A bridge on a river is modeled by the equation h = -0.2d2 + 2.25d, where h is the height and d is the horizontal distance. For c

leaning and maintenance purposes a worker wants to tie a taut rope on two ends of the bridge so that he can slide on the rope. The rope is at an angle defined by the equation -d + 6h = 21.77. If the rope is attached to the bridge at points A and B, such that point B is at a higher level than point A, at what distance from the ground level is point A?

The answer is 2.2108
Solution:
first equation:
h = -0.2d² + 2.25d-d + 6h = 21.77
2nd equation:-d + 6h = 21.77d = 6h - 21.77
Then substitute:h = -0.2(6h - 21.77)² + 2.25(6h - 21.77)h = 3.9968
Answer:d = 2.2108

Answer:

Point A is approximately 4 unit above the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

A bridge on a river is modeled by the equation h = -0.2d² + 2.25d -------(1)

Where h is the height and d is the horizontal distance.

For cleaning and maintenance purpose a worker wants to tie a taut a rope on two ends of the bridge so that he can slide on the rope.

The rope is at an angle defined by the equation

-d + 6h = 21.77

d - 6h = -21.77

d = 6h - 21.77 -------(2)

Now we have to find the value of h which is the distance from the ground level.

Now we substitute d from equation 2 to equation 1

h = -0.2(6h - 21.77)²+ 2.25(6h - 21.77)

h = -0.2(36h²+ 473.9329 - 261.24h) + 13.5h - 48.9825

h = -(7.2h² + 94.79 - 52.25h) + 13.5h - 48.98

h = -7.2h² - 94.79 + 52.25h + 13.5h - 48.98

h = -7.2h² + 65.75h - 143.77

0 = -7.2h² + 65.75h - h - 143.77

0 = -7.2h² + 64.75h - 143.77

7.2h²- 64.75h + 143.77 = 0

Now we divide the equation by 7.2

h² - 9h + 20 = 0

h² - 5h - 4h + 20 = 0

h(h - 5) - 4(h - 5) = 0

(h - 4)(h - 5) = 0

h = 4 or 5

Therefore, point A is approximately 4 unit above the ground.

hey is this from ncert textbook well.i know it

so question is y²-(-5y²)

it will be. y²+5y² (minus minus will become plus)

it will be then 1y²+5y² (y² will be 1y²)

so total will be 6y²

To divide the sector into two congruent sectors we can use the _________________ construction. A) angle bisector B) copy and ang
12345 [234]

Answer:

Option A) angle bisector

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle Bisector:

  • An angle bisector is a line that divides an angle into two equal parts.
  • The angle bisector divide the angle in two equal parts.
  • An angle bisector is equidistant from the sides of the angle when measured along a segment perpendicular to the sides of the angle.
  • It cuts the angle into half.
  • Thus, a sector can be divided into two equal sectors by drawing an angle bisector.

To divide the sector into two congruent sectors we can use the angle bisector construction.

Thus, the correct answer is

Option A) angle bisector
