Answer:

The slope is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = rise / run, meaning that when you move 2 units up, you move 1 unit right. The slope here is positive.

A highway engineer specifies that a certain section of roadway covering a horizontal distance of 2km should have a downgrade of

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

$0.16km$

Step-by-step explanation:

A highway engineer wants to compute the change in elevation of a section of road. The horizontal distance of this section of road is 2km and downgrade is 8%

The slope formula is given by

$m=\frac{rise}{run}=\frac{x}{y}$

m = 8% = 8/100

run = y = 2km

$m =\frac{x}{y}$

$\frac{8}{100} =\frac{x}{2}$

$\frac{2*8}{100} =x$

$x=\frac{16}{100} =0.16km$

Verification:

$m=\frac{0.16}{2}= 0.08=8%$ %

Use the compound interest formula A =P(1 + r) t and the given information to solve for r.

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

Rounding to nearest hundredths gives us r=0.06.

So r is about 6%.

Step-by-step explanation:

So we are given:

$A=P(1+r)^t$

where

$A=2300$

$P=1600$

$t=6$ .

$A=P(1+r)^t$

$2300=1600(1+r)^6$

Divide both sides by 1600:

$\frac{2300}{1600}=(1+r)^6$

Simplify:

$\frac{23}{16}=(1+r)^6$

Take the 6th root of both sides:

$\sqrt[6]{\frac{23}{16}}=1+r$

Subtract 1 on both sides:

$\sqrt[6]{\frac{23}{16}}-1=r$

So the exact solution is $r=\sqrt[6]{\frac{23}{16}}-1$

Most likely we are asked to round to a certain place value.

I'm going to put my value for r into my calculator.

r=0.062350864

Rounding to nearest hundredths gives us r=0.06.
