You can put this solution on YOUR website!the wavelength(W) of a radio wave varies inversely as its frequency(F). A wave with a frequency of 200kHz has a length of 252m. What is the length of a wave with a frequency of 900kHz?
------------------
200*252 = k (a constant)
L*900 = k = 50400
L = 50400/900 = 56 meters
-----------------
-----------------
That's the answer given the data, but it's not correct.
The wavelength in meters is 300/f, f = frequency in Megahertz.
200 KHz = 0.2 MHz
300/0.2 = 1500 meters,
not 252 meters

Complex_Numbers/236214: Hello,
I'm to find the third roots of 343i written in polar form with arguments in radians. I don't know how to approach this one. Is it actually "0 + 343i"? If so, I find the absolute value to be 343. Then tan (b/a) = tan (343/0) which is undefined. How do I find the angles?

If so, I find the absolute value to be 343. Then tan (b/a) = tan (343/0) which is undefined. How do I find the angles?
--------------
It is 0 + 343i, and r = 343.
The angle is 90, but you don't need the tangent
z = 0 + 343i = 343cis90
--------
Cube roots are:
7cis30 = 7cis(pi/6) = 7cos(30) + 7isin(30) = 7sqrt(3)/3 + 3i/2
---------------------
Do these 2 the same way.
7cis150 = 7cis(5pi/6)
7cis270 = 7cis(2pi/3)

test/236229: An arrow is fired into the air with an initial valocity of 96ft/sec. The hieght of the arrow t seconds after it was shot into the air is given by s(t)=-16t^2 +96t. When should the arrow reach its greatest hieght. 1 solutions
Answer 173912 by Alan3354(30952) on 2009-11-07 16:39:06 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!s(t)=-16t^2 +96t
At the vertex, when t = -b/2a
t = -96/-32 = 3 seconds (time at max height)
t = 3
---------
s(3) = -16*9 + 96*3
s(3) = 144 feet max

Angles/236198: Four angles of a pentagon have measures 30, 60, 120, and 165. Find the measure of the fifth angle. 1 solutions

You can put this solution on YOUR website! Four angles of a pentagon have measures 30, 60, 120, and 165. Find the measure of the fifth angle.
-----------
The sum of the angles of any polygon with n sides is
180*(n-2)
A pentagon has 5 sides. 180*(3) = 540º
30 + 60 + 120 + 165 = 385º
The 5th angle is 540 - 385
= 155º

----------------
10 min = 1/6 hour
Joe goes 1 mile in 1/6 hour - he's one mile ahead.
----------------------
To overtake him in 20 minutes (1/3 hour) Ken has to go 3 mph faster (1 mile in 1/3 hour = 3 mph)
Ken has to go 9 mph

You can put this solution on YOUR website!1-2 + 3 -4 + ....-98 + 99 equals
a) -50 b) -49 c) 0 d) 49 e) 50
----------
There are 99 numbers
Pair them up:
1+99 = 100
-2-98 = -100
3+97 = 100
etc.
The pairs are alternately +100 and -100, until you get to -50. It has nothing to pair with, so the sum is
-50

Is that pi*t ?
The expression is not clear. It could be
(1/(pit)) - 5 - (3/pit) + 5
or 1/(pit-5) - 3/(pit+5), or some other combinations.
Use some parentheses, they're free.

The 2nd eqn is 7 times the 1st, so they're dependent.
1 eqn in 2 unknowns is a line, with an infinite number of solutions.

BTW, (7,7) is not a solution.

Coordinate-system/234865: what is the equation of the line that has a slope of 5 and passes through the point (4,-18)? 1 solutions
Answer 173866 by Alan3354(30952) on 2009-11-07 11:07:10 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!I just did one like this:
what is the equation of the line that has a slope of 3 and passes through the point (4,-18)?
------------------------
Use y = mx+b to find the y-intercept b
m is the slope
--------------
-18 = 3*4 + b
b = -6
------
--> y = 3x - 6

Trigonometry-basics/236032: Use the fact that the trigonometric functions are periodic to find the exact value of each expression. Do not use a calculator.
cos 33pi\4. 1 solutions
Answer 173862 by Alan3354(30952) on 2009-11-07 10:37:12 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!cos 33pi\4.
-------------
32pi/4 = 8pi which is 4 revolutions. Subtract that.
--> cos(pi/4) = sqrt(2)/2
I didn't use a calculator, I know that one.
It's 1/8 of a revolution, or 45º.
If you plot it on a unit circle, x and y are equal, and r is x*sqrt(2)
cos = x/r = sqrt(2)/2

You can put this solution on YOUR website!How long will it take for the population of a certain country to double if its annual growth rate is 3.5%? (Round to the nearest year.) Use the exponential growth model P(t) = P e kt.
--------------
Future P = P*e^kt
2*P = P*e^0.035t
2 = e^0.035t
ln(2) = 0.035t
t = ln(2)/0.035
t = 19.8 years ~ 20 years
