Question:
The cost of 12 kg sugar is $240 what will be the cost of 3 kg sugar.
Given:
- Cost of 12 kg sugar = $240
To find?
Answer :
<u>To find </u><u>c</u><u>o</u><u>s</u><u>t</u><u> </u><u>of</u><u> </u><u>3kg sugar first we have to find cost of 1 kg sugar</u><u>.</u>
- Cost of 1 kg sugar = Cost of total no. of sugar ÷Total sugar
- Cost of 1 kg sugar = $240/12
- Cost of 1 kg sugar = $20
<u>Now Let's find cost of 3 kg sugar</u>
Cost of 3kg sugar = total no of sugar ×Cost of 1 kg sugar
Cost of 3kg sugar = 3×$20
Cost of 3kg sugar = $60
In this question, you are only able to cancel out the (x + 5). The others are unable to be cancelled.
To do this you need to work backwards. if you note the number as 'n' you can put
7n = 5600
to find n you simply divide both sides by 7 getting
n = 5600/7
n = 800
Divide to get a low form of a fraction.
13 divide by 13 = 1
78/13 = 6
1/6 would therefore, be the lowest form
Answer:
<em>The speed of sound at 20°C is 343.42 m/s.</em>
<em>You have to wait 1.75 seconds to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Speed of Sound</u>
The speed of sound is not constant with temperature. Generally speaking, the greater the temperature, the greater the speed of sound.
The approximate speed of sound in dry air at temperatures T near 0°C is calculated from:

The air is at T=20°C, thus the speed of sound is:


The speed of sound at 20°C is 343.42 m/s.
To calculate the time to hear the sound after the batter hits the ball, we use the formula of constant speed motion:

Where d is the distance and t is the time. Solving for t:

Substituting the values v=343.42 m/s and d=600 m:

t = 1.75 s
You have to wait 1.75 seconds to hear the sound of the bat hitting the ball
