Since there is no initial condition, the exact value of v cannot be determined, but you can set the equation up for a general evaluation of the situation.
s = 1/2a^2*v+c
First you need to subtract c from both sides to get
s-c = 1/2a^2*v
then you can just divide both sides by 1/2a^2 to get v
(2(s-c))/a^2=v
when dividing a fraction, such as 1/2, make sure to keep in mind that you're really multiplying the flipped version, so that dividing by 1/2 means multiplying by 2.
In algebra the notation is basically just a number, for example, 10, and we take it to the 10th power, you just take the decimal at the end of the 10 and move it 10 spaces to the right, if the number is negative you will move the decimal to the left 10 spaces, the 10th power is a variable and is different with every question
Answer:
Cost of 18 pounds candy = $22.5
Cost of 10 pounds candy = $12.5
Cost of 1 pound of candies = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
6 pounds of butterscotch candies cost $7.50
⇔ 1 pound of same candy costs $1.25
Now, we need to find the cost of 18 pounds of candy:
as, the cost of 6 pounds candy = $7.50
⇔ Cost of 6 x 3 = 18 pounds candy = $7.50 x 3 = $22.5
Cost of 10 pounds candy = 10 x (Cost of 1 pound candy)
= 10 x ($1.25) = $12.5
The unit rate for butterscotch candies = Cost of 1 pound of candies
= $1.25
