The formula for gravitational force is F = G * m1 * m2 / r². The gravitational constant is G = 6.67 * 10^(-11) m³/kgs². Thus, we find r = sqrt(G * m1 * m2 / F) = sqrt(6.67 * 10^(-11) m³/kgs² * 1.3 * 10^(22) kg * 1.6 * 10^(21) / 3.61 * 10^(18) N) = sqrt(3.84 * 10^(14)) = 1.96 * 10^(7) m, which is approximately 2 * 10^(7) m.

To solve the equation 3x^2-4x=0 graphically, Amber will begin by plotting the graph of y=4x, and the x-coordinate points where the graphs intersect will provide the solutions.

Answer:

a) y = 7.74*x + 7.5

b)  y = 1.148*x + 6.036

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

                                  f(x) = 6 - 10*x^2

                                  g(x) = 8 - (x-2)^2

Find:

(a) The equation of the line with the LARGEST slope that is tangent to both graphs is

(b) The equation of the second line tangent to both graphs is:

Solution:

- First, let's calculate the derivatives for the two functions provided:

                                f'(x) = -20*x

                                g'(x) = -2*(x-2)

- Given that the derivatives of both functions are dependent on the x-value, we will pick a common point x_o for both f(x) and g(x). This point is ( x_o, g(x_o)). Thus,

                                g'(x_o) = -2*(x_o - 2)

- Next, we will determine the slope of a line that is tangent to both graphs at point (x_o, g(x_o) ) on g(x) and at ( x, f(x) ) on f(x):

                                m = (g(x_o) - f(x)) / (x_o - x)

                                m = (8 - (x_o-2)^2 - 6 + 10*x^2) / (x_o - x)

                                m = (8 - (x_o^2 - 4*x_o + 4) - 6 + 10*x^2)/(x_o - x)

                                m = ( 8 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o -4 -6 +10*x^2) /(x_o - x)

                                m = ( -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) /(x_o - x)

- Now we need to set the slope from our equation equal to the derivatives we calculated earlier for each function:

                                m = f'(x) = g'(x_o)

- We will work through the first expression:

                                m = f'(x)

                                ( -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) /(x_o - x) = -20*x

Eq 1.                          (-2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) = -20*x*x_o + 20*x^2

And,

                              m = g'(x_o)

                              ( -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2) /(x_o - x) = -20*x

                              -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o + 10*x^2 = -2(x_o - 2)(x_o - x)

Eq 2                       -2 - x_o^2 + 4*x_o+ 10*x^2 = -2(x_o^2 - x_o*(x + 2) + 2*x)

- Now we can subtract the two equations (Eq 1 - Eq 2):

                              -20*x*x_o + 20*x^2 + 2*x_o^2 - 2*x_o*(x + 2) + 4*x = 0

                              -22*x*x_o + 20*x^2 + 2*x_o^2 - 4*x_o + 4*x = 0

- Rearranging gives us:       20*x^2 - 20*x*x_o - 2*x*x_o + 2*x_o^2 - 4*x_o + 4*x = 0

                              20*x*(x - x_o) - 2*x_o*(x - x_o) + 4*(x - x_o) = 0

                               (x - x_o)(20*x - 2*x_o + 4) = 0  

                               x = x_o,     x_o = 10x + 2    

- For x_o = 10x + 2,

                               (g(10*x + 2) - f(x))/(10*x + 2 - x) = -20*x

                                (8 - 100*x^2 - 6 + 10*x^2)/(9*x + 2) = -20*x

                                (-90*x^2 + 2) = -180*x^2 - 40*x

                                90*x^2 + 40*x + 2 = 0  

- Now solving the above quadratic equation:

                                 x = -0.0574, -0.387      

- The maximum slope occurs at x = -0.387, with the line’s equation being:

                                  y - 4.502 = -20*(-0.387)*(x + 0.387)

                                  y = 7.74*x + 7.5          

- The second tangent line is:

                                  y - 5.97 = 1.148*(x + 0.0574)

                                  y = 1.148*x + 6.036

The required scale for the map is 4 inches. To fit the brochure, we start from the given dimensions: the length of the rectangular park is 4 inches and the breadth is 6 inches. The area can be calculated with the formula for the area of a rectangle: Area = length × breadth, which results in 24 square inches. To achieve the desired area of 6 square inches, we determine the necessary scale as 24 divided by 6, yielding 4 inches.
