Explanation:
We view the ramp as a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 4.2 and the vertical side .7, which is opposite the angle
θ
we seek.

I'm going to finish the problem but I'll note if we were actually building the ramp we don't need to know the angle; this sine is sufficient.

which I think is a pretty steep ramp for a wheelchair.
There will be another inverse sine that is the supplementary angle, around

, but we can rule that out as a value for a ramp wedge angle.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation is Y = mx + b so just plug in the m and the b
.2 m^3 is 10 percent
.2 m^3 is 10 percent
.2 m^3 is 10 percent
.1 m^3 is 5 percent
therefore
.7m^3 is 35%
.6m^3 is 10%
.3 m^3 is 5%
so .9m^3 is 15 %
all in .9m^3 +.7m^3 = 1.6 m^3 will be sand
Answer: x=7/5 or 1 2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
x+3/5=2
Subtract 3/5 on both sides
x+3/5-3/5=2-3/5
x=10/5-3/5 (This is to convert 2, as a integer, to a fraction in order to ease the
x=7/5 operation)
