Find the value of 15.0 N in pounds. Use the conversions 1slug=14.59kg and 1ft=0.3048m .
1 answer:
The value of 15.0 N in pounds = 3.375 lb
<h3><em>Further explanation </em></h3>
The derivative magnitude is a quantity derived from the principal amount
7 main quantities have been determined based on international standards, namely:
- 1. Length, meters (m)
- 2. Time, second (s)
- 3. Mass, kilograms (kg)
- 4. Temperature, kelvin (K)
- 5. Light intensity, candela (cd)
- 6. Electric current, ampere (A)
- 7. Amount of substance, mol (m)
Newton (N) is one unit of force (F) which is a quantity derived from mass (m), length (l) and time (s)
Newton can be expressed in terms of Kg m / s²
Formula used:
F = m. a
N = kg. m / s²
In the British system there are units of slug, feet, and pounds so that the unit of force becomes:
F = m. a
Lb = slug. ft / s²
The relationship between the two-unit systems above is:
1 kg = 0.0685 slug
1 slug = 14.59 kg
1 newton = 0.225 lb
1 lb = 4,448 newtons
1 ft = 0.3048 m
So if we change 15 N to lb by using slug and ft
15 N = 15 * (1 / 14.59) slug * (1 / 0.3048) ft / s²
15 N = 3,375 slug ft / s ²
15 N = 3,375 lb
or we convert directly:
15 N = 15 * 0.225 lb
15 N = 3,375 lb

Given:
Jeffery babysits for 4 dollars per hour and works as a math tutor for 7 dollars per hour.
He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week.
He wants to make at least 65 dollars.
To find:
The system of inequalities to represent this situation.
Solution:
Let x be the number of hours he babysits per week and y be the number of hours h works as a math tutor.
He is only allowed to work 13 hours total per week. It means sum of x and y must be less than or equal to 13.
He wants to make at least 65 dollars. It means total earnings must be greater than or equal to 65.
Number of hours can not be negative.
