It represents the value of the expression when the variable (t) is zero.

_____

If this is supposed to be an expression for ballistic motion, the constant could represent the initial height of the object in feet. There is nothing in your problem statement indication what this expression is suppose to represent. It could be pennies of profit for selling t trinkets, for all we know—where the constant term represents some initial balance you have before you sell any.

It can represent many things depending on what context the expression is used in. Most commonly, the constant term represents the y-intercept of the expression when it is graphed e.g. the graph of y = -16t² - 8t + 24 has a y-intercept of 24.

It can also represent the initial value if the expression is used in a word problem context

hjlf
Given that o<span>ne Friday night, Roman and Malou are busy studying for their Logic exam. Meanwhile, Hadji just tweeted a picture of himself eating crispy pata and sisig. Jeff is sound asleep in his dorm room.

Part A:

The truth value of </span>"Either Roman has a date with Malou, or Jeff is sleeping or Hadji is eating." is obtained as follows:

From the scenario, the truth value of the individual statements are as follows:

<span>Roman has a date with Malou is True
</span>
<span>Jeff is sleeping is True
</span>
<span>Hadji is eating is True

Thus, the truth value of "True" or "True" or "True" is True.

Therefore, the truth value of "</span><span>Either Roman has a date with Malou, or Jeff is sleeping or Hadji is eating." is True.



Part B:

</span>The truth value of "Either Jeff is sleeping or Hadji is not eating" is obtained as follows:

From the scenario, the truth value of the individual statements are as follows:

<span>Jeff is sleeping is True
</span>
<span>Hadji is not eating is False

Thus, the truth value of "True" or "False" is True.</span>

Therefore, the truth value of "Either Jeff is sleeping or Hadji is not eating" is True.



Part C:

The truth value of "Roman and Malou are on a date and Jeff is sleeping, or Hadji is not eating." is obtained as follows:

From the scenario, the truth value of the individual statements are as follows:

Roman and Malou are on a date is True

<span>Jeff is sleeping is True
</span>
<span>Hadji is not eating is False

The truth value of "True" and "True" is True.
The truth value of "True" or "False" is True.

Thus, the truth value of ("True" and "True") or "False" is True.
</span>
Therefore, the truth value of "Roman and Malou are on a date and Jeff is sleeping, or Hadji is not eating." is True.

500g:3kg.Give answer in lowest term​
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to convert the units, since kilograms and grams aren't the same unit. 1000 grams=1 kilogram. Keep that in mind, and lets move on.

So, that means 3 kilograms=3,000 grams. Let's rewrite our ratio.

500g:3,000g

So now they're the same units, but it isn't simplified. This last parts easy. To simplify a ratio, find the number you can divided both number with. In this situation, that number is 500. 500 divided by 500= 1, and 3,000 divided by 500= 6.

Final Simplified Ratio: 1g:6g

Hope this helped :)
