The water sprinkler, which is located at the base of a hill, emits a spray of water with a velocity of 15 feet per second, as illustrated. Determine the position B(x, y) on the hill where the water strikes the ground. Assume that the hill is characterized by the equation y = (0.05x^2) ft and disregard the sprinkler size.
a.) x,y = 5.15 ft, 1.33 ft
b.) x,y = 2.31 ft, 2.13 ft
c.) x,y = 4 ft, 3 ft
d.) x,y = 5 ft, 2.42 ft

- A surveyor measures the distance across a straight river by the following method: Starting directly across from a tree on the opposite bank, he walks x- 110 m along the riverbank to establish a baseline. Then he sights across to the tree. The angle from his baseline to the tree is 0 = 31.2°. How wide is the river? y =arrow_forwardExplain the difference between a rate of change that is positive and one that is negative. Give an example of each. O Consider the ordered pair (x, y) where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable. If y increases with the increase in x, then the rate of change of y is positive. Whereas, if y decreases as x increases, then the rate of change is negative. For example, if you consider the speed of a car (y) over time (x), as the car accelerates, the speed increases with increasing time, and the rate of change of its speed is positive. When the car brakes, the rate of change of its speed is negative, because the speed decreases over time. Consider the ordered pair (x, y) where x is the independent variable and y is the dependent variable. If y increases with a decrease in x, then the rate of change of y is positive. Whereas, if y decreases as x decreases, then the rate of change is negative.

- Create a C++ program for managing a grocery store's Inventory system. The Inventory information is stored in a text file named "grocery inventory.txt." Each line in the file represents a grocery item with the following format: "SKU, Name, Category, Quantity Price" The program should allow the user to add new items, update the quantity of existing Items, and display the total value of the inventory. Ensure that the program checks for the existence of "grocery inventory.txt" and handles cases where the file is empty. Utilize functions to organize your code effectively, with comments explaining each function's purpose. You can use data structures like arrays or structs to store and manipulate inventory data. The program should output the updated inventory information to a file named "updated_grocery_Inventory.txt." Ex: grocery Inventory.txt: 101, Apples, Fruits, 50, 0.75 102, Bread, Bakery, 20, 2.50 103, Milk, Dairy, 30, 3.99 (updated grocery inventory.txt after adding 100 packs of Eggs…arrow_forwardVector A A→ has a magnitude of 23.0 mm and makes an angle of 30 degrees above the positive x axis.
