Answer:
The intersection is
.
The Problem:
What is the intersection point of
and
?
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the intersection of
and
, we will need to find when they have a common point; when their
and
are the same.
Let's start with setting the
's equal to find those
's for which the
's are the same.

By power rule:

Since
implies
:

Squaring both sides to get rid of the fraction exponent:

This is a quadratic equation.
Subtract
on both sides:


Comparing this to
we see the following:



Let's plug them into the quadratic formula:




So we have the solutions to the quadratic equation are:
or
.
The second solution definitely gives at least one of the logarithm equation problems.
Example:
has problems when
and so the second solution is a problem.
So the
where the equations intersect is at
.
Let's find the
-coordinate.
You may use either equation.
I choose
.

The intersection is
.
Answer:
The length of the sloping section of the ramp is 20.12 m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
the total height of the bank, h = 2.8 m
The slope of the ramp must be 8° to the horizontal, i.e, θ = 8°
Let the length of the sloping section = L
let the horizontal distance between the height of the bank and sloping section = b
Thus, h, L and b forms three sides of a right angled-triangle, with L as the hypotenuse side, h (height of the triangle) as the opposite side and b (base of the triangle) as the adjacent side.
We determine L by applying the following formula;
Sinθ = opposite / hypotenuse
Sin θ = h / L
L = h / Sin θ
L = 2.8 / Sin 8
L = 2.8 / 0.13917
L = 20.12 m
Therefore, the length of the sloping section of the ramp is 20.12 m
The answer is B.
X = -11 :-)
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
40=1/2(115-x)
80=115-x
-35=-x
x=35
Use PEMDAS, the answer that I got is 19.
