Answer:

The work done on the box is 69.28 ft-lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Work done = force × height

Force (F) = 10 pounds

The height (h) is calculated using trigonometric ratio

Length of ramp (hypotenuse side) = 8 feet

Angle of inclination above the horizontal = 30°

h/8 = cos 30°

h = 8cos 30° = 8×0.8660 = 6.928 feet

Work done = F×h = 10 pounds × 6.928 feet = 69.28 ft-lb

What are the solutions of the equation x^4 + 95x^2 - 500= 0? Use factoring to solve
Artist 52 [7]
1) given x^4 + 95x^2 - 500

2) split in two factors with common factor term x^2: (x^2 + )(x^2 - )

3) find two numbers that add up 95 and their product is - 500:

=> 100*(-5) = - 500 and 100 - 5 = 95

=> (x^2 + 100)(x^2 - 5)

4) factor x^2 - 5 = (x + √5) (x - √5)

5) write the prime factors: (x^2 + 100) (x + √5) (x -√5)

6) find the solutions:

x^2 + 100 = 0 => not possible

x + √5 = 0 => x = - √5

x - √5 = 0 => x = √5


Answer: x = √5 and x = - √5
