Answer:
x = 5/3
Step-by-step explanation:
You ALWAYS want your term to be by itself!! So what you need to do is move your constant away from it.
Step 1: Adjust as needed, subtract 10 from both sides of your equation. It should end up like this.
-3x = 5 - 10
Step 2: Solve as needed before continuing equation.
-3x = -5
Step 3: Now you need to get your term by itself. You should divide -3 on both sides of your equation so you should get something like this.
x = -5 / -3
Step 4: You're basically done now! Just simplify! NEGATIVES CROSS EACH OTHER OUT!!!
x = 5/3 OR 1.6
<em>KEY:</em>
<em>Negative and Negative = Positive</em>
<em>Negative and Positive = Negative</em>
<em>Positive and Positive = Positive</em>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
Mass of a sample, m = 12 g
Heat absobed by the sample, Q = 96 J
It was heated from 20°C to 40°C.
We need to find the specific heat of a material. The heat absorbed by a sample is given by :
So, the specific heat of the material is 
.
Use the volume formula
V=l•w•h
Soo…
V=8•12•2 and that would be your answer
