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.

Answer:

431,707

Step-by-step explanation:

To figure out the total number, you need to divide the part of the whole by the percentage it is of the whole.  This means that you need to divide 35,400 by 8.2%.

Before dividing the percentage, you need to convert it to a decimal.

8.2% = 0.082

Divide the number to find the answer.

35,400/0.082 = 431,707.3

Converted to the nearest whole number, the answer is 431,707.

(03.01 LC)<br><br> What is the length of leg y of the right triangle? (1 point)
EastWind [94]

Answer:

<h2>A</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is

What is the length of leg y of the right triangle?

A right triangle with hypotenuse 26 and legs 24 and y

  • 10
  • 14
  • 24
  • 26

We need to use the Pythagorean Theorem, where h=26 and x=24,

h^{2} =x^{2} +y^{2}\\ 26^{2}=24^{2}+y^{2}\\y=\sqrt{26^{2}-24^{2}}\\ y=\sqrt{676-576}\\ y=\sqrt{100}\\ y=10

Therefore, the right answer is A. The length of the missing leg is 10 units.
