Answer:

t_a = 7 s

t_w = 5 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The average speed in air v_a = 16 m/s

- The average speed in water v_w = 3 m/s

- The total distance D = 127 m

- The total time T = 12 s

Find:

How long did the stone fall in air and how long did it fall in the water?

Solution:

- Lets time taken by stone to drop through air as t_a = t_a.

- The time taken in water would be t_w = (12 - t_a)

- The total distance covered can be calculated as:

                            D = v_a*t_a+ v_w*(12 - t_a)

                            127 = 16*t_a + 3*(12 - t_a)

Simplify and solve for t:

                            91 = 16*t_a - 3t_a

                            13*t_a = 91

                            t_a = 7 s

                            t_w = 5 s

Solve 4y-1=7 plz step by step
miv72 [106K]
Hi,

Here we are going to be working on isolating the variable y, and seeing what its value equates to.

To do this, we must try and get the variable y on one side of the equation by itself. 

Let's look at step one -

<em>4y - 1 = 7
</em>
We want to get rid of the 1 since we need to isolate x. We do this by doing the inverse of its operation. Since 1 is negative, if we add positive 1 to it - we will get 0, thereby being closer to isolating y.

However, when we do something on one side of the equation we must do it on the other. This means we will add 1 on both sides.

<em>4y - 1 + 1 = 7 + 1
</em>
<em>4y = 8
</em>
<em />Remember how I mentioned we do the inverse of the operation? In this case, 4 is multiplying y. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. So, to get rid of the 4 - we must divide 4y by 4, on both sides.

<em>4y / 4 = 8 / 4
</em>
<em>y = 2
</em>
We now know the variable y is equal to 2. 

Hopefully, this helps.

Is 5x-3&gt;5x-3 an identity or a contradiction

Answer:

contradiction

Step-by-step explanation:

they are both the same thing so how can they contradict? they can because the sign in the middle is greater than. if you put 1 in as x, you will get 2 is greater than 2 which does not make sense
