Answer:

57.2\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula of slope is "rise over run", where the "rise" (means change in y, up or down) and the "run" (means change in x, left or right)

In this problem

The tangent of angle of 5 degrees is equal to the quotient of "rise over run"

Let

y ----> the rise of the ramp

x ----> the run of the ramp

tan(5^o)=\frac{y}{x}

we have

y=5\ ft

substitute and solve for x

tan(5^o)=\frac{5}{x}

x=\frac{5}{tan(5^o)}

x=57.2\ ft

Answer:

RADIUS

==================================

PROBLEM

Mary’s bicycle wheel has a circumference of 226.08 cm². What is its radius?

SOLUTION

We can solve this problem using the circumference formula in which π stands for ( 3.14 ), C stands for circumference itself and r stands for radius.

\bold{Formula \: || \: C = 2πr}Formula∣∣C=2πr

\tt{226.08 = 2(3.14) r}226.08=2(3.14)r

'Now to find the radius,Substitute 226.08 for c which is circumference in the formula.

\begin{gathered} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \tt{C = 2πr} \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \tt{226.08 = 2(3.14)\red{r}} \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \large \tt{ \frac{226.08}{6.28} = \cancel\frac{6.28 \red{r}}{6.28} } \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \boxed{\tt\green{C = 36}}\end{gathered}

C=2πr

226.08=2(3.14)r

6.28

226.08

=

6.28

6.28r

C=36

To check:

\begin{gathered} \small\begin{array}{|c|}\hline \bold{circumference }\\ \\ \tt{C = 2πr} \\ \tt{C = 2(3.14) (36\:cm) } \\ \tt{C = 2(113.04\:cm) } \\ \underline{\tt \green{C = 226.08\:cm }} \\ \hline \end{array} \end{gathered}

circumference

C=2πr

C=2(3.14)(36cm)

C=2(113.04cm)

C=226.08cm

FINAL ANSWER

If Mary's Bicycle has a circumference of 226.08 cm then the radius is 36.

\boxed{ \tt \red{r = 36}}

r=36

Step-by-step explanation:

I would say you can distribute the money by saving $25 dollars for your medium and log term and $50 for your short term. Because you will eventually raise enough from your paycheck to get your laptop. Then, once you get your laptop you put more money to your other terms.
