- VelocityThe speed of an airplane is 300 mi/h relative to the air. The wind is blowing due north with a speed of 30 mi/h. In what direction should the airplane head in order to arrive at a point due west of its location?arrow_forwardUse parametric equations to model the path of a rider on the wheel. You want to end up with parametric equations, using t, that will give you the position of the rider every minute of the ride. Graph your results on a graphing calculator. A Ferris wheel has a diameter of 197 feet and sits 8 feet above the ground. It rotates in a counterclockwise direction, making one complete revolution every 15 minutes. Place your coordinate system so that the origin of the coordinate system is on the ground below the bottom of the wheel.arrow_forwardHow do you complete the parametric equations?arrow_forward
- Determine the parametric equationarrow_forwardEquation below lists parametric equations. Find the area enclosed by the x-axis and the curve. y = -9t² +4 x = 3t,arrow_forwardRicardo hits a ball when it is 3 feet above the ground. The ball leaves the bat with an initial velocity of 28 ft/sec, at 55° angle. (a) Write a pair of parametric equations to simulate the motion of the ball. (Round to 3 decimal places) X = (b) Determine the rectangular equation that models the motion of the ball. * + = * y = , y = (c) What is the maximum height reached by the ball? (d) Determine the horizontal distance and the time covered when the ball hit the ground. Horizontal Distance: Time:arrow_forward
- FInd Parametric equations that model the trajectory of the baseballarrow_forwardA pair of parametric equations is given. x = 2t, y = t + 4 (a) Sketch the curve represented by the parametric equations. Use arrows to indicate the direction of the curve as t increases.arrow_forwardUse a graphing utility to graph the curve represented by the parametric equations. (Indicate the orientation of the curve.)arrow_forward
- Find two different parametric equations for rectangular equation. y= 2x2-8.arrow_forwardExplain parametric equations.arrow_forwarduse a graphing utility to graph the curve represented by the parametric equations (indicate the orientation of the curve). Eliminate the parameter and write the corresponding rectangular equationarrow_forward
