<span>You have that the ramp is 445 feet long and rises a vertical distance of 80 feet.

 Therefore, you mus apply the following proccedure:

 Sin(</span>α)<span>^-1=Opposite/Adjancent
 Sin(</span>α)<span>^-1=80/445
 </span>α=10°
<span>
 What is the angle of elevation from the car to the end of the ramp?

 The answer is: 10°</span>

With the information provided in the problem, we can create a right triangle with the ramp as its hypotenuse, and  the vertical rise as its opposite side from its angle of elevation.
Let E be the angle of elevation from the car to the end of the ramp. We now know that the hypotenuse of our triangle measures 445 feet, and the opposite side measures 80 feet, so we need a trig function that relates our angle of elevation with the hypotenuse and the opposite side. That function is sine:
sine(E)= \frac{80}{445}
E=arcsine( \frac{80}{445} )
E=10.36

We can conclude that the angle of elevation from the car to the end of the ramp is 10.36°.

Elden [556K]
F(g(x)) means you take the g function and put it into x in the f function.  He took the function and put it into the g, which was the incorrect order.  He should have had this: f(g(x))=-4(5x^2)

A map show a town with an area of 3.5 inches.If the map has a scale of 1 inch:4 miles,what is the actual area of the town?
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

The actual area of the town is 14 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you know that the scale is 1 inch:4 miles and that the map shows a town with an area of 3.5 inches, you can expressed this as follows:

Scale: 1 inch:4 miles

map area: 3.5 inches

If the actual area is x, you can say that:

3.5:x=1:4

This would be:

\frac{3.5}{x}=\frac{1}{4}

Now, you can solve for x:

x=(3.5*4)/1

x=14

According to this, the answer is that the actual area of the town is 14 miles.
