The American with Disabilities Act (ADA) requires that the slope of a wheelchair ramp be no greater than 1:12. Which of the following is the minimum length of a ramp needed to provide access to a door that is 1.5 feet above the sidewalk?
12 feet
4.5 feet
3 feet
18 feet
Correct Answer : D
We use the given slope to find the minimum length of the ramp. In this case, slope is the ratio of height to length of the lamp. Thus,
If we let x be the minimum length of the ramp. Then,
Substituting the value of slope into the above equation results in,
Solve for value of x by cross-products
X = 18 Feet
Thus, the minimum length of the ramp needed to provide access to a door that is 1.5 high is 18 feet.

To find the area of the room, we form an equation of find an equation relating the length and width of the rectangle. If we let the width of the room to be w, then
Width of the rectangle= w
Length of rectangle=(w+5)
Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width=(w+5)*w
A=w(w+5)
Thus, the area of the rectangular room is w(w+5).

Correct Answer is B
Explanation
we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.
First, add 2 to both sides of equation
The absolute conditions are:
If , a>0, then u=a or u=-a
In this case a=10, which is greater 0.
The first condition becomes
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Divide both sides by 4
The second condition becomes
Add 2 to both sides of the equation
Divide both sides by 4
Then, the value of x is 3 or -2.
Correct Answer is A
Explanation
we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)
(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)
Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.

To find the amount of vanilla in mL, use dimensional analysis of the units of measurements.
Two ways to convert between teaspoon and mL are:
Since we are required to find the amount in mL, we use a cionverstioon that will result in mL. Inspecting the above options, we use the second option and set up an equation in way the unwanted units cancel out and leave the wanted unit we are looking for. Then,
Thus, a recipe of 3 teaspoons equals 14.79 mL.
