Caution:  you need to use the same units of measurement throughout.  If the spring stretches by 21 cm when a 135 newton object is attached, then you must ask for the mass (in newtons) of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm.

We will need to assume that the spring is not stretched at all if and when no object is attached to the spring.

Write the ratio

                21.0 cm        135 newtons
               ------------- = --------------------
                 62.1 cm               x

Solve this for x.  This x value represents the mass of a fish that would stretch the spring by 62.1 cm.  You can cancel "cm" in the equation above:

21.0      135 newtons
------ = --------------------
62.1               x

Then 21.0x = (62.1)(135 newtons).  Divide both sides of this equation by 21.0 to solve it for x.

Answer:

399.21 newtons or 40.73 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this you first have to do a rule of threes to calculate how much would the fish will weight compared with the stretching of the spring:

\frac{21}{162} =\frac{62.1}{weight} \\weight=\frac{62.1*162}{21}=399.21 Newtons

So the weight would be 399.21 newtons and it would have 40.73 kilograms in mass.

What is log6^e f rewritten using the power property?
marishachu [46]

Given expression : log_6e^f ..

We need to apply power property of logs to rewrite it.

According to log rule of exponents:

log_b a^n = n log_b(a)

If we compare given expression with the rule the exponent part is f, base is 6.

Therefore, we need to bring exponent f in front of log.

Therefore, log_6e^f  = flog_6 e.

<h3>And correct option is second option flog_6 e.</h3>

Find the slope of the line through each pair (1,-19),(-2,-7)
expeople1 [14]

hello i see that no one has answered your question yet well im here to help:)

(1,-19),(-2,-7)

so here one way you can find the slope

i usually always use this to help me to keep it in order

------------------

(X1,Y1)(X2,Y2)

   X2-X1

   Y2-Y1

use this and your garanteed to get the right answer everytime

------------------

X = -2 – 1 = -3

Y = -7 – -19 = 12

once you do that you divide if possible

12/-3

which gives you -4

so your answer is -4

its really not hard you just got to get use to it

hope it help you:)
