A suspension bridge with weight uniformly distributed along its length has twin towers that extend 75 meters above the road surf

ace and are 400 meters apart. The cables are parabolic in shape and are suspended from the tops of the towers. The cables touch the road surface at the center of the bridge. Find the height of the cables at a point 100 meters from the center.

Answer:

Let take the center of bridge as our origin (0,0). Parabola having vertex at origin is represented by y=a.x^2

At the right far end or +ive x-axis side we've x=200 and y=75 , so a=75/(200^2)=0.001875

Y

Parabola equation y=0.001875*x^2

Height of cable from 100m from centre. Y=? ,X=100m

Y=0.001875*(100^2)

Y=18.75 m

Height of ropes at 100m from the center of bridge.

What value should be added to both sides for completing the square in this equation?
Mila [183]

Hey there!

x^2 + 4x = 12

SUBTRACT 12 to BOTH SIDES

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 12 - 12

SIMPLIFY IT

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

FACTOR the LEFT SIDE of your EQUATION

(x - 2)(x + 6) = 0

• EQUATION #1: x - 2 = 0

OR

• EQUATION #2: x + 6 = 0

SIMPLIFY IT

• EQUATION #1 answer: x = 2

OR

• EQUATION #2 answer: x = -6

OVERALL ANSWER: x = 2 or x = -6

YOUR ANSWER: x = 2 (Option A.)

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

3[x + 3(4x – 5)] = 15x – 24
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

\boxed{ \bold{ \huge{ \boxed{  \sf{x = 0.875}}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\sf{3[ x + 3(4x - 5)]  = 15x - 24}

Distribute 3 through the parentheses

⇒\sf{3[ x + 12x - 15 ]  = 15x - 24}

Collect like terms : 12x and x

⇒\sf{3[ 13x - 15 ]  = 15x - 24}

Distribute 3 through the parentheses

⇒\sf{39x - 45 = 15x - 24}

Move 15x to left hand side and change it's sign

Similarly, move 45 to right hand side and change it's sign

⇒\sf{39x - 15x =  - 24 + 45}

Collect like terms

⇒\sf{24x =  - 24 + 45}

Calculate

⇒\sf{24x = 21}

Divide both sides of the equation by 24

⇒\sf{ \frac{24x}{24}  =  \frac{21}{24}}

Calculate

⇒\sf{x = 0.875}

Hope I helped!

Best regards! :D

Answer:

1, 2, -3, 51

Step-by-step explanation:

0 ÷ 2 = 0

0 + 1 = 1

2 ÷ 2 = 1

1 + 1 = 2

-8 ÷ 2 = -4

-4 + 1 = -3

100 ÷ 2 = 50

50 + 1 = 51

Pleaseee helpppp !!!!!!!!! Will mark Brianliest !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ANSWER: FG = 69

FG = FK + KG
KG = 1/2(FK)
FK = 46

RULE: When it comes to centroids, the longer section of the line is always 2/3 of the entire line (+ the shorter section of the line is always 1/3). This means that the shorter section of the line is HALF of the longer section of the line.

FG = FK + KG
FG = 46 + 46/2
FG = 46 + 23
FG = 69

CHECK:
FK = 2/3(FG)
46 = 2*69/3
46 = 138/3
46 = 46 ✔️

or

KG = 1/3(FG)
1/2(FK) = 1/3(FG)
46/2 = 69/3
23 = 23 ✔️
