A ski slope is built on a mountainside and curves upward from the ground level to a height of h = 176 m and has a horizontal distance of / = 240 m along the base. The ski slope is modeled by the equation y = Ax , where x is the horizontal distance from the bottom of the ski slope measured along the base of the mountain and y is the vertical height of the ski slope at the distance x. (a) Find A. (Express numbers in exact form. Use symbolic notation and fractions where needed.) A (b) If a skier skis directly downhill from the top of the ski slope to the bottom, how far does she travel? (Use decimal notation. Give your answer to one decimal place.)
