Answer:

Please see attached image for the sketch with the labels.

Length "x" of the ramp = 11.70 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the geometry to represent the ramp is a right angle triangle, for which we know one of its acute angles (20^o), and the size of the side opposite to it (4 ft). Our unknown is the hypotenuse "x" of this right angle triangle, which is the actual ramp length we need to find.

For this, we use the the "sin" function of an angle in the triangle, which is defined as the quotient between the side opposite to the angle, divided by the hypotenuse, and then solve for the unknown "x" in the equation:

sin(20^o)=\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}\\ sin(20^o)=\frac{4}{x} \\x=\frac{4}{sin(20^o)} \\x=11.695\,\,ft

Therefore the length of the ramp rounded to the nearest hundredth as requested is: 11.70 ft

Prove the following by induction. In each case, n is apositive integer.<br> 2^n ≤ 2^n+1 - 2^n-1 -1.
frutty [35]
<h2>Answer with explanation:</h2>

We are asked to prove by the method of mathematical induction that:

2^n\leq 2^{n+1}-2^{n-1}-1

where n is a positive integer.

  • Let us take n=1

then we have:

2^1\leq 2^{1+1}-2^{1-1}-1\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 2^2-2^{0}-1\\\\i.e.\\2\leq 4-1-1\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 4-2\\\\i.e.\\\\2\leq 2

Hence, the result is true for n=1.

  • Let us assume that the result is true for n=k

i.e.

2^k\leq 2^{k+1}-2^{k-1}-1

  • Now, we have to prove the result for n=k+1

i.e.

<u>To prove:</u>  2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-1

Let us take n=k+1

Hence, we have:

2^{k+1}=2^k\cdot 2\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2\cdot (2^{k+1}-2^{k-1}-1)

( Since, the result was true for n=k )

Hence, we have:

2^{k+1}\leq 2^{k+1}\cdot 2-2^{k-1}\cdot 2-2\cdot 1\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{k-1+1}-2\\\\i.e.\\\\2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-2

Also, we know that:

-2

(

Since, for n=k+1 being a positive integer we have:

2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}>0  )

Hence, we have finally,

2^{k+1}\leq 2^{(k+1)+1}-2^{(k+1)-1}-1

Hence, the result holds true for n=k+1

Hence, we may infer that the result is true for all n belonging to positive integer.

i.e.

2^n\leq 2^{n+1}-2^{n-1}-1  where n is a positive integer.
