Answer:
450 feet at ground level
Step-by-step explanation:
The width of the bridge at ground level will be where the function intercepts the x-axis also known as the roots or zeros of the function. They are found using the zero product property to set each factor equal to 0.
This means (x-225) = 0 and (x + 225) = 0. So x = -225, 225.
This means the width is the absolute value of |-225| + 225 since distance cannot be negative. This makes it 450 feet.
The figure on the left side shows the water level is at the 0.5 liter mark, ie half a liter.
1 liter = 1000 mL
0.5*1 liter = 0.5*1000 mL
0.5 liter = 500 mL
If you poured all the water into the jug on the right (without spilling), then the water level should reach the 500 mL mark. This is the small tickmark exactly halfway between the 400 and 600.
The answer is 15.9 because 3.9+111=15.9
