The profile of the cables on a suspension bridge may be modeled by a parabola. The central span of a bridge is 1270 ft long and

157 ft high. The parabola y=0.00039x^2 gives a good fit to the shape of the cables, where IxI less than of equal to 635, and x and y are measured in feet. Approximate the length of the cables that stretch between the tops of the two towers.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

span of bridge L=1270\ ft

height of span h=157\ ft

Equation of Parabola

y=0.00039x^2

|x| i.e.

-635

\frac{dy}{dx}=2\times 0.00039

length of Arc=\int_{a}^{b}\sqrt{1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2}

=\int_{-635}^{635}\sqrt{1+(\frac{dy}{dx})^2}

=\int_{-635}^{635}\sqrt{1+(0.00078x)^2}

=2\times \int_{0}^{635}\sqrt{1+(0.00078x)^2}

=2\times (660.08)

=1320.16\ ft

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

$84.80

Step-by-step explanation:

find the difference between accurate price and written price: 74 - 47 = 27

find written total (before Mrs. Taylor found mistake) by undoing the mean calculation: 82.55 x 12 = $990.60

the total expenses is $27 more than what they thought: 990.60 + 27 = 1017.60

divide accurate total by 12 to find mean: 1017.60 / 12 = $84.80
