The roof of a barn rises vertically 2.5 meters through the horizontal distance of 10 meters. What is the pitch (slope) of the ro

of?
Mathematics
1 answer:
vodomira [7]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The pitch (slope) of the roof is 0.25   or 25\%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope  is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

where

{y2-y1}=2.5\ m  -----> is the vertical distance (rise)

{x2-x1}=10\ m  -----> is the horizontal distance (run)

therefore

m=\frac{2.5}{10}=0.25

convert to percentage

0.25*100=25\%

[ please help! ] The graph below shows a line segment PQ.
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Slope of the line segment PQ is 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given with a line connecting two points P and Q.

The coordinates of P are (4,4) and the coordinates of Q are (-2,1).

Slope of line joining two points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2})

is given by the formula \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Hence the slope of the line PQ is \frac{1-4}{-2-4}=\frac{-3}{-6}= \frac{1}{2}

Therefore correct option is 'C' that is 1/2.

Taylor buys nail polish from a shop that cost $3.95 each. She has a maximum of $30 to spend on nail polish purchases. The total
kati45 [8]

Answer:

C_t=3.95x,\ 0\leq x\leq 7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Modeling With Functions</u>

It's a common practice to try to mathematically represent the relation between two or more variables. It allows us to better understand the behavior of the phenomena being observed and, more importantly, to be able to predict future values.

The specific situation stated in the question relates how Taylor buys nail polish for $3.95 each, with a maximum of $30 to spend. If x is the number of nail polish purchased, then the total cost will be

C_t=3.95x

But we know Taylor has a limited budget of $30, so the total cost cannot exceed that amount

3.95x\leq 30

Solving the inequality for x

x\leq 30/3.95

x\leq 7.6

We round down to

x\leq 7

Of course, the lower limit of x is 0, because Taylor cannot purchase negative quantities of nail polish

Our model is now complete if the state the limits of x, or its domain

\boxed{C_t=3.95x,\ 0\leq x\leq 7}

Approximately 2125 heart transplants were performed in a country in 2001. In​ 2006, the number of heart transplants in the count
professor190 [17]

Answer:

(2001, 2125),    (2006, 2360)

Step-by-step explanation:

An ordered pair refers to a pair of numbers or items in a simple and orderly manner. The order in which the items are grouped is very important. In graphs an ordered pair could be the coordinates of various points on the graph in terms of x and y, that is x and y coordinate (x,y).

From the question we are to form two ordered pair in the form (year, number of heart transplants).

to do this we simply fill out the items with their corresponding numbers where the first item is the year and second is the number of heart transplants.

in year 2001 we have   (2001, 2125)

in year 2006 we have (2006, 2360)
