Explanation:
We view the ramp as a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 4.2 and the vertical side .7, which is opposite the angle
θ
we seek.

I'm going to finish the problem but I'll note if we were actually building the ramp we don't need to know the angle; this sine is sufficient.

which I think is a pretty steep ramp for a wheelchair.
There will be another inverse sine that is the supplementary angle, around

, but we can rule that out as a value for a ramp wedge angle.
The value of the "6" in 49.62 is in the<u> tenth</u> place
Word problems describe a situation where something mathematical can be found out about a system. Often, it's a real-world measurement (like numbers of apples, ages of people, inches, feet, etc.) and usually have more than one object being discussed.
The answer must be expressed in specific units so the value cannot be confused with other measurements discussed in the problem.
An=a1+d (n-1)
a1= 7
find d
Let's use a2
a2=1
1=7+d (2-1)
1=7+d
-7 both sides
d=-6
explicit formula is
an=7+-6 (n-1)
a14=?
a14=7-6 (14-1)
a14=7-6×13
a14=7-78
a14=-71
