On a snow day, Mason created two snowmen in his backyard. Snowman A was built to a height of 51 inches and Snowman B was built to a height of 29 inches. The next day, the temperature increased and both snowmen began to melt. At sunrise, Snowman A's height decrease by 4 inches per hour and Snowman B's height decreased by 2 inches per hour. Let A(t) represent the height of Snowman A tt hours after sunrise and let B(t)B(t) represent the he ight of Snowman B tt hours after sunrise. Write the equation for each function and determine the interval of time, t, t, when Snowman A is taller than Snowman B.

Answer from: vane3152

A ( t ) = -4t + 51

B ( t ) = -2t + 29

t < 11 hours ... [ 0 , 11 ]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:-

- The height of snowman A, Ao = 51 in

- The height of snowman B, Bo = 29 in

Solution:-

- The day Mason made two snowmans ( A and B ) with their respective heights ( A(t) and B(t) ) will be considered as the initial value of the following ordinary differential equation.

- To construct two first order Linear ODEs we will consider the rate of change in heights of each snowman from the following day.

- The rate of change of snowman A's height ( A ) is:

$\frac{d h_a}{dt} = -4$

- The rate of change of snowman B's height ( B ) is:

$\frac{d h_b}{dt} = -2$

Where,

t: The time in hours from the start of melting process.

- We will separate the variables and integrate both of the ODEs as follows:

$\int {} \, dA= -4 * \int {} \, dt + c\\\\A ( t ) = -4t + c$

$\int {} \, dB= -2 * \int {} \, dt + c\\\\B ( t ) = -2t + c$

- Evaluate the constant of integration ( c ) for each solution to ODE using the initial values given: A ( 0 ) = Ao = 51 in and B ( 0 ) = Bo = 29 in:

$A ( 0 ) = -4(0) + c = 51\\\\c = 51$

$B ( 0 ) = -2(0) + c = 29\\\\c = 29$

- The solution to the differential equations are as follows:

A ( t ) = -4t + 51

B ( t ) = -2t + 29

- To determine the time domain over which the snowman A height A ( t ) is greater than snowman B height B ( t ). We will set up an inequality as follows:

A ( t ) > B ( t )

-4t + 51 > -2t + 29

2t < 22

t < 11 hours

- The time domain over which snowman A' height is greater than snowman B' height is given by the following notation:

[ 0 , 11 ]

Answer from: Quest

the length of o'p' is $1.5\times op$ .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

$k=\frac{o'p'}{op}$

the scale factor is 1.5.

$1.5=\frac{o'p'}{op}$

multiply both sides by op.

$1.5\times op=o'p'$

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is $1.5\times op$ .
