So check the picture below
if we check the solutions or zeros for the equation, we get

and as you can see in the picture, the value of "x" when y = 3.5, or the height of the truck is

the truck, ends up with a clearance of

on either side, so, the maximum clearance, the truck can have, those two clearances added together,
If you don't know the derivative of the inverse of sine, you can use implicit differentiation. Apply sine to both sides:

(true for <em>y</em> between -π/2 and π/2)
Now take the derivative of both sides and solve for it:




Hi!
See my image to see how I solved this.
The answer is b. the quotient has a remainder of 4
Hope this helps! :)

Pretend these are coordinates that you can use to find the slope of the line.
(10, 40) and (15, 60). Fit these into the slope formula to find the slope of the line you are looking for:

and the slope is 4. Now use one of the points and the slope of 4 to solve for b, the y-intercept:
40 = 4(10) + b so b = 0. The equation of the line then is y = 4x + 0 or just
y = 4x
This is the symbol for a segment bisector in geometry
Hope this helps!! :)
