A civil engineer must design a wheelchair-accessible ramp next to a set of steps leading up to a building. The height from the g

round to the top of the stairs is 2 ft. Based on ADA codes, the slope must be 1:12 or less. Slope is equal to the rise of the ramp divided by the run of the ramp. Using the ADA code, what is the minimum allowable length of the ramp base?

Answer:

24 ft

Explanation:

The inclined plane can be used to form a right-angle triangle with the slope of 1/12. Using the equation for slope, we can estimate the lowest possible length of the base of the ramp:

slope = height/ramp base

1/12 = 2/ramp base

Therefore: ramp base = 2*12 = 24 ft.

Thus, the lowest possible length of the base of the ramp is approximately 24 ft.

Let f(x) = x^2 - 5x +4 / x-1
Elenna [48]

Answer:

C. 3

Explanation:

You cannot divide by 0.

So plug in g(x) into f(x) in the denominator. The numerator is irrelevant so you don't need to worry about it.

Solve for what value of x will give you a denominator of 0.

I just eyeballed this and found that x=3 give you a denominator of 0.

or you can just plug in and check all the answer choice.

If a researcher was collecting data from the same group of 30 people from infancy through childhood, they would be using the ___
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

a. longitudinal

Explanation:

A longitudinal study examines a given group over a long period of time, so collecting data from the same group of 30 people over their lifetime certainly fits that definition.  It's more like an evolution study.

A cross-sectional compares different groups at the same point in time.  So, it's more like a survey.

A microgenetic is much focused in time, providing multiple data sets in a short time to examine rapid evolution of a subject.

An experimental study design will make interactions and experiments with the study group, while this is not the case here apparently, and experimental is usually for a much shorter period than a generation.

Answer:

1775–1830

U.S. Indian policy during the American Revolution was disorganized and largely unsuccessful. At the outbreak of the war, the Continental Congress hastily recruited Indian agents. Charged with securing alliances with Native peoples, these agents failed more often than they succeeded. They faced at least three difficulties. First, they had less experience with Native Americans than did the long-standing Indian agents of the British Empire. Second, although U.S. agents assured Indians that the rebellious colonies would continue to carry on the trade in deerskins and beaver pelts, the disruptions of the war made regular commerce almost impossible. Britain, by contrast, had the commercial power to deliver trade goods on a more regular basis. And third, many Indians associated the rebellious colonies with aggressive white colonists who lived along the frontier. Britain was willing to sacrifice these colonists in the interests of the broader empire (as it had done in the Proclamation of 1763), but for the colonies, visions of empire rested solely on neighboring Indian lands. Unable to secure broad alliances with Indian peoples, U.S. Indian policy during the Revolution remained haphazard, formed by local officials in response to local affairs.
