Michelle delivers books to school libraries. her truck has a slide out ramp for unloading the books. the top of the ramp is 3 ft above the ground. the ramp itself is 5.2 ft long. what is the horizontal distance the ramp reaches

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We can assume that the truck is vertically straight, so this will make up the vertical side of the triangle.

This means that the triangle is a right triangle since a right angle will be formed with the ground and the 3 ft side.

Next, we have the ramp length which is 5.2 ft long. This will be the hypotenuse of the right triangle since the ramp is slanted.

We want to find the length of the horizontal leg of the right triangle, which will give us the horizontal distance the ramp reaches.

We can use the Pythagorean Theorem since this is a right triangle:

a² + b² = c² a and b are the legs, c is the hypotenuse

Substitute these values into the equation and solve for b.

(3)² + b² = (5.2)² 9 + b² = 27.04 b² = 18.04 b = 4.24735211632

The horizontal distance the ramp reaches is 4.2 ft, parallel to the ground.

Write an inequality to represent 7 less than the product of a number, n, and 1/6 is at most 45."
Please help me, I need this right away!!!!

Answers

Answer:

The inequality to represent “7 less than the product of a number, n, and 1/6 is at most 45” is:

[tex]\frac{n}{6} -7\leq 45[/tex]

 

Solution:

Let the number be "n"

From given,

7 less than a product of a number n and 1/6 is at most 45

At most means "less than or equal to"

Therefore, inequality is framed as:

[tex]( n x \frac{1}{6}) -7 \leq 45[/tex]

Thus, inequality is:

[tex]\frac{n}{6} -7\leq 45[/tex]

 Solve the inequality:

Add 7 to both sides

[tex]\frac{n}{6} -7 + 7\leq 45 + 7\\simplify\\\frac{n}{6} \leq 52[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 6

[tex]\frac{6n}{6} \leq 52 multiply 6[/tex]

simplify

[tex]n\leq 312[/tex]

Thus the inequality is solved.

hope it help :)

Answers

Answer:

430 minutes or 7 hours and 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

From 8:35 am to 9 am is 25 minutes. There are 60 minutes in an hour and 9 am to 3 pm is 6 hours. 3:00 to 3:45 pm is an additional 45 minutes.

60 minutes x 6 hours = 360 minutes

360 + 25 + 45 = 430 minutes

Answer:

7 hours with 10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much minutes it takes to get to 9 a.m, which is 25 minutes.

Then, count up to 3 p.m, which is 6 hours.

Then, add the 45 minutes to 25, which will give you 70, but since you have more than 60 minutes, convert those 60 minutes to an hour adding that up to 7 hours and ten minutes.
