Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is defined as the rise over the run.  Our rise is the difference between the heights in the beams which is 7 feet (because the shorter beam is 7 feet shorter than the taller beam).  Our run is the distance between the 2 beams which is 40 feet.  Rise over run is also the same thing as the tangent ratio, which is the side opposite over the side adjacent to the angle of inclination.  Therefore,

tan(x) = 7/40 so the slope of the ramp is 7/40

Identify the domain of the function shown in the graph.
ivanzaharov [21]

For this case, we find the equation of the line, for this we look for points where the line passes:

(x1, y1) = (- 2,0)\\(x2, y2) = (- 10, -4)

We found the slope:

m = \frac {y2-y1} {x2-x1} = \frac {-4-0} {- 10 - (- 2)} = \frac {-4} {- 10 + 2} = \frac {- 4} {- 8} = \frac {1} {2}

Thus, the equation of the line is:

y = \frac {1} {2} x + b

We substitute a point to find "b":

0 = \frac {1} {2} (- 2) + b\\0 = -1 + b\\b = 1

Finally:

y = \frac {1} {2} x + 1

Now, the domain is given by all the values for which the function is defined.

It is observed that "x" can take any value, that is, it is defined for all real numbers.

The common difference based on the sequence given is 15.

<h3>How to illustrate the sequence?</h3>

It should be noted that the sequence given Isa arithmetic sequence.

The common difference will be the second term minus the first term. This will be:

= 101 - 86

= 15

In conclusion, the difference is 15.
