Answer:

Maximum slope for hand-propelled wheelchair ramps should be 1" of rise to every 12" of length (4.8 degree angle; 8.3% grade). Maximum slope for power chairs should be 1.5" rise to 12" length (7.1 degree angle; 12.5% grade)

I hope this will help you

Two lines are intersecting. What is the value of x? Enter your answer in the box. (x + 23) (2x + 4)° Help! Please!!!
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

x = 51^o

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Intersecting lines

Required

Find x

To do this, we make use of:

x + 23^o + 2x + 4^o = 180^o --- angle on a straight line

Collect like terms

x  + 2x = 180^o - 4^o - 23^o

3x = 153^o

Divide both sides by 3

x = 51^o

Suppose a normal distribution has a mean of 62 and a standard deviation of4. What is the probability that a data value is betwee
saw5 [17]

SOLUTION

From the given data the mean is 62 and standard deviation is 4

It is required to find the probability that a data value is between 57 and 62

That is:

P(57\lt x\lt65)

The z scores is calculated using:

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}

Using the x values it follows:

z=\frac{57-62}{4}=-1.25

Also,

z=\frac{65-62}{4}=0.75

Thus the required probability is:

P(-1.25The proability is:[tex]P(-1.25This can be expressed as percentage as:[tex]P(-1.25\lt z\lt0.75)=66.8\%

Therefore the correct option is C

Answer:

X = 9 months

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the number of months when the cost of each payment

are the same, you should equate the two cost. First establish the equations


Let A be the cost of first payment method


B is the cost of the second payment method


X is the number of months


A = 38x + 15


B = 31x + 78


38x + 15 = 31x + 78


7x = 63


X = 9 months
