Answer:

29.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Riser, AB, Opposite = 10 cm

Thread, = AC, Adjacent = 18 cm

Angle of inclination, θ

Using trigonometry :

Tan θ = opposite / Adjacent = AB / AC

Tan θ = 10 / 18

θ = tan^-1(10/18)

θ = 29.055

Hence, angle of inclination is 29.1° (1 decimal place)

The distributive works for multiplication and addition. You switch the order of the problem but it doesn't change the final prod
Alja [10]

Answer:

Is there a question?

Step-by-step explanation:

If it is, by the way I look at it, To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something. According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.

A pine cone drops from a tree branch that is 36 feet above the ground. The function h = –16t2 + 36 is used. If the height h of t
scoray [572]
Notice that the height of the pine cone when it hits the ground is zero. So, to find the tame it takes for the pine cone to hit the ground, we just need to replace the height, h, with 0 in the function, and solve for time t:
h=-16t^2+36
0=-16t^2+36
-36=-16t^2
t^2= \frac{-36}{-16}
t^2= \frac{9}{4}
t=(+/-) \sqrt{ \frac{9}{4} }
t=(+/-) \frac{3}{2}
t=(+/-)1.5
Since time cannot be negative, the solution is t=1.5 seconds.

Since 1.5 second is significantly less than 2 seconds, we can conclude that <span>2 seconds is not a reasonable answer to this model.</span>

The rabbit population, y, in hundreds of rabbits, in an area x years since 1990 can be determined using this function: y = -0.1x
IrinaVladis [17]
Y=-0.1x^2+50

This is a quadratic with a negative acceleration of -0.2, a velocity of -0.2x, and an initial value of 50.

The rabbit population is decreasing rapidly, perhaps due to the area in which they live being developed or by the introduction of a predator population...
