Answer:

2824

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the number of pounds and divide by the number of people:

3.474×10⁹ / 1.23×10⁶

Divide the coefficients and subtract the exponents:

(3.474 / 1.23) × 10⁹⁻⁶

2.824×10³

So the country produced about 2,824 pounds of garbage per person in 2005.

Derive the equation of the parabola with the focus <br> is (-7,5) and the directrix of y=-11
Volgvan
So, notice, the focus point is at -7, 5, and the directrix is at y = -11.

keep in mind that the vertex is half-way between those two fellows, and the distance from the vertex to either one of them is "p" units, check the picture below.

with that focus point and that directrix, the half-way over the axis of symmetry will be -7, -3, that's where the vertex is at, and notice the distance "p", is 8 units.

since the parabola is opening upwards, "p" is positive 8.

\bf \textit{parabola vertex form with focus point distance}\\\\&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;4p(x- h)=(y- k)^2&#10;\\\\&#10;\boxed{4p(y- k)=(x- h)^2}&#10;\end{array}&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;vertex\ ( h, k)\\\\&#10; p=\textit{distance from vertex to }\\&#10;\qquad \textit{ focus or directrix}&#10;\end{array}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;h=-7\\&#10;k=-3\\&#10;p=8&#10;\end{cases}\implies 4(8)[y-(-3)]=[x-(-7)]^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;32(y+3)=(x+7)^2\implies y+3=\cfrac{1}{32}(x+7)^2&#10;\\\\\\&#10;y=\cfrac{1}{32}(x+7)^2-3

Answer:

Distance of ladder top from ground = 9.2 meter (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Angle of elevation between ground and ladder = 43°

Length of ladder = 13.5 meter

Find:

Distance of ladder top from ground

Computation:

Length of ladder = Hypotenuse

Distance of ladder top from ground = Perpendicular

Sinθ = Perpendicular / Hypotenuse

Sin 43 = Distance of ladder top from ground / Length of ladder

0.6819 = Distance of ladder top from ground / 13.5

Distance of ladder top from ground = 9.20565

Distance of ladder top from ground = 9.2 meter (Approx.)
