What is the weight of a ring tailed lemur that has a mass of 10 kg? Use w = mg (g = -9.8 m/s^2)

Answer:

None of these

Step-by-step explanation:

Normally, we consider "weight" to be the force due to gravity that an object exerts in the downward direction. It has a positive value equal to the magnitude of "mg". In this instance, it would be ...

... |(10 kg)·(-9.8 N/kg)| = |-98 N| = 98 N

___

However, you're specifically told to use ...

... w = mg

... w = (10 kg)(-9.8 m/s²) = -98 N

This selection is not among those offered.

F(-4)=8 and f(-1)=4 write the linear equation

kobusy [5.1K]

$f(-4)=8\to(-4,\ 8)\\\\f(-1)=4\to(-1,\ 4)$

The point-slope formula of a line:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{4-8}{-1-(-4)}=\dfrac{-4}{3}=-\dfrac{4}{3}\\\\y-8=-\dfrac{4}{3}(x-(-4))\\\\y-8=-\dfrac{4}{3}x-\dfrac{16}{3}\ \ \ \ |+8\\\\y=-\dfrac{4}{3}x-\dfrac{16}{3}+\dfrac{24}{3}\\\\y=-\dfrac{4}{3}x+\dfrac{8}{3}\ \ \ |\cdot3\\\\3y=-4x+8\ \ \ |+4x\\\\4x+3y=8$

The slope-intercept form: $y=-\dfrac{4}{3}x+\dfrac{8}{3}$

The standard form: $4x+3y=8$

The Greek method for finding the equation of the tangent line to a circle uses the fact that at any point on the circle the line

Alina [70]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given circle has equation as

$x^2+y^2 =49$

Center = P(0,0)

The point of contact of tangent = $(1,4\sqrt{3} )$ Q

Since tangent is perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact, we have

Slope = $\frac{4\sqrt{3} }{1}$ as slope of perpendicular to tangent

So tangent slope would be

-1/slope of this line

= $\frac{-1}{4\sqrt{3} }$

We have point on this line as given point

So using point slope form equation of tangent is

$y-4\sqrt{3} =\frac{-1}{4\sqrt{3} } (x-1)\\4\sqrt{3} y -48 =-x+1\\x+4\sqrt{3} y= 49$

Consider △ABC.

VashaNatasha [74]

Answers:

∠A=45° & ∠B=45°

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle ABC, all angles are less than 180° but their sum is 180°

For the trigonometric statements

sin(A)=cos(B)

sin(B)=cos(A)

These are true when these angles that are A and B are equal and on these angles the sin and cos value must be same.

Hence, both angles are of 45°

For Bill's birthday his mom is bringing donuts to school.

kipiarov [429]

36 donuts (2 1/2 dozen) = $8.00

So, you divide 8 by 36 and you get about 22¢ for each donut. Then, you do .22 x 12 which equals $2.64.

One dozen donuts = $2.64
