You need to find, first, the horizontal component of the inclined force (call it Wx), using an angle of 15 degrees (which is the angle between the inclined plane and the horizontal).

=> cos(15°) = Wx / 2.5 lb => Wx = 2.5 lb * cos(15°).

Second, you can find the inclined force , W, needed to produce the horizontal component Wx.

cos(33°) = Wx / W => W = Wx / cos (33°) = 2.5 lb*cos(15°) / cos(33°) = 2.88 lb

Answer: 2.88 lb

EastWind [94]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cylinder is \pi r^2 h, where r is the radius of the base and h is the height of the cylinder.

\pi \cdot 3.25^2 \cdot 10=105.625\pi \text{ cm}^3

Therefore, the correct answer is choice B. Hope this helps!

David's total income is ($8/hr)x + ($11/hr)y.

This problem requires us to write and solve an inequality:

8x + 11(15)<$200

Solving for x:     8x < $200-$165, or 8x < $35.  Strictly speaking, x = 4.375 hrs, but if we assume that David must work an integer # of hours, then x=5 full hours.
