Arlington ISD needs to construct a handicap ramp for one of its new buildings under construction. One point on the construction blueprint for the ramp can be identified by the ordered pair (d, 4d), and another point on the ramp is identified by the ordered pair (3d, 5d). If d is not equal to zero, what will the slope of the handicap ramp be after construction is completed?

Answers

Answer 1

The slope of the handicap ramp is 1/2

The slope of the handicap ramp is gotten from the equation for the slope of a line, m with endpoints (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂).

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Since one point of the ramp can be identified by the ordered pair (d, 4d) and another point on the ramp is identified by the ordered pair (3d, 5d), we have that (x₁, y₁) = (d, 4d) and (x₂, y₂) = (3d, 5d).

Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

m = (5d - 4d)/(3d - d)

m = d/2d

m = 1/2

So, the slope of the handicap ramp is 1/2

The ratio of boys to girls at a party was 6:7 if there were 28 girls how many people attended the party

Answers

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

6+7=13

6:7=13

x:28

28/7=4

so you have to multiply by 4

4x6=24

24 boys and 28 girls

24+28=52

Answer:

52

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets put the ratio like this: 6x (boys) : 7x (girls)

because we know that the amount of girls is 28 we can set them equal as so:

7x = 28

÷ divide both sides by 7

x = 4

now add 6x + 7x to get the total people = 13x and because x equals 4, we can multiply 13 by 4. Which is 52

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y= -3x+9[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can easily see from the graph that the equation intersecs the x-axis at p=3 and the y-axis at q=9. Now there is a trick to quickly write the equation in these situations, and it is

[tex]\frac xp + \frac yq = 1[/tex] where p and q are the length of the segments (with their sign!!) the line cuts from the origin.

At this point, it's just a matter of writing the equation in the wanted form:

[tex]\frac x3 + \frac y9 =1\\9\frac x3 + y = 9\\y= -3x+9[/tex]

Which is the equation you want.

If you prefer a more traditional approach, you can determine the slope right away by noticing that when the y coordinate moves from 9 to 0, ie it decreases by 9, the x coordinate goes from 0 to 3, and the slope is [tex]m= {\Delta y \over \Delta x} = {{-9}\over{3}} = -3[/tex]

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

2 things to remember for problems like this :

the sum of all angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees.

the law of sines :

a/sin(A) = b/sin(B) = c/sin(C) or upside-down (whatever fuss the situation better), with the sides being always opposite of the angles.

so, now for the given problems :

4.

x/sin(90) = 12/sin(29)

x/1 = x = 12/sin(29) = 24.75198408...

rounded x = 24.8

5.

the opposite angle of x is

180 - 90 - 16 = 74 degrees.

x/sin(74) = 37/sin(90) = 37

x = 37×sin(74) = 35.56668275...

rounded x = 35.6

6.

the opposite angle of x is

180 - 90 - 58 = 32 degrees.

x/sin(32) = 22/sin(58)

x = 22×sin(32)/sin(58) = 13.74712574...

rounded x = 13.7

7.

the opposite angle of 15 is

180 - 90 - 51 = 39 degrees.

x/sin(51) = 15/sin(39)

x = 15×sin(51)/sin(39) = 18.52345735...

rounded x = 18.5

William Kamkwamba, the author of The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind, structured his memoir by first telling about the day the windmill he built first generated electricity, then by telling about the events that led him to build the windmill, and finally by telling about what happened to him after he built the windmill.

This is an example of which type of text structure?


Why does Kamkwamba begin with the day the windmill first generated electricity?

Answers

The kind of text structure that was utilized by William Kamkwamba in the story, "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind" is the Sequential text structure.

William Kwakwamba began with the day the windmill first generated electricity because it was remarkable and is, therefore, the first detail to note in the story.

To understand why this is the right text structure, we need to first understand what text structure is and the characteristics of a sequential structure.

What is Text Structure?

Text structure refers to the organization of writing to convey intended meanings.

The sequential text structure follows these processes:

It is a step-by-step account of the events in the story.It can be identified by words such as first, then, and finally.

Thus given these explanations of what the sequential text structure is, we can classify the excerpt from William Kamkwamba's "The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind" as sequential.
