The clothes weigh 14.77 kilograms.

Given:
Weight of suitcase = 50 pounds
Towels = 20% of weight
Shoes = 15% of weight
Clothes = 65% of weight

convert pounds to kilograms using proportion:

<u>pounds</u>        <u>2.2</u> = <u>50</u>
kilograms       1           x

2.2x = 50 ⇒ x = 50/2.2 ⇒ x = 22.73 kgs

Clothes : 22.73 kgs * 65% = 14.77 kgs
Towels  : 22.73 kgs * 20% =   4.55 kgs
Shoes   : 22.73 kgs * 15% =   3.41 kgs

While setting up a fireworks display, you have a tool at the top of the
atroni [7]

Answer:

0.79 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given there is a tool at the top of the building which is dropped by a worker and it follows the following equation at every instant of time .

h(t)=-16t^{2} +h_{0}

where h_{0} =10 feet

We know that this height is measured from the base of the building which means that when the tool reaches the bottom of the building it has h = 0 feet.

Let this be done at time t

h(t) = 0

-16t^{2} +10=0

t^{2} =\frac{10}{16}

t=\frac{\sqrt{10} }{4}

t = 0.79 sec

Therefore the total time taken by the tool to reach the bottom of the building is 0.79 sec.

How many solutions dose 3x+2=2x+2+x have explain why below remember explain
valkas [14]

Answer:

All real numbers are solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

3x+2=2x+2+x

3x+2=(2x+x)+(2)(Combine Like Terms)

3x+2=3x+2

3x+2=3x+2

Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides.

3x+2−3x=3x+2−3x

2=2

Step 3: Subtract 2 from both sides.

2−2=2−2

0=0
