Answer:

42+65+x≥160

x≥53

Step-by-step explanation:

IF the baseball team wants to collect at least 160, it means they want to collect 160 or more cans. If they brought 42 cans on Monday and 65 cans on Wednesday, let x be the amount of cans they must bring on Friday.

∴

42+65+x≥160

we can solve for x:

107+x≥160

x≥53

Therefore they have to bring 53 or more cans to ensure they collect atleast 160

If they collect 65 on Monday, 42 on Wednesday and the rest on Friday, then we can write it down as:

65 + 42 + x ≥ 160
107 + x ≥ 160                 / - 107 (both sides)
x ≥ 53

So the team needs to collect at least 53 cans on Friday.

A tunnel is in the shape of a parabola. The maximum height is 16 m and it is 16 m wide at the base, as shown below.
NeX [460]
Vertex at the origin and opening down → y=ax^2
Width: w=16
x=w/2→x=16/2→x=8
x=8, y=-16→y=ax^2→-16=a(8)^2→-16=a(64)→-16/64=a(64)/64→-1/4=a→a=-1/4

y=ax^2→y=-(1/4)x^2

7 m from the edge of the tunnel → x=w/2-7=8 m-7 m→x=1 m
x=1→y=-(1/4)x^2=-(1/4)(1)^2=-(1/4)(1)→y=-1/4

Vertical clearance: 16-1/4=16-0.25→Vertical clearance=15.75 m

Please, see the attached file.

Answer: Third option 15.75 m

Xelga [282]
To determine the part of the triangle that corresponds to the parts of the other triangle, we can just see how they are arranged in the equation,
                                    RST = WXY
The corresponding side of side ST is equal to side XY. Thus, the answer is letter C.
