Answer:
6.25 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L be the length of the ramp in feet.
We have been given that steel loading ramps are used to load a lawn mower onto a truck bed 37.5 inches above the ground. The ramp make a 30° angle with the ground.
We can see from our attachment that ramp and truck bed forms a right triangle with ground. The truck bed is opposite side and length of ramp is hypotenuse of our given angle.
Since we know that Sine relates the opposite and hypotenuse of a right triangle, so we will use Sine to solve for L.
Upon substituting our given values in above formula we will get,
Therefore, the length of the ramp is 75 inches.
Let us convert the length of ramp in feet.
1 feet = 12 inches.
Therefore, the length of the ramp is 6.25 feet.
This is an exponential equation that can be represented by the following:
f(x) = a(b)^x
In this case...
25143 = a(0.66)^3
25143 is the population after 3 hours.
3 is the amount of time in hours.
0.66 represents the percent of the population remaining after each hour (66% as there is a 34% decline each hour).
We must solve for a, which is the initial population.
First, simplify (0.66)^3 to 0.2874.
25143 = 0.2874a
Now divide both sides by 0.2874 to isolate a.
a = 87455
There were initially 87,455 people within the city. I wouldn't want to be in that place!
B is the correct answer to this question
Answer:
y=1/4x-2
Step-by-step explanation:
the first y axis number it touches is -2 and the slope is 1/4.
X = 90-22
