Answer:
Ox>5
x is less than 5
means nothing more than 5 but anything less than 5
Answer:
This is a direct variation where the constant of variation is 5/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation for direct variation is y = kx
5x-9y =0
Lets try to get this equation in the above form
Add 9y to each side
5x-9y +9y = 9y
5x = 9y
Divide each side by 9
5/9 x = 9y/9
5/9x = y
This is in the form y = k x where k =5/9
Answer:
a. 12 feet b. 12 feet 0.5 inches c. 8.33 %
Step-by-step explanation:
a. How far out horizontally on the ground will it protrude from the building?
Since the rise to run ratio is 1:12 and the building is 12 inches off the ground, let x be the horizontal distance the ramp protrudes.
So, by ratios rise/run = 1/12 = 12/x
1/12 = 12/x
x = 12 × 12
x = 144 inches
Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144 inches = 144 × 1 inch = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches = 12 feet
b. How long should the ramp be?
The length of the ramp, L is gotten from Pythagoras' theorem since the ramp is a right-angled triangle with sides 12 inches and 144 inches respectively.
So, L = √(12² + 144²)
= √[12² + (12² × 12²)]
= 12√(1 + 144)
= 12√145
= 12 × 12.042
= 144.5 inches
Since 12 inches = 1 foot, 144.5 inches = 144 × 1 inch + 0.5 inches = 144 × 1 foot/12 inches + 0.5 inches = 12 feet 0.5 inches
c. What percent grade is the ramp?
The percentage grade of the ramp = rise/run × 100 %
= 12 inches/144 inches × 100 %
= 1/12 × 100 %
= 0.0833 × 100 %
= 8.33 %
It would be a³ b ^4.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying :)
Answer: 11
Step-by-step explanation: write the equation.
2(x+4)=30
Divide by 2
x+4=15
Subtract 4
x=11
