is [tex]\({\theta = \frac{360}{\pi^2}}\)[/tex] radians.

To find the angle measure of an arc in radians, we use the formula:

[tex]\[ \text{Angle in radians} = \frac{\text{Arc length}}{\text{Radius}} \][/tex]

Given that the diameter of the circle is 8 kilometres, we can find the radius by dividing the diameter by 2:

[tex]\[ \text{Radius} = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} = \frac{8 \text{ km}}{2} = 4 \text{ km} \][/tex]

The arc length is given as [tex]\(\pi\)[/tex] kilometres. Now we can calculate the angle in radians subtended by the arc:

[tex]\[ \theta = \frac{\text{Arc length}}{\text{Radius}} = \frac{\pi \text{ km}}{4 \text{ km}} = \frac{\pi}{4} \][/tex]

However, this is not the final answer. We need to find the angle measured in degrees. To convert radians to degrees, we use the conversion factor:[tex]\[ 1 \text{ radian} = \frac{180}{\pi} \text{ degrees} \][/tex]

Thus, the angle in degrees is:

[tex]\[ \theta_{\text{degrees}} = \theta_{\text{radians}} \times \frac{180}{\pi} = \frac{\pi}{4} \times \frac{180}{\pi} = \frac{180}{4} = 45 \text{ degrees} \][/tex]

Now, we need to find the angle measured in radians that correspond to an arc length of 1 kilometre. Using the same formula:

[tex]\[ \theta_{\text{1 km}} = \frac{1 \text{ km}}{4 \text{ km}} = \frac{1}{4} \text{ radians} \][/tex]

To find the number of radians in the entire circle, we multiply by [tex]\(2\pi\)[/tex](since the circumference is [tex]\(2\pi r\)[/tex] and the radius is 4 km):

[tex]\[ \text{Full circle in radians} = 2\pi \times 4 \text{ km} = 8\pi \text{ radians} \][/tex]

Now, we want to find how many times the arc length of 1 km fits into the full circle's circumference:

[tex]\[ \text{Number of arcs} = \frac{8\pi \text{ radians}}{1/4 \text{ radians}} = 32\pi \][/tex]

This represents the number of times the 1 km arc goes around the circle, which is also the measure of the angle in radians that corresponds to a 1 km arc. Since the full circle is [tex]\(360\)[/tex] degrees, the angle measured in degrees for the 1 km arc is:

[tex]\[ \theta_{\text{1 km degrees}} = 32\pi \times \frac{180}{\pi} = 32\pi \times \frac{360}{2\pi} = 32 \times 180 = 5760 \text{ degrees} \][/tex]

However, this is not the final answer. We made a mistake in the calculation. We should not multiply the number of arcs by the full circle's degrees. Instead, we should divide the full circle's degrees by the number of arcs to find the angle measure for one arc:

[tex]\[ \theta_{\text{1 km degrees}} = \frac{360}{32\pi} = \frac{360}{\pi} \times \frac{1}{32} = \frac{360}{\pi^2} \times \frac{\pi}{32} = \frac{360}{\pi^2} \text{ degrees} \][/tex]

To convert this back to radians, we multiply by [tex]\(\frac{\pi}{180}\)[/tex]:

[tex]\[ \theta_{\text{1 km radians}} = \frac{360}{\pi^2} \times \frac{\pi}{180} = \frac{360}{\pi^2} \text{ radians} \][/tex]

This is the angle measured in radians for an arc that is 1 kilometre long.

Answer:

Jon eats 2 apples; Jon eats more than 2 apples.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutually exclusive events are events which have no common element between them.  They are completely disjoint and the intersection would be a null set

Hence probability for the intersection of mutually exclusive events =0

Here we are given 4 options to select.

Jon eats more than 1 apple; Jon eats 3 apples.

These two are not mutually exclusive as eating 3 apples includes eating 1 apple.

Jon eats 4 apples; Jon eats 1 apple.

These two are not mutually exclusive as eating 4 apples includes eating 1 apple.

Jon eats 2 apples; Jon eats more than 2 apples.

These two are mutually exclusive since he cannot eat 2 applies exactly and also more than 2 apples

Jon eats 2 apples; Jon eats 4 apples.

These  two are not mutually exclusive as eating 4 apples includes eating 2 apple.

Hence correct answer is

Jon eats 2 apples; Jon eats more than 2 apples.

Final answer:

The ratio of surface area to volume for the square prism is 4/9 when b = 12 ft and h = 18 ft.

Explanation:

The expression for the ratio of surface area to volume of the square prism is 2b + 4h/bh. To find the ratio when b = 12 ft and h = 18 ft, substitute these values into the expression.

Ratio = 2(12) + 4(18)/(12)(18)

= 24 + 72/216

= 96/216

= 4/9

Therefore, the ratio of surface area to volume for the given square prism is 4/9 when b = 12 ft and h = 18 ft.

The ratio of surface area to volume for a square prism with a base of 12 ft and a height of 18 ft is calculated using the formula 2b + 4h / bh, which results in a ratio of 4 / 9 ft⁻¹.

The student has asked to find the ratio of surface area to volume for a square prism when given specific dimensions. The formula provided is 2b + 4h / bh, where b is the base length and h is the height of the prism. To find the ratio for b = 12 ft and h = 18 ft, we substitute these values into the formula:

Ratio = (2 × 12 ft) + (4 × 18 ft) / (12 ft × 18 ft) =
24 ft + 72 ft / 216 ft² =
96 ft / 216 ft².

After performing the calculations, we simplify the expression to get the ratio:

Ratio = 96 ft / 216 ft² = 4 / 9 ft⁻¹.

Thus, the ratio of surface area to volume for a square prism with a base of 12 ft and a height of 18 ft is 4 / 9 ft⁻¹.

We are given transformation rule

(x, y) --> (x + 4, y + 7).

The coordinate of the pre-image is (4,5).

The coordinate of the transformed image is (0,-2).

Please see, if we apply

(x, y) --> (x + 4, y + 7) rule.

(4,5) coordinate would become (4 +4 , 5+7 ) = (8,12).

But we need (0,-2) instead of (8,12).

Let us reverse operation in the given rule and check.

Let us change (x + 4, y + 7)  to (x-4, y-7) and now check.

(4,5) coordinate would become (4-4 , 5-7) = (0,-2).

So, we got exact coordinate of the transformed image.

Therefore, error was

(x, y) --> (x + 4, y + 7) rule should be (x, y) --> (x - 4, y - 7) rule.

Transformation involves changing the position of a point.

John's error is that, he subtracted the points instead of adding them.

The pre-image is given as:
