A 100-foot ramp is tilted at a 45° angle. How high is the top of the ramp from the ground?

1 answer:

4 0

Setting up a right triangle, the 100 would be the hypotenuse, the 45 would be the angle of elevation, and you're looking for the opposite side.
Sin 45 = x/100
100sin45 = x
100 * ✓(2)/2 = x
50 ✓2 =x
x = 50✓2 ft

Clara has a garden that is 7 feet wide and 4 feet long she has 30 tomato plants to put in the garden each plant needs one square

ankoles [38]

A = L * W
A = 7 * 4
A = 28 sq ft....this is the area of her garden

and if each plant uses 1 sq ft, then there will be (30 - 28) = 2 plants leftover

Using mathematical induction prove whether or not the following statement is true for all positive integers n, or show why it is

aniked [119]

Base case: For $n=1$ , the left side is 2 and the right is $2\cdot1^2=2$ , so the base case holds.

Induction hypothesis: Assume the statement is true for $n=k$ , that is

$2+6+10+\cdots+4k-2=2k^2$

We want to show that this implies truth for $n=k+1$ , that

$2+6+10+\cdots+4k-2+4(k+1)-2=2(k+1)^2$

The first $k$ terms on the left reduce according to the assumption above, and we can simplify the $k+1$ -th term a bit:

$\underbrace{2+6+10+\cdots+4k-2}_{2k^2}+4k+2$

$2k^2+4k+2=2(k^2+2k+1)=2(k+1)^2$

so the statement is true for all $n\in\mathbb N$ .
