The University of Central Florida is planning to build a new access ramp for wheelchairs at its education building. The main entrance to the building is 4 feet above the sidewalk level. The angle of elevation from where the ramp and sidewalk would meet is 8.1°. Determine the length of the ramp to the nearest tenth of a foot.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this question using the Trigonometric function of Tangent.

tan θ = Opposite/Adjacent.

Where:

Opposite = Height /Length of the ramp = ?

Adjacent = Distance from the base of the ramp = 4 feet

θ = 8.1°

Therefore,

tan 8.1° = x/4

Cross Multiply

x = tan 8.1 × 4

x = 0.5692843028 feet

Approximately = 0.6 feet

Length of the ramp = 0.6 feet.

Kiran read for x minutes,and Andre read for 5\8 more than that write an equation that relates the number of minutes Kiran read with y,then number of minutes that Andre read.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = \frac{5}{8} + x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Kiran = x[/tex]

[tex]Andre = y[/tex]

[tex]Andre = \frac{5}{8}\ minutes\ more[/tex]

Required

Write an equation that represents the scenario

[tex]Andre = \frac{5}{8}\ minutes\ more[/tex] means that Andre read 5/8 minutes more than Kiran and this can be represented as:

[tex]Andre = \frac{5}{8} + Kiran[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

p1(-3,2) p2(2,6)

find the slope of the line between these two points

m= 6-2 /2-(-3)

m=4/5

find the slope of the line between p2 and p3(8,-1)

m=-1-6 /8-2

m=-7 / 6

dist= sqrt( (8-(-3))^2+(-1-2)^2)

dist = 11.40175    (1 to 3)   hyp

dist = sqrt( (8-2)^2 + (-1-6)^2)

dist = 9.219544  (2 to 3)

dist = sqrt( (2-(-3))^2 + (6-2)^2)

dist = 6.403124 ( 1 to 2)

x = 1.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2.5(10x - 16) = 5 ( divide both sides by 2.5 )

10x = 18 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 1.8

A group of friends wants to go to the amusement park. They have no more than $165
to spend on parking and admission. Parking is $5.25, and tickets cost $17.75 per
person, including tax. Write and solve an inequality which can be used to determine
X, the number of people who can go to the amusement park.
Inequality:

Answers

Answer:

17.75x + 5.25 [tex]\leq[/tex] 165

x [tex]\leq[/tex] 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost can be represented by 17.75x + 5.25, where x is the number of people.

They can only spend a maximum of $165, so a less than or equal sign has to be used.

The inequality will be 17.75x + 5.25 [tex]\leq[/tex] 165

Now, solve for x:

17.75x + 5.25 [tex]\leq[/tex] 165

17.75x [tex]\leq[/tex] 159.75

x [tex]\leq[/tex] 9

So, x [tex]\leq[/tex] 9 is the answer, meaning 9 people or less can go to the amusement park.

m∠ABC=(6x+8)° and m∠DEF=(12x-8)°.
If ∠ABC and ∠DEF are supplementary,what
is the measure of each angle?

Answers

Answer:

m∠ABC = 68°

m∠DEF = 112°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles are angles that add up to 180 degrees (they form a straight line).

If ∠ABC and ∠DEF are supplementary, that means that they add up to 180. We can write this in an equation:

(6x + 8) + (12x - 8) = 180

Combine like terms.

18x = 180

Divide both sides by 18.

x = 10

Find the measure of each angle by substituting 10 for x into both expressions for the angles.

m∠ABC = (6x + 8)°

6(10) + 8 = 68°

m∠DEF = (12x - 8)°

12(10) - 8 = 112°
Answer :

→ (6x + 8) + (12x - 8) = 180°

→ 6x + 8 + 12x - 8 = 180°

→ 18x = 180°

→ x = 180 ÷ 18

→ x = 10°

Now, we are given that m∠ABC = (6x+8) just subsitute the value of x in it .

→ m∠ABC = (6x + 8)

→ m∠ABC = (6 × 10 + 8)

→ m∠ABC = 60 + 8

m∠ABC = 68°

Similarly, subsitute the value of x in m∠DEF = (12x - 8)° we get :

→ m∠DEF = (12x - 8)°

→ m∠DEF = (12 × 10 - 8)

→ m∠DEF = 120 - 8

m∠DEF = 112°

X +2 = 8

A teenager’s heart pumps an average of 7200 L of blood every 24 hours. What is the rate of change of volume of blood?

Answers

Answer:

300L per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change of volume of blood pumped by the teenager's heart expresses the volume of blood pumped with respect to hour.

Rate of change of volume of blood = [tex]\frac{volume of blood}{time}[/tex]

                           = [tex]\frac{7200L}{24}[/tex]

                           = 300L/hour

The rate of change of volume of blood by the teenager's heart is 300 litres per hour. This implies that his/ her heart pumps 300 litres of blood every hour.

What is the Mark the absolute minimum point of the graph

Answers

Answer:

is in the point x = 1, y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

The absolute minimum of a graph is the point that is the most far below the x-axis.

Such that if we draw a horizontal line parallel to this point, this line should not intersect the graph in another point. It is usually associated with the lowest value of the variable y.

In the graph, we can see that in the extremes we have dots, so the graph does not continue.

Then we can be sure that the absolute minimum is at the bottom of the large curve, that is in the point x = 1, y = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Shape 1: 22.365

Shape 2: 16.81

Shape 3: 83.16

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to start with 2, because its the easiest shape to do, which is 4.1*4.1= 16.81. Next is 3, which you find the length by adding 4.1 to 9.1 = 13.2. You then multiply 13.2 by 6.3 = 83.16. Finally for shape 1, you first find the bottom shape,  which you do by dividing 6.3 by 2 so you can get the width of half the triangle. That is 3.15. then you multiply that by 7.1 to get the area of 22.365.
