A library wishes to build an access ramp for wheelchairs. The main entrance of the library is 8 ft. above sidewalk level. If the architect recommends a grade (angle of elevation) of 6°, how long must the access ramp be?​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

About 76.5 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a diagram of a right triangle.  The shorter leg represents the height of the main entrance of the library, which is 8 ft.  The longer leg won't matter in this case.  The hypotenuse is what we're trying to find, so mark it as x.  We know there's a 6° angle of elevation, so the 30° angle of the triangle will be 6° in this case.  Now we have to use trig.  Think of Soh Cah Toa.  The 6° is opposite from 8 and the hypotenuse is x.  So, the equation to find x would be:

sin (6°) = 8/x

Multiply both sides by x

sin (6°) * x = 8

Divide both sides by sin (6°)

x = 8/sin (6°)

When putting it into a calculator, your answer should be 76.534, which rounds to 76.5 ft.

Midpoints & endpoints

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of A are (1, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding a midpoint is ((x1 + x2) / 2, (y1 + y2) / 2)

However, in this problem, we're already given the midpoint.  We're trying to find an endpoint.  So, the equation changes into:

((x + 9) / 2 = 4, (y + 0) / 2 = -2)

For the x and y coordinates, multiply both sides by 2

(x + 9 = 8, y = -4)

(x = -1, y = -4)

Rewrite as coordinates.

Which is the equation of the line that passes through (6, 2) and is perpendicular to a line with slope -1/3? ​

Answers

Answer:

(c) y = 3x - 16 or y - 2 = 3(x - 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

To be perpendicular, the slope must be the negative inverse of the other line,

so we know the slope must be -(-3/1) = 3

then the general point-slope form is

y = mx + b (m = slope and b = y-intercept) so

y = 3x + b (then use the point given (6,2) to find m)

2 = 3(6) + b

2 = 18 + b

2 - 18 = b

-16 = b

then

y = mx + b

y = 3x - 16

A new car sales person, sold an average of $46,975 per day for the first two days she worked. The next one days she worked, she sold an average of $45,765. How much did she sell on average per day over the entire time she worked?

Answers

Answer:

$46,571.67

Step-by-step explanation:

if your description is right and complete, she sold cars on the first 2 days as average for $46975.

and on the third day for $45765

to calculate the total average we need to know the total amount of sales and then divide it by the observation period length (3 days).

how do we get the total sales ?

we know the average of the first 2 days. we don't need to find the exact value for every day, but we know the exact value for these first 2 days : 2×46975 = $93950

as the average of these 2 days = (day1 + day2)/2

46975 = (day1 + day2)/2

day1 + day2 = 2×46975 = 93950

it is not important what two (day) numbers created 93950. we know that this was the total sum of the first two days. and that is enough.

so, we have in total

$93950 on the first 2 days

$45765 in the third day

-------------

$139715 for all 3 days

the average per day is then

139715 / 3 = $46,571.67

44 is not divisble by 3 because 4+4=8 is not divisble by 3.

45 is divisble by 3 because 4+5=9 is divisble by 3.

46 is not divisble by 3 because 4+6=10 is not divisble by 3.

47 is not divisble by 3 because 4+7=11 is not divisble by 3.

54 is divisble by 3 because 5+4=9 is divisble by 3.

55 is not divisble by 3 because 5+5=10 is not divisble by 3.

56 is not divisble by 3 because 5+6=11 is not divisble by 3.

57 is divisble by 3 because 5+7=12 is divisble by 3.

64, 65,67 are not divisble by 3 because their digits' sums are 10,11, and 13 respectively. 66 is a winner because 6+6=12 is divisble by 3.

Finally 7...

Line RS bisects segment PQ at R. If RQ = x + 9 and RP = 2x, find PQ.

Answers

Answer:

PQ measures 36 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line RS bisects segment PQ at R. By the definition of a bisector:

[tex]\displaystyle PR = RQ[/tex]

Hence:

We are given that RQ = x + 9 and RP = 2x, and we want to determine PQ.

Solve for x. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle (2x) = (x+9)[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle x = 9[/tex]

PQ is given by:

[tex]\displaystyle PQ = PR + RQ[/tex]

Since PR = RQ:

[tex]\displaystyle PQ =2PR[/tex]

Substitute and evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} PQ &= 2PR \\ &= 2(2x) \\ &= 4x \\ &= 4(9) \\ &= 36 \end{aligned}[/tex]

Hence, PQ measures 36 units.

Answers

Answer:

EF ≈ 18.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the info I am given I believe they are asking for the distance between E and F (i think you wrote B by mistake). (d = distance)

d =√ (x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²   -->   (this is the distance formula)

d =√ (11 - (-7))² + (3 - (-2))²

d =√ (18)² + (5)²

d =√ 324 + 25

d =√ 349

d ≈ 18.68

Kim is planning to rent a bike. It costs $15 per day plus $5 per hour. Kim's total bill was $100, how many hours did she rent the bike?

Answers

Answer:

17 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

total cost = fee + cost per hour * hours

100 = 15 + 5h

Subtract 15 from each side

100-15 = 5h

85 = 5h

Divide by 5

85/5 = 5h/5

17 =h

Answer:

Kim rent the bike for 17 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

h=hours

15 + 5h = 100

Subtract 15 on both sides.

5h = 85

Divide 5 on both sides.

h = 17
