Question:
Howard is designing a chair swing ride. The swing ropes are 4 meters long, and in full swing they tilt in an angle of 23°. Howard wants the chairs to be 3.5 meters above the ground in full swing. How tall should the pole of the swing ride be? Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.
Answer:
7.18 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Length of rope, L = 4 m
Angle = 23°
Height of chair, H= 3.5 m
In this question, we are to asked to find the height of the pole of the swing ride.
Let X represent the height of the pole of the swing ride.
Let's first find the length of pole from the top of the swing ride. Thus, we have:
Substituting figures, we have:
Let's make h subject of the formula.
The length of pole from the top of the swing ride is 3.68 meters
To find the height of the pole of the swing ride, we have:
X = h + H
X = 3.68 + 3.5
X = 7.18
Height of the pole of the swing ride is 7.18 meters
Answer:
x = -34
, y = 31
Step-by-step explanation suing Gaussian elimination:
Solve the following system:
{2 x + 3 y = 25
3 x + 4 y = 22
Express the system in matrix form:
(2 | 3
3 | 4)(x
y) = (25
22)
Write the system in augmented matrix form and use Gaussian elimination:
(2 | 3 | 25
3 | 4 | 22)
Swap row 1 with row 2:
(3 | 4 | 22
2 | 3 | 25)
Subtract 2/3 × (row 1) from row 2:
(3 | 4 | 22
0 | 1/3 | 31/3)
Multiply row 2 by 3:
(3 | 4 | 22
0 | 1 | 31)
Subtract 4 × (row 2) from row 1:
(3 | 0 | -102
0 | 1 | 31)
Divide row 1 by 3:
(1 | 0 | -34
0 | 1 | 31)
Collect results:
Answer: {x = -34
, y = 31
Answer:
Statement 3
Step-by-step explanation:
y = -2/3x-24
Make x the subject
y + 24 = -(⅔)x
x = -(3/2)(y + 24)
Intersection variables
f^-1(x) = -(3/2)(x + 24)
Slope: -3/2
No domain restrictions
y-intercept: x = 0
-(3/2)(0+24)
-36
(0,-36)
x-intercepts: y = 0
0 = -(3/2)(x + 24)
x = -24
(-24,0)
Linear function, range is all real values of y
Depends on your foot size. I’d go with the 8 as when you hike etc your feet can “swell” some.
Since that is only one set of numbers, you would have to start on the origin, then move right on the x-axis twice because the first number is 2, and stay there for the other half of the equation since the other number is 0.
