Answer:
Part A
The required wood for the ladder is 98 feet
Part B
The cost of the wood is 49,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Part A
The dimensions of the ladder to be made with wood are;
The distance between each step of ladder = 1 foot
The length of the ladder = 25 feet
The width of the ladder = 2 feet
The required wood = 2 × 25 feet/rail + 2 feet/steps × 24 steps = 98 feet
The required wood for the ladder = 98 feet
Part B
The cost of the wood = 500/foot × 98 feet = 49,000
The cost of the wood = 49,000
The slope definitions:
The
slope is the change in y divided by the change in x.
The
slope is the ratio of rise to run.
The
slope is the rate of change of the function at a certain point.
The
slope is the first derivative of a function.
The
slope is the tangent of the slant/inclined angle
So we are interested in this one: "The
slope is the ratio of rise to run"
Logically, the gas in the tank decreases as the distance traveled increases.
So they are inversely proportional.
Let's look at the scale of the axis now///
After examine, as we travel 20 miles, our gas in the tank decrease by 3 gallons...i.e. 3 gallons have been consumed to move this distance
I hope that
