The arch of a bridge can be modeled by

d="TexFormula1" title="y=-\frac{1}{170}(x-225)(x+225)" alt="y=-\frac{1}{170}(x-225)(x+225)" align="absmiddle" class="latex-formula">, where x and y are measured in feet. The x-axis represents the ground. Find the width of the arch of the bridge at ground level.

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.

In a small town, the use of coal (W in tons/per
zimovet [89]

Answer:

i)W = 2500 / T

ii)  W = 500 Tons

iii) grad W(10°) = - 25î

iv) The formulation is not practical

Step-by-step explanation:

i)  Write an equation describing the use of coal

As use of coal is inversely proportional to the average monthly temperature

if  W is use of coal in tons/per month then

W(t)  =   k / T              where k is a constant of proportionality and T is the average temperature in degrees. We have to determine k from given conditions

k  =  ??   we know that when   T  =  25°    W = 100 tons  the by subtitution

W = k/T           100  =  k /25       k  =  2500 Tons*degree

Then final equation is:

W = 2500 / T

ii) Find the amount of coal when T = 5 degrees

W = 2500 / 5

W = 500 Tons

iii)

The inverse proportionality implies that W will decrease as T increase.

The vector gradient of W function is:

grad W  = DW(t)/dt î  

grad W  = - 2500/T² î

Wich agrees with the fact that W is decreasing.

And when T = 100°

grad W(10°) =  - 2500/ 100 î      ⇒  grad W(10°) = - 25î

iv) When T =  0  The quantity of coal tends to infinite and the previous formulation is not practical

Select all angles that MUST be supplementary to 9
erastova [34]

Answer:

Angles supplementary to angle 9 = Angle <u>10</u>, <u>7</u>, <u>5</u>, <u>1</u>, <u>4</u>, <u>3</u>, <u>15</u>, <u>12</u>, <u>24</u>, <u>22</u>, <u>20</u>, <u>19</u>, and angle <u>16</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the vertical, and corresponding angles theorem to find congruent angles.

Look for linear pairs (adjacent(next to each other, or share a side) angles that make 180° or a straight angle) from the corresponding angles.

Something is supplementary if it adds to 180 degrees.

The vertical angles theorem states that pairs of opposite angles made by interesecting lines are congruent.

The corresponding angles theorem states that corresponding or angles relative to the same position are congruent if the transversal crosses at least 2 parallel lines.
