Answer:

6852 feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer the attached figure

The chairlift at a ski resort rises a total of 2600 feet from where it starts. i.e.AB = 2600 feet

The angle of elevation is about 22.3 degrees.i.e.∠ACB= 22.3°

We are supposed to find  How far do riders travel on the lift i.e.AC

In ΔABC

We will use trigonometric ratio

Sin\theta =\frac{Perpendicular}{Hypotenuse}

Sin22.3^{\circ} =\frac{AB}{AC}

AC=\frac{2600}{Sin22.3^{\circ}}

AC=\frac{2600}{0.379456159529}

AC=6851.9

So, riders travel 6852 feet .

The y distance of this problem is 2600 with an angle of elevation of 22.3 degrees. This angle is measured from the horizontal. This problem is solved using the Pythagorean theorem where 2600 is the opposite and we are to solve the hypotenuse. It is solved by the equation sin(theta) = opposite /hypotenuses. Plug in the given and the answer is 6852 feet.

URGENT!!! 50 POINTS!!! URGENT!!!!!!! Consider the polynomial functions P (x) and Q (x)​ , where neither polynomial is a constant
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Always

Always

Sometimes

Never

Step-by-step explanation:

P(X) + Q(X)

Sum of two polynomials is always a polynomial.

For example, Let P(x) = 3x² and Q(x) = 5x

$ \implies P(x) + Q(x) = 3x² + 5x

This is again a polynomial.

In other words, we can say that Polynomial is closed under addition.

P(x) . Q(x)

Product of two polynomials is again a polynomial.

Let P(x) = 2x and Q(x) = a constant function, 5

Then the product = 10x, is again a polynomial.

Multiplication of two polynomials is closed.

P(x) / Q(x)

This need not always be a polynomial. When Q(x) = a constant function zero, i.e., Q(x) = 0, then the function is not defined.

But let's say P(x) = 5x² and Q(x) = x.

$ \frac{P(x)}{Q(x)} $ = $ \frac{5x^2}{x} $ = 5x, a polynomial.

So, $ \frac{P(x)}{Q(x)} $ is a polynomial sometimes.

We can, say Division is not always closed.

1/Q(x)

This could never be a polynomial. This is not even in the form of a polynomial. So, $ \frac{1}{Q(x)} $ is never a polynomial.

Hence, the answer.

What is the average rate of change of the function f(x)=2x+4 over the interval -4 ≤ x ≤ 1? Table
Tom [10]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

the rate of change is measured as

\frac{f(b) - f(a)}{b-a} in the closed interval [ a, b ]

here [a, b ] = [- 4, 1 ]

f(b) = f(1) = 2 + 4 = 6

f(a) = f(- 4) = - 8 + 4 = - 4

average rate of change = \frac{6-(-4)}{1-(-4)} = \frac{10}{5} = 2
