Which of the following is closest to the value of x?

2 answers:

5 0

By the Pythagorean theorem:

AC = √(AB²-BC²) = √(9²-4²) = √(81-16) = √65 ≈ 8
CD = √(BD²-BC²) = √(5²-4²) = √(25-16) = √9 = 3
x = AC - CD = 8 - 3 = 5

Answer: 5

A wheelchair ramp rises 1.5 feet for every 18 feet of horizontal distance it covers. Find the rate of change of the ramp

Ierofanga [76]

By definition the rate of change of a function is given by:
$AVR = \frac{Change In Y}{Change In X}$
Or equivalently:
$AVR = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}$
Substituting the values given in the problem we have:
$AVR = \frac{1.5}{18}$
Rewriting we have:
$AVR = 0.08$
Answer:
the rate of change of the ramp is:
$AVR = 0.08$
