A steady wind blows a kite due west The kites height above g
A steady wind blows a kite due west. The kite\'s height above ground from horizontal position x = 0 to x = 100 ft is given by
y = 150 ? (1/40)(x ? 50)^2.
Find the distance traveled by the kite. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
y = 150 ? (1/40)(x ? 50)^2.
Find the distance traveled by the kite. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
Solution
integral(150-(1/40)(x-50)^2)dx from x=0 to 100 =38750/3
