A car traveling at 28 m/s starts to decelerate steadily. It comes to a complete stop in 7 seconds. What is its acceleration?

The car's acceleration can be modeled by the following formula:

a = \frac{v_f - v_i}{t}

vf represents the final velocity of the car. vi represents the initial velocity of the car. t represents the total time it took for the car to get from its initial to its final velocity.

We already have our values for our velocities and time. Plug them into the equation:

\text{Initial velocity: 28 m/s}^{2}
\text{Final velocity: 0 m/s}^2
\text{Time: 7 seconds}

\frac{0-28}{7} = -\frac{28}{7} = \boxed{-4}

The acceleration of the car is -4 m/s, or -4 meters per second.

The function that models the scenario is
v = init_v + acceleration * time

Plug the values into the equation,
0 = 28 + a * 7 => -28 = a * 7 => a = - 28/7 m/s.

A bag contains 10 marbles. Four of the marbles are purple. What is the probability you will choose a purple marble from the bag
mariarad [96]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 10 marbles and 4 of them are purple. That would give you the fraction 4/10. 4/10 can be simplified to 2/5. So, you have a 2/5ths chance of choosing a purple marble.

-83 + -30<br> Integers…………….
anastassius [24]

Answer:

-113

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the Decomposition Method.

1) Use this rule: -a-b=-(a+b).

-(83+30)

2) Use the decomposition method.

83 = 80 + 3

30 = 30 + 0

_____________________

            110 + 3 = 113

3) After simplification, we have:

-(83+30)=-113

4) Therefore, -83-30=-113.

A ship traveled for 4 hours heading east and for 3 hours heading north. If the total distance traveled was 149 miles, and the sh
Alex
D=vt,   distance is equal to velocity times time.

4v+3(v+3)=149 perform indicated multiplication

4v+3v+9=149  combine like terms on left side

7v+9=149  subtract 9 from both sides

7v=140  divide both sides by 7

v=20

So the ship traveled at a speed of 20 mph when heading east.
