Robert needs to cut four shelves from a board that is 2.5 meters long the second shelf 18 centimeters longer than twice the leng
th of the first shelf the thrid shelf is 12 cm shorter than the the first shelf the remaining shelf is 4 cm longer than the first shelf if robert must use the entire 2.5 meter board for the shelves egat is the length of the second shelf in cm
Total length of the board = 2.5 meters = (2.5 * 100) cm = 250 cm Let us assume the length of the first shelf = x Then Length of the second shelf = 2x + 18 Length of the third shelf = x - 12 Length of the fourth shelf = x + 4 Now we can easily get the equation as x + 2x + 18 + x - 12 + x + 4 = 250 5x + 10 = 250 5x = 250 - 10 5x = 240 x = 240/5 = 48 cm length of the second shelf = 2x + 18 = 2(48) + 18 = 96 + 18 = 114 cm So the length of the second shelf is 114 cm.
<span>In this expression, the variable ’t’ stands in for any possible value of seconds. Therefore, since you know how long it takes the object to fall in seconds, you can put this into the expression. 16 x (4^2) = 256. The distance is 256ft.</span>
