Answer:

  • B. 630 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Horizontal leg of the right triangle = 778 ft
  • Angle opposite to vertical length = 39°
  • Vertical leg = h

<u>Use tangent to solve for h:</u>

  • h/778 = tan 39°
  • h / 778 = 0.81
  • h = 0.81*778
  • h = 630.18

Correct choice is B

ANSWER:

On using trigonometric function, we get

tanΦ = p/b

tan39° = p/778

p = 778 × 0.81

p = 630ft rounded.

So, <u>Correct choice</u> - [B] 630 feet.

The function d(s) = 0.0056s squared + 0.14s models the stopping distance
victus00 [196]

Answer:

The car must have a speed of 25 kilometres per hour to stop after moving 7 metres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be d(s) = 0.0056\cdot s^{2} + 0.14\cdot s, where d is the stopping distance measured in metres and s is the speed measured in kilometres per hour. The second-order polynomial is drawn with the help of a graphing tool and whose outcome is presented below as attachment.

The procedure to find the speed related to the given stopping distance is described below:

1) Construct the graph of d(s).

2) Add the function d = 7\,m.

3) The point of intersection between both curves contains the speed related to given stopping distance.

In consequence, the car must have a speed of 25 kilometres per hour to stop after moving 7 metres.
