5. Ellen, a civil engineer, is designing a suspension bridge. There will be a suspnsion cable on each side of the bridge, with support wire hanging down from the cable at different distances, as shown in the table. Distance from the Centre of Bridge (m) 10 20 30 40 50 60 Length of Support Wire (m) 5.56 7.12 9.68 13.24 17.80 23.36
a) Plot the given data into graphing technology. What does the domain represent and what does the range represent in this situation? (1).
Domain: Range:
b) What type of function do you think would best represent this data, and why? (1)
f) Regardless of your answer in part (b), determine a quadratic regression function to model this data. Write your function below and give a sketch in the space provided. (2)
c) Using your regression equation, determine the length of a supporting wire that is 48m away from the centre of the bridge. Is this interpolation or extrapolation? Explain. (3)
d) Using the graph of your model, determine how far away a support wire is from the centre of the bridge if its length is 15m. (1)

I've been working on this for a few days and i just don't understand, it's due in a few hours. you. the direction of a vector is defined as the angle of the vector in relation to a horizontal line. as a standard, this angle is measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis. the direction or angle of v in the diagram is α. part a: how can you use trigonometric ratios to calculate the direction α of a general vector v = < x, y> similar to the diagram? part b suppose that vector v lies in quadrant ii, quadrant iii, or quadrant iv. how can you use trigonometric ratios to calculate the direction (i.e., angle) of the vector in each of these quadrants with respect to the positive x-axis? the angle between the vector and the positive x-axis will be greater than 90 degrees in each case. part c now try a numerical problem. what is the direction of the vector w = < -1, 6 > ?
