We are tasked to solved for the length of the ramp having an inclination of 15 degrees with the ground and 10 feet from the end of the ramp to the base of the building of the ground. Using trigonometric properties, we have a formula given an angle and the its opposite sides which is,
sin(Angle)=opposite/hypothenuse
hypothenuse would be the distance or the length of the ramp.
so we have,
sin(15)=10/hypothenuse
Cross-multiply, we have,
hypothenuse=10/sin(15)
using scientific calculator having a DEG mode,
hypothenuse=38.63703
Rounding of in nearest tenth we get,
hypothenuse=38.6 ft
Therefore, the ramp is 38.6 ft long

The sum of 5 consecutive even numbers is 100. What is the first number in this sequence?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent this with an equation, where x is the first number. The next number must be x+2, because it has to be even, not x+1, and the rest continue the same way:

x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8) = 100

Solve for x.

5x+20 = 100

5x = 80

<u>x = 16</u>

Answer:

The three numbers are 341, 342, and 343

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 1026. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows:

(X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 1026

To solve for X, you first add the integers together and the X variables together. Then you subtract three from each side, followed by dividing by 3 on each side. Here is the work to show our math:

X + X + 1 + X + 2 = 1026

3X + 3 = 1026

3X + 3 - 3 = 1026 - 3

3X = 1023

3X/3 = 1023/3

X = 341

Which means that the first number is 341, the second number is 341 + 1 and the third number is 341 + 2. Therefore, three consecutive integers that add up to 1026 are 341, 342, and 343.

341 + 342 + 343 = 1026

We know our answer is correct because 341 + 342 + 343 equals 1026 as displayed above.
