What value of x is in the solution set of 2(3x – 1) ≥ 4x – 6?

1 answer:

4 0

2(3x - 1) ≥ 4x - 6 Remove the brackets on the left.
6x - 2 ≥ 4x - 6 Subtract 4x from both sides.
6x - 4x - 2 ≥ - 6 combine like terms on the left.
2x - 2 ≥ - 6 Add 2 to both sides
2x ≥ - 6+ 2
2x ≥ -4 Divide by 2
x ≥ - 4/2
x ≥ - 2 answer <<<<<<<<

Check
2(3*-2 - 1) ≥ 4x - 6
2(-6 - 1) ≥ 4(-2) - 6
2(-7) ≥- 8 - 6
- 14 = - 14 and this checks.

Compare and contrast electric potential energy and electric potential difference? Explain.

forsale [732]

Answer:

Electric Potential Energy:

The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric firld is called Electric Potential Energy

Electric Potential Difference:

The amount of work done in carrying a unit charge from one point to an other in an electric field is called Electric Potential Difference.

Relation:

Relation between Electric potential and electrical potential energy is given by

$\delta V=\frac{PE}{q}$

Here PE represents Electric potential energy

and $\delta V$ is Electric potential difference

it means electric potential difference is the difference in electric potential energy divided by the charge.

Gravity can be described as (2 points)

ladessa [460]

Answer:

"the force of attraction between two objects"

Explanation:

According to Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation, gravity is a force of attraction acting between objects that possess mass. The fact that we only observe gravitational attraction (as opposed to repulsion) makes gravity unique among the known forces.

Calculate the increase in potential energy of a 60.0-kg man who climbs a ladder 10.0 meters high

andriy [413]

Potential energy = (mass) · (gravity) · (height)

PE = (60 kg) · (9.8 m/s²) · (10 m)

PE = (60 · 9.8 · 10) · (kg · m²/s² )

PE = 5,880 joules
