Isabella caries a box up a metal ramp into the back truck. the ramp is 3 meters long and the bottom makes a 32 degree angle with the ground. how many meters is the ground distance between the bottom of the ramp and the back of the truck?

2.5 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the ramp, the ground and the back of the lorry to form a right triangle where the ramp is the hypotenuse and the distance from the back of the lorry is the adjacent side, x

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle

cos32° = =

Multiply both sides by 3

3 × cos32° = x, hence

x ≈2.5 m

y = 2x

step-by-step explanation:

if you divide each number in the sequence, you'll see that they all have a multiple factor of 2. each number in the series, and any other numbers which may continue, will be multiplied by 2. therefore, y is the next number in the sequence, and x is the current one, so, our formula will be y = 2x.
