Answer:

756 feet pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of the chain, L = 18 feet

weight of chain, W = 84 pound

If we lift the centre of gravity of the chain, it will entirely lift up. The centre of gravity of the uniform chain is at its mid point. So, the work done

W = weight x half of length

W = 84 x 9

W = 756 feet pound

Lynna [10]
To calculate the percentage increase: First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

45-32 = 13 / 32 *100= 40.625 round to the nearest percent is 41%

Multiply each equation by a constant that would help to eliminate the y terms.
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Therefore the required resulting equation is

6x-15y=-63\\-15x+15y=90

6 x minus 15 y = negative 63.

Negative 15 x + 15 y = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2x-5y=-21         ......................Equation ( 1 )

3x-3y=-18         ......................Equation ( 2 )

To Find:

Expression after multiplying to eliminate y term,

Solution:

So to eliminate 'y' term we need to multiply equation 1 by a constant 3 and equation 2 by a constant -5,  such that equations  becomes

3(2x-5y)=3\times -21\\\\6x-15y=-63 .....( 1 )

-5(3x-3y)=-5\times -18\\\\-15x+15y=90  .....( 2 )

so now by adding new equation one and two we can eliminate y term that means -15y and +15y will get cancel,

Therefore the required resulting equation is

6x-15y=-63\\-15x+15y=90

6 x minus 15 y = negative 63.

Negative 15 x + 15 y = 90
