Imagine your job is to collect or measure the data that is needed to determine the % grade of mountain roads in a certain region of the U.S. Which of these quantities is needed for you to be able to use arcsine to calculate the % grade? Select all that apply.
a) The length of a section of the road
b) The angle of depression
c) The horizontal distance travelled
d) The change in elevation along a section of road

Answers

Answer 1

The quantity that is needed for you to be able to use arcsine to calculate the percentage grade is D. The change in elevation along a section of road

What is an elevation?

A geographic location's elevation is its height above or below a set reference point, most typically a reference geoid, which is a mathematical model of the Earth's sea level as an equipotential gravitational surface.

Elevation is described as the height above the ground or other surface, as well as a location or position of elevation. A plane flying 36,000 feet above the ground is an illustration of elevation. A pope being elevated to the position of saint is an example of elevation.

When driving on mountain roads, road signs frequently reflect the route's steepness as a percentage grade, which represents the angle of elevation as the road increases. In this case, the correct option is D.

A sequence of transformations maps ∆ABC to ∆A′B′C′. The sequence of transformations that maps ∆ABC onto ∆A′B′C′ is a reflection across the line x = -3 followed by a reflection across the line y = x.

What is the explanation of the above transformation?

Given that both triangles are congruent, we can infer or deduce that there were no dilations or contractions. Hence, since we are moving in a clockwise direction, we can submit that this was not a rotation but a reflection.

Hence the first sequence of reflection was such that:

∆ABC reflects onto ∆A′B′C′ across the line x = -3; followed by
a reflection across the line y = x.

Note that in geometry, reflection refers to the mirror image of an image. The line through which an image reflects is called the line of reflection.

a ) The required measure of x = 90°

b ) The height of the right angled triangle = = [tex]\sqrt{244}[/tex]

Given is a triangle with measure 15, 20 and 25

a ) Since a perpendicular is dropped from above

the two angles of x are equal because the angle is bisected by an angle bisector

So to check whether the angle x is a right angled or not

we can use the pythagoras theorem and check if the LHS = RHS or not

LHS = 15² + 20² = 225 + 400 = 625

and RHS = 25² = 625

Since LHS = RHS thus the angle is 90 degrees

b ) The height of the right triangle ;

by using the Pythagoras theorem again

12.5² + h² = 20²  { side 25 is bisected = 12.5 }

h² = 400 - 156.25

Using r as your variable to represent the speed of the plane in miles per hour, write an equation
using the information above that can be solved to find the answer to this problem.
Equation:____?
The plane flies___?

Answers

The plane flies at a speed of 150mph

A plane can fly 300 miles in the same time as it takes a car to go 120 miles

Let the time taken be t

Let the speed of the plane be x

the car travels 90 mph slower than the plane,

Speed of the car is x - 90

Speed = distance / time

Time taken by plane = time taken by car

300/ x = 120/x - 90

300(x - 90) = 120x

300x - 27000 = 120x

300x - 120x = 27000

180x = 27000

x = 27000/180

x = 150

Therefore, the plane flies at a speed of 150mph

The slope of the line x = 3 is undefined

How to describe the slope of the line

The slope is defined as the ratio of the vertical change between two points, the rise, to the horizontal change between the same two points, the run.

Mathematically, the slope is the change in y divided by the change in x. That is:

Slope = y2-y1 / x2-x1

Let's pick any two convenient points on the line:

(3, 9) and (3, -9) = > x1 = 3, y1 = -9 and  x2 = 3, y2 = 9

Slope = 9-(-9) / 3-3  = 18/0

The denominator here is 0, if you evaluate this using a calculator you will a maths error. So we say the slope is undefined

Notice that: There is no change in x i.e. x1 = x2

Therefore, the slope of x = 3 is undefined because x = 3 is a vertical line

Answers

The proportional equation between y and x^2 is:

y = 3*x^2

How to write the equation?

We know that y is directly proportional to x^2, then we can write:

y = k*x^2

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

We also know that when x = 10, the value of y is 300, replacing that in the above equation we get:

300 = k*(10)^2

Now we can solve this for k:

300 = k*100

300/100 = k

3 = k

Answer:

[tex]x=2.16*10^{11}u-7.2k[/tex].

Side note: This answer could be more precise if made usage of more significant figures. For practicality reasons, in this solution we reduced the amount of significant figures to use.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Write the expression.

[tex]150u=0.694(x+7.2K)*10^-9[/tex]

2. Solve the parenthesis using the distributive property of multiplication.

[tex]150u=[(0.694*x)+(0.694*7.2K)]*10^-9\\\\150u=[0.694x+4.9968k]*10^-9\\ \\150u=10^-9*0.694x+10^-9*4.9968k[/tex]

3. Subtract "10^-9*0.694x" from both sides of the equation.

[tex]150u-10^-9*0.694x=10^-9*0.694x-10^-9*0.694x+10^-9*4.9968k\\ \\150u-10^-9*0.694x=10^-9*4.9968k[/tex]

4. Subtract "150µ" from both sides of the equation.

[tex]-150u+150u-10^-9*0.694x=10^-9*4.9968k-150u\\ \\-10^-9*0.694x=10^-9*4.9968k-150u[/tex]

5. Divide both sides by "-10^-9*0.694".

[tex]\frac{-10^-9*0.694x}{-10^-9*0.694} =\frac{10^-9*4.9968k-150u}{-10^-9*0.694} \\ \\\frac{-10^-9*0.694x}{-10^-9*0.694} =\frac{10^-9*4.9968k}{-10^-9*0.694}-\frac{150u}{-10^-9*0.694} \\ \\x=-7.2k-(-2.16*10^{11} u)\\ \\x=-7.2k+2.16*10^{11}u\\ \\x=2.16*10^{11}u-7.2k[/tex]

At some point in its path it reaches a highest point.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume our task is to find that point of time, when it reaches the highest point.

and the function is

h(t) = -16t² + 96t + 112

well, a maximum or minimum of a curve (function) is found as a zero solution of the first derivative of the function.

given the nature of the function, the extreme point has to be a maximum (the firecracker goes up and then down again).

h'(t) = -32t + 96

we are looking for the zero :

0 = -32t + 96

32t = 96

t = 3 seconds

so, after 3 seconds, the firecracker reaches its highest point, which is at

-16×3² + 96×3 + 112 = -16×9 + 96×3 + 112 =

= -144 + 288 + 112 = 256 ft

FYI - we know for x = 0 (the starting point) the height of the starting window was 112 ft.

Write the equation of the line with a slope of 3/2that contains the point ( — 4, − 2).

Answers

The equation of line with a slope of 3/2 which passes through point (-4,-2) is y = (3/2)x + 4.

What is the equation of line with the given point and slope?

The equation of line is expressed as;

y = mx + b

Where m is slope and b is y-intercept.

Given the data in the question;

Point (-4, -2 )

x = -4y = -2Slope m = 3/2

First, we determine the y-intercept 'b'.

Plug the point and slope slope into the equation of line formula and solve for b.

y = mx + b

-2 = (3/2)(-4) + b

-2 = (3)(-2) + b

-2 = -6 + b

b = -2 + 6

b = 4

Now, plug the slope and y-intercept into y = mx + b to determine the equation of the line.

y = mx + b

y = (3/2)x + 4

Therefore, the equation of the line is y = (3/2)x + 4.
