A bridge on a river is modeled by the equation h = -0.2d^2 + 2.25d, where h is the height and d is the horizontal distance. For

cleaning and maintenance purposes a worker wants to tie a taut rope on two ends of the bridge so that he can slide on the rope. The rope is at an angle defined by the equation -d + 6h = 21.77. If the rope is attached to the bridge at points A and B, such that point B is at a higher level than point A, at what distance from the ground level is point A?

We are given the equations
h = -0.2d² + 2.25d
-d + 6h = 21.77

Solving for d in the second equation:
-d + 6h = 21.77
d = 6h - 21.77
Substituting to the first equation:
h = -0.2(6h - 21.77)² + 2.25(6h - 21.77)
The value of h can then be solved with is
h = 3.9968
so
d = 2.2108

defon

Answer:

S=32.5

W=97.5

Step-by-step explanation:

S=speed of plane in still air

W=speed of wind

-----------------------------------------

3(S+W)=130

6(S-W)=130

-----------------------------------------

S+W=43.33333...

S-W=21.66666...

2S=64.999...

S=32.5(simplified)

-----------------------------------------

32.5+W=130

W=97.5

-----------------------------------------
