Answer:

46 customers

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of original customers is n, we can write the following equation:

98 = 2n + 6

92 = 2n

46 = n

Calculate the moment of the 250 n force on the handle of the monkey wrench
vivado [14]
We are given with
250 N force
F = 250 N
The usual monkey wrench has a length of 11 cm or 0.11 m
d = 0.11
Therefore, the moment is
M = F d
M = 250 (0.11) = 27.5 N m

Equations must be written in the following format (using the number 20 as an example): Addition x + 20 = y; Subtraction x - 20 =
inn [45]

Answer:

In the graph we can find two points, lets select:

(2, 15) and (4, 30)

Those are the first two points.

Now, for two pairs (x1, y1) (x2, y2)

The slope of the linear equation y = s*x + b that passes trough those points is:

s = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

So the slope for our equation is

s = (30 - 15)/(4 - 2) = 15/2

then our linear equation is

y = (15/2)*x + b

now we can find b by imposing that when x = 2, y must be 15 (for the first point we selected)

15 = (15/2)*2 + b = 15 + b

b = 15 - 15 = 0

then our equation is:

y = (15/2)*x

Where we used a division and a multiplication.

Please help i don't understand!

Answer: 9. x=-3/2     10. x=2

                   x= 5/2           x=5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

9. Factor the equation:

How: put 4x^2 in the bottom left box and -15 in the upper right box.

then multiply 4x^2 x -15 = -60x^2 and put your answer in the top center box of the diamond.

Put the -4x from the equation in the bottom box. Then list out factors that multiply to the top box (-60x^2) and add to the bottom box (-4x) The two factors are -10 and 6

-10 x 6 = -60

-10 + 6 = -4

Put -12x and -5x in the remaining white boxes and find what numbers multiply to each.

I attached a picture. The colored dots correspond with each other.

Eg: Orange dot x orange dot = number in white square

Now you get the two factors (2x+3)(2x-5)

Set both of these equal to 0 and solve

0=2x+3     0=2x-5

x= -3/2       x= 5/2

Do the same for the other problem

Why do you divide by 60 after calculating the area of the trapezoid (to calculate the distance)? I got 900 but I don’t know why
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What you are trying to do is a nice way to solve this problem. Without knowing any physics, you are using what math you know to get the answer. You are actually very close to being correct, and you are right. You do have to divide by 60.

Here's why and it is the one bit of physics you have to know.

The speed is km/hour. That word hour is the culprit. Your time is in minutes and you have to get it into hours. In physics, the units have to be consistent.

So ...

b1 = 19 minutes which is 19 min [1 hour / 60 minutes] = 19/60 = 0.31667 hour

b2 = 26 minutes which is 26 min [ 1 hour/60 minutes] =  26/60 = 0.4333 hour

h = 40 km/hour

Area = (0.31667 hour + 0.4333 hour)*40 km/hour /2

Area = 0.75 hour * 40 km/hr //2

Area = 15 km
