The answer that you should get 35as^2-30s
If wholesale cost is x, then retail is x plus the percentage change in x. (1 + .34)x = 1.34x.
We use the Work formula to solve for the unknown in the problem which is W = F x d. First, we solve for the Net Force acting on the car. The Net Force is the summation of all forces acting on the object. For this case, we assume that Friction Force is negligible thus the Net Force is equal to:
F = mgsinα in terms of SI units and in terms of english units we have F = m(g/g₀)(sin α) where g₀ is the proportionality factor, 32.174 ft lb-m / lb-f s²
F = 2500 (32.174/32.174) (sin 12°) = 519.78 lb
W = Fd = 519.78 lb (400 ft) = 207912 ft - lb or 20800 ft-lb
There's a really easy way to convert any units to other units.
Right now, we have the fraction (4 miles) / (2 hours).
We want to find a fraction that's exactly equal to that one,
but has the units of (miles/minute) or maybe (feet/minute).
Just take the original fraction, and multiply it by some other
fractions.
Each fraction you multiply it by must have the value of ' 1 ' so
you don't change the value of the original fraction. But it can
have different units, that cancel with other units to eventually
give you the units you want.
(4 miles / 2 hours) times (1 hour / 60 minutes)
The second fraction is equal to ' 1 ', because the top and the bottom
have the same value ... 1 hour is the same thing as 60 minutes.
Multiply the fractions: (4 miles x 1 hour) / (2 hour x 60 minutes)
Now you can cancel 'hour' from the top and the bottom, and you have
(4 miles x 1) / (2 x 60 minutes)
= (4 miles) / (120 minutes)
= (4 / 120) mile/minute = 0.0333... mile / minute .
Let's do it again, go a little farther, and get an answer that
might mean more and feel more like an answer.
(4 miles) / (2 hours) x (5280 feet / mile) x (1 hour / 60 minutes)
The 2nd and 3rd fractions both have the value of ' 1 ', because
the top is equal to the bottom.
Multiply all three fractions:
(4 miles x 5280 feet x 1 hour) / (2 hours x 1 mile x 60 minutes)
You can cancel both 'mile' and 'hour' out of the top and bottom,
and look what you have left:
(4 x 5280 feet x 1) / (2 x 1 x 60 minutes)
= (4 x 5280) / (2 x 60) feet / minutes
= (21,120 / 120) feet/minute = 176 feet per minute
[(14,7 + 5,9) x 5,8] / 2 = 59,74 cm^2
