The child at 5 years old would weight: 60 lb (27.16 kg) If he continues gaining weight a that rate

To solve this problem we will use a rule of three with the problem information:

3 years-------- 36 lb child's weight

5 years -------- x

Applying the rule of three we get:

x = ( 5 years * 36 lb child's weigh) / 3 years

x = 60 lb

By converting the weight units from lb to kg we have:

x = 60 lb * 16.3 kg/36 lb

x = 27.16 kg

<h3>What is rule of three?</h3>

It describes the proportionality of 3 known data and an unknown data. When you have more than 3 known facts that are involved in the proportionality, it is known as a compound rule. The rule of three is also known as a direct proportions.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Absolute advantage is the capability of a commercial entity to produce goods using fewer resources compared to rivals. Using the same inputs, an entity with an absolute advantage produces a larger output compared to competitors. It means the firm has a lower marginal cost of production. Therefore, its products will have the lowest prices in the market.

Two bodies fall freely from different heights and reach the ground simultaneously. The time of descent for the first body is 1s
jok3333 [9.3K]
The initial height of the first body is given by:
h_1 =  \frac{1}{2}gt^2
where
g is the gravitational acceleration
t is the time it takes for the body to reach the ground
Substituting t=1 s, we find
h_1 =  \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(1 s)^2=4.9 m

The second body takes takes t=2 s to reach the ground, so it was located at an initial height of
h_2 =  \frac{1}{2}(9.81 m/s^2)(2 s)^2=19.6 m

The second body started its fall 1 second before the first body, therefore when the second body started its fall, the first body was located at its initial height, i.e. at 4.9 m from the ground.
