Answer:

A. 4.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that,

The horizontal distance for the ramp = 12 feet.

Maximum height of the ramp = 1 feet.

So, we get that the value of the angle 'x' made by the ramp with the ground is given by,

\tan x=\frac{perpendicular}{base}

i.e. \tan x=\frac{1}{12}

i.e. \tan x=0.0833

i.e. x=\arctan 0.0833

i.e. x = 4.8°

Thus, the maximum angle made by the ramp with the ground is 4.8°.

Please help me ASAP!!!
OLga [1]

Answer: The answer would be B

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for this is because the triangles are similar they are also congruent. df=bc, fe=ac, ed=ab.

Because de=ba and ba=4 in. that would mean that de would also be 4in.

A stock was purchased at $15.75 per share, and sold at $19.25 per share.
BARSIC [14]
ANSWER:
B. $3.50


STEP BY STEP EXPLANATION:

We start out with buying the stock for $15.75 then sell it at $19.25. We need to find the difference.

Subtract $15.75 from $19.25

19.25 - 15.75 = 3.50

To check your work add $3.50 to $15.75

15.75 + 3.50 = 19.25

The table shows the numbers y of students absent from school x days after a flu outbreak.
allsm [11]
  1. A function that models the data is given by this quadratic equation, y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572.
  2. The number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak is equal to 11 students.

<h3>What is a scatter plot?</h3>

A scatter plot can be defined as a type of graph which is used for the graphical representation of the values of two (2) variables, with the resulting points showing any association (correlation) between the data set.

<h3>What is a quadratic function?</h3>

A quadratic function can be defined as a mathematical expression (equation) that can be used to define and represent the relationship that exists between two or more variable on a graph.

In Mathematics, the standard form of a quadratic equation is given by;

ax² + bx + c = 0

By critically observing the graph (see attachment) which models the data in the given table, we can infer and logically deduce that the quadratic function is given by:

y = -0.4908x² + 5.8845x + 1.3572

For the number of students that are absent 10 days after the outbreak, we have:

y = -0.4908(10)² + 5.8845(10) + 1.3572

y = -0.4908(100) + 58.845 + 1.3572

y = -49.08 + 58.845 + 1.3572

Number of students, y = 11.12 ≈ 11 students.
