The grade is the ratio of rise to run, i.e. the slope aka the tangent.


Answer: (a) 6 degrees
For part b, the road is the hypotenuse c of a right triangle whose tangent of the small angle is 1/10. The height h or rise is the side opposite the small angle.


We could just take the sine of the angle we got but let's get it from the tangent exactly.

Dividing by squared cosine

Answer:
- short-term: $90,000
- long-term: $70,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount borrowed on the short term. Then 160000-x is the amount of the long-term note. The total interest is ...
0.11x +0.08(160000-x) = 15500
0.03x + 12800 = 15500 . . . . simplify
0.03x = 2700 . . . . . . . . . subtract 12800
x = 2700/.03 = 90,000 . . . . short-term note
160,000 -90,000 = 70,000 . . . . long-term note
The short-term note was for $90,000; the long-term note was for $70,000.
