Answer:

  y = 250x +5000

Step-by-step explanation:

The "initial" enrollment is 5000, when x=0 years after 1960.

The rate of change of enrollment is ...

  change of enrollment / change in time

  = (15000 -5000)/(2000 -1960)

  = 10000/40 = 250 . . . . students per year

Then the desired equation is ...

  y = 250x + 5000

25. A wheelchair access ramp has an angle of elevation of 16°. If the ramp
Elanso [62]

Answer:

C. 76.81

Step-by-step explanation:

We must use one of the trigonometric ratios to find the length, L,  of the ramp.  If we use 16 as the reference angle, the 22 in would be our opposite side and the ramp length is the adjacent.

Therefore, we must use tan, which is \frac{opposite}{adjacent}:

tan (16)=\frac{22}{L} \\\\L*(tan(16)=22)\\\\L*tan(16)=22\\

\frac{L*tan(16)}{tan(16)}=\frac{22}{tan(16}  \\\\L=79.815=79.82 in.
