A seat on a Ferris wheel is level with the center of the wheel. The diameter of the wheel is 210 feet (ft). If the wheel

frutty [35]

Answer:

The change in the height of the seat of the Ferris wheel is a reduction in height of approximately 74.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The position of the seat on the Ferris wheel = The center level of the wheel

The diameter of the Ferris wheel = 210 feet

The angle of rotation of the wheel = 45° counterclockwise

The height of a point on the Ferris wheel is given by the relation;

h = A·cos(b·x + c) + d

With regards to the question, we have;

h = The height of the seat of the Ferris wheel

A = The amplitude = 1/2 × The diameter of the wheel = 210/2 = 105 feet

360/b = The period

c = The phase shift = 90°

d = The mid line = 0

For a rotation of 45° counterclockwise or-45° clockwise, we have;

b·x = 45°, therefore;

h = 105 × cos(45° + 90°) + 0 = 105 × cos(135°) + 0

h = 105 × cos(135°) ≈ -74.25 feet

Therefore, the height of the seat of the Ferris wheel reduces by 74.246 feet.

What is the range of the function below in set builder notation? y=|x-3|

Kisachek [45]

Answer: $\{y | \ y \in \mathbb{R}, \ y \ge 0\}$

This translates to "y is any real number such that it is 0 or larger".

The reasoning is that the result of any absolute value function is either 0 or positive. In other words, we'll never get a negative result of an absolute value function. This is due to how absolute value represents distance. Negative distance does not make sense.

So if y = |x-3| then y = 0 is the smallest output possible. We could have any positive output we want.

In terms of a graph (see below), the V shape is at the lowest point (3,0). The y coordinate is all we care about in terms of finding the range. So we see the lowest y value is y = 0.
