Answer:

The equation that can be used to determine the maximum height is given as h = 15tan4.76°

Step-by-step explanation:

The question given is lacking an information. Here is the correct question.

"By law, a wheelchair service ramp may be inclined no more than 4.76 degrees. If the base of the ramp begins 15 feet from the base of a public building, which equation could be used to determine the maximum height, h, of the ramp where it reaches the building's entrance"

The whole set up will give us a right angled triangle with the base of the building serving as the adjacent side of the triangle and the height h serving as the opposite side since it is facing the angle 4.76°

The side of the wheelchair service ramp is the hypotenuse.

Given theta = 4.76°

And the base of the building = adjacent = 15feet

We can get the height of the building using the trigonometry identity SOH CAH TOA.

Using TOA

Tan(theta) = opposite/Adjacent

Tan 4.76° = h/15

h = 15tan4.76°

The equation that can be used to determine the maximum height is given as h = 15tan4.76°

For this case we have the following expression:

(\frac {-27x ^ 0 * y ^ {- 2}} {54x ^ {- 5} * y ^ {- 4}}) ^ {- 2} =

By definition we have to:

a^0= 1

So:

(\frac {-27y ^ {- 2}} {54x ^ {- 5} * y ^ {- 4}}) ^ {- 2} =

Simplifying:

(\frac {-y ^ {- 2}} {2x ^ {- 5} * y ^ {- 4}}) ^ {- 2} =

By definition of power properties we have to:

(a ^ n) ^ m = a ^ {n * m}

So, rewriting the expression we have:

\frac {-y ^ {- 2 * -2}} {4x ^ {- 5 * -2} * y ^ {- 4 * -2}} =\\\frac {-y ^ {4}} {4x ^ {10} * y ^ {8}} =

SImplifying:

\frac {-y ^ {4-8}} {4x ^ {10}} =\\\frac {-y ^ {- 4}} {4x ^ {10}} =\\- \frac {1} {4x ^ {10} y^ {4}}

Answer:

- \frac {1} {4x ^ {10} y ^ {4}}

GalinKa [24]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:For the student to be considered for the tutoring or extension activities, his/her score must be 20 points lower or higher than the average.


The average is given as 105, that means:


Minimum score to be considered = 105 - 20 = 85


Maximum score to be considered = 105 + 20 = 125


If p represents the performance of a student, then this inequality will be represented as follows:


                    85 ≤ p ≤125
