Use a Calculator to Find the Function Value F\mathrm { F }

Question 133

Multiple Choice

Use a calculator to find the function value. Give your answer rounded to seven decimal places, if necessary.
-The grade resistance F\mathrm { F } of a car traveling up or down a hill is modeled by the equation F=Wsinθ\mathrm { F } = \mathrm { W } \sin \theta , where WW is the weight of the car and θ\theta is the angle of the hill's grade (θ>0( \theta > 0 for uphill travel, θ<0\theta < 0 for downhill travel) . Find the weight of the car (to the nearest pound) that is traveling on a 2.6- 2.6 ^ { \circ } downhill grade and which has a grade resistance of 140.63lb- 140.63 \mathrm { lb } .
