Explanation:
We view the ramp as a right triangle. The hypotenuse is 4.2 and the vertical side .7, which is opposite the angle
θ
we seek.

I'm going to finish the problem but I'll note if we were actually building the ramp we don't need to know the angle; this sine is sufficient.

which I think is a pretty steep ramp for a wheelchair.
There will be another inverse sine that is the supplementary angle, around

, but we can rule that out as a value for a ramp wedge angle.

Tiffany
Step-by-step explanation:
Ramon is 4 to 1 water to sugar
Tiffany is 3 to 1 water to sugar
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the Pythagorean theorem. The sum of the square of the sides is the square of the hypotenuse.
x² +(√200)² = (√300)²
x² = 300 -200
x = √100 = 10
The length of the unknown side is 10 units.
Answer:
The first statement is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is f(x) = - (x + 6)(x + 2)
⇒ f(x) = - x² - 8x - 12
Now, condition for a function f(x) to be increasing at x = a is f'(a) > 0.
Now, f(x) = - x² - 8x - 12
⇒ f'(x) = -2x - 8 {Differentiating with respect to x}
Now, f'(a) = -2a - 8 {Here a can be any real value}
And, the condition for increasing function at x = a is
- 2a - 8 > 0
⇒ - 2a > 8
⇒ a < - 4
Therefore, the first statement is true i.e. the function is increasing for all real values of x where x < – 4. (Answer)
