To answer this you have to use Pythagoras's theorem: a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Put in the values:
5^2 + 15^2 = c^2
Simplify it:
25 + 225 = c^2
Simplify again:
250 = c^2
Square root both sides:
15.8113883008 = c
So the ramp is:
15.8113883008 feet
Now round the number:
15.8ft
The above is the answer :)
(btw sorry in advance if you've spotted a mistake)
Answer:
x = 48
Step-by-step explanation:
It is a 90 degree angle. So first you would subtract 42 from 90 degrees. Then you'd get your answer! Hope this helped
Answer: y = x/2 + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c
Where c = intercept
Slope, m = change in value of y on the vertical axis / change in value of x on the horizontal axis
change in the value of y = y2 - y1
Change in value of x = x2 -x1
y2 = final value of y
y 1 = initial value of y
x2 = final value of x
x1 = initial value of x
Looking at the graph,
y2 = 6
y1 = 4
x2 = 6
x1 = 2
Slope,m = (6 - 4)/(6 - 2) = 2/4 = 1/2
To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 2, y = 4 and m= 1/2 into y = mx + c. It becomes
4 = 1/2 × 2 + c
4 = 1 + c
c = 4 - 1
c = 3
The equation becomes
y = x/2 + 3
12 dollars.
1+10=11
Then 4 quarters is $1 so you then add a dollar to get
$12
[x-1]=5x+10
We have two equations:
1) x-1=5x+10
x-1=5x+10
x-5x=10+1
-4x=11
x=-11/4
2) x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-(5x+10)
x-1=-5x-10
x+5x=-10+1
6x=-9
x=-9/6=-3/2
we have two possible solutions:
solution₁; x=-11/4
solution₂: x=-3/2
we check it out:
1) x=-11/4
[x-1]=5x+10
[-11/4 - 1]=5(-11/4)+10
[(-11-4)/4]=-55/4 + 10
[-15/4]=(-55+40) /4
15/4≠-15/4 This solution don´t work.
2) x=-3/2
[x-1]=5x+10
[-3/2 - 1]=5(-3/2)+10
[(-3-2)/2]=-15/2 + 10
[-5/2]=(-15+20)/2
5/2=5/2; this solution works.
Therefore:
Answer: x=-3/2.
