The sum of two numbers is 32. One number is 3 times as large as the other. What are the numbers?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer: 8, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the sum of two numbers is 32 and one number is 3 times as large as the other, the first number can be defined as x and the second number is 3x.

Divide 32 by (3+1) = 4 and you get 8, which is x.

The second number is 3(8) = 24.

Answer:

The velocities after 739 s of firing of each engine would be 6642.81 m/s in the x direction and 5306.02 in the y direction

Step-by-step explanation:

For a constant acceleration: $v_{f}=v_{0}+at$ , where $v_{f}$ is the final velocity in a direction after the acceleration is applied, $v_{0}$ is the initial velocity in that direction before the acceleration is applied, a is the acceleration applied in such direction, and t is the amount of time during where that acceleration was applied.
Then for the x direction it is known that the initial velocity is $v_{0x} =$ 5320 m/s, the acceleration (the applied by the engine) in x direction is $a_{x}$ 1.79 m/s2 and, the time during the acceleration was applied (the time during the engines were fired) of the is 739 s. Then: $v_{fx}=v_{0x}+a_{x}t=5320\frac{m}{s} +1.79\frac{m}{s^{2} }*739s=6642.81\frac{m}{s}$
In the same fashion, for the y direction, the initial velocity is $v_{0y} =$ 0 m/s, the acceleration in y direction is $a_{y}$ 7.18 m/s2, and the time is the same that in the x direction, 739 s, then for the final velocity in the y direction: $v_{fy}=v_{0y}+a_{y}t=0\frac{m}{s} +7.18\frac{m}{s^{2} }*739s=5306.02\frac{m}{s}$
