We can assume that this growth rate can be expressed as y = mx + b as long as the slope is constant, because a quadratic or exponential formula wouldn't make much sense in this situation. If it is growing at least 2 inches a month, the slope (m) will be 2. As x (month) increases by 1 month, y (plant's height) increases by 2 inches. You could make it more, but as long as you plot the points in such a way that the slope for these points are 2 or higher, you will get the answer correct. If you have any other questions or need to clarify more about what you wanted let me know and I'll help.
Answer:
The size of the angle formed at the top of the sail is 35.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the sum of all angles inside a triangle must be 180. This is a rule.
So we know that a right triangle is called like that because one angle is a 90-degree angle.
Then we have that:
180 = right angle + lower edge angle + angle top of the sail
180 = 90 + 55 + angle top of the sail
Solving for 'angle top of the sail' we have:
angle top of the sail = 180 - 90 - 55 = 35
The size of the angle formed at the top of the sail is 35.
Answer:
35+125=160
She was 160 feet up when she began hang gliding
This would be 45.9
