Did you figure out the answer yet?
Addition/subtraction of fractions requires that they share a common denominator...
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Mechanical energy (ME) is Kinetic energy + potential energy
Where
Kinetic Energy (KE) = 1/2 * m * v^2
where m is the mass (in kg) and v is the speed of the object (in m/s)
and
Potential Energy (PE) = m*g*h
Where m is the mass (in kg) and g is the gravitational constant (9.81 m/s) and h is the height (in meters)
Hence
ME = KE + PE (note the pendulum DOES NOT have any speed, so v = 0, and thus KE = 0)
So,

Hence, Mechanical Energy is 9.8 Joules (rounded to 1 decimal place). Correct answer is A.
6x + y = -2
y = -3x + 1
Substitute the value of y in first equation,
6x -3x + 1 = -2
3x = -2-1
x = -3/3
x = -1
Now, Substitute it in 2nd equation,
y = -3(-1) + 1
y = 3+ 1 = 4
Coordinates would be: (-1,4) Mark that point and join with origin.
Hope this helps!
