Answer: 19.47°

Step-by-step explanation:

In solving problems like this, it's best to work on a diagram (see attached image). First, given the angle formed by the ramp and the length of the ramp, we can apply the properties of right triangles and recall that 

Hence, we have

Now that we have the window's height, we can compute for the angle, θ, if the ramp has a length of 15.

Therefore, for the 15-foot ramp to reach the window, the ramp must form an angle of 19.47°.

Answer: 19.47°

quester [9]

Answer:

<h2>5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (8x² −15x)−(x² −27x) = ax² +bx, we are to determine the value of b-a. Before we determine the vwlue of b-a, we need to first calculate for the value of a and b from the given expression.

On expanding the left hand side of the expression we have;

= (8x² −15x)−(x² −27x)

Open the paranthesis

= 8x² −15x−x²+27x

collect the like terms

= 8x²−x²+27x −15x

=  7x²+12x

Comparing the resulting expression with ax²+bx

7x²+12x =  ax²+bx

7x² = ax²

a = 7

Also;

12x = bx

b =12

The value of b - a = 12 - 7

b -a = 5

Hence the value of b-a is equivalent to 5

The function A=A_oe^{-0.01155x} A = A o e − 0.01155 x models the amount in pounds of a particular radioactive material stored in
vivado [14]

They are essentially asking us to solve:

357=900e^{-0.01155x} \implies\\ \frac{357}{900}=e^{-0.01155x} \implies\\ \ln{\frac{357}{900}}=-0.01155x \implies \\ x\approx 80.1

Solving this equation for x tells us that it will take around 80.1 years for the materials in the vault to reduce to 357 pounds.
