Answer: The mass of each passenger is 550 kg.

The mass of front decoration = 200 Kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the mass of each passenger be 'x'.

Let the mass of front decoration be 'y'.

So, Number of passenger = 6

Mass of 6 passengers and front decoration = 3500 kg.

Number of passengers = 4

Mass of 4 passengers and front decoration = 2400 kg.

According to question, it becomes,

6x+y=3500\\\\\implies y=3500-6x----------------(1)\\\\4x+y=2400\\\\\implies y=2400-4x---------------(2)

so, From Eq(1) and Eq(2), we have,

3500-6x=y=2400-4x\\\\3500-6x=2400-4x\\\\3500-2400=-4x+6x\\\\1100=2x\\\\x=\frac{1100}{2}=550

Hence, the mass of each passenger is 550 kg.

The mass of front decoration = 3500-550(6)=200 Kg.

A cutting tool fails due to flank wear while machining. It is observed that the tool life at a cutting speed of 160 m/min is 5 m
Ahat [919]

Answer:

The answer is:

30 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

at 160 m/min, tool life = 5 min.

at 120 m/min, tool life = 17 min.

This means that as the speed reduced from 160 m/min to 120 m/min, the tool life increased from 5 min. to 17 min, hence the difference between the changes are:

speed = 160 - 120 = 40 m/min

tool life = 17 - 5 = 12 min.

Therefore, it can be concluded that a change of speed of 40 m/min, increases the tool life by 12 min.

40 m/min = 12 min

∴ 1 m/min = 12/40 min.

∴ 100 m/min = 12/40 × 100 = 0.3 × 100 =30 min.

Figure B is a scaled copy of Figure A.
elixir [45]

Answer:

The scale factor would be 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 of the sides both are 4 units.

If you go to figure B, it got smaller.

So in this case, you would divide.

On figure B, 2 of the sides are 2 units.

If you did it in reverse, you would get 2 because 2 times 2 is 4.

But we divide, so 4/2 is 2, so the scale factor would be:

1/2

Hope this helped!

And brainliest pls :)

ch4aika [34]

Answer:  1773.6 yards   5320.8 feet  64324.8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:  

1 mile in yards = 1760                                                                                         40.8 feet in yards = 13.6      1760 + 13.6 =<u> 1773.6 yards </u>

1 mile in feet = 5280 + 40.8 = <u> 5320.8 feet </u>

1 mile in inches  = 63360

40.8 feet in inches = 964.8

63360 + 964.8 = <u>64324.8 inches </u>

<u>hope this helps :) </u>
