Answer:

14 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

10^3 = 1000

14,000 lb/1000 = 14 lb

Since the weight of the elephant is 1000 times the weight of the cat, then the weight of the cat is one-thousandth of the weight of the elephant. To find one-thousandth of a number, divide the number by 1000. 14,000 lb divided by 1000 is 14 lb.

P.S. I feel much better for the cat.

The cat weighs 140 pounds as 14,000 (the elephant) divided by 100 as it is 100 times the amount is 140.

The velocity,v of a missile is related to time t, By the equation v=5t^2+3t+1.calculate the time at which the velocity is minimu
Cloud [144]

Answer:

  • time: t = -0.3
  • minimum: v = 0.55

Step-by-step explanation:

For quadratic ax^2 + bx + c, the extreme value is found at x=-b/(2a). For your quadratic, the minimum is found at ...

  t = -(3)/(2(5))

  t = -0.3 . . . . . time of minimum velocity

__

The value of velocity at that time is ...

  v = 5(-0.3)^2 +3(-0.3) +1 = 5(.09) -.9 +1

  v = 0.55 . . . . . value of minimum velocity

Write the following as an algebraic expression. Then simplify.
ch4aika [34]
X+(x+1)=y. The first integer would be x, and the second would be one more than x, so x+1. I'm not sure if there's a specific number they are supposed to total, so I just set it equal to y. If there is a specific number, just replace y with that number. Hope this helps!

Let f(x) = x + 3 and g(x) = 1/x The graph of (gºf)(x) is shown below what is the range of ( gof) (x) .
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

The range of the function (g\°f)(x) is

B.  is all real numbers except y=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions:

f(x)=x+3

g(x)=\frac{1}{x}

To find the range of (g\°f)(x).

Solution:

In order to find (g\°f)(x) , we will plugin f(x) in function g(x).

(g\°f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g\°f)(x)=\frac{1}{x+3}

The graph of the function (g\°f)(x) shows that

1) As x approaches -3 (but never touches the line x=-3), y tends to positive or negative infinity.

2) As y approaches 0 (but never touches the line y=0) , x tends to positive or negative infinity.

Thus, the range of the function is all real numbers except y=0
