1. Use the formula S(d)=√9.8d to calculate the estimated speed, in meters per second, of a tsunami if the disturbance occurred a

t an ocean depth of 4,500 meters.
2. Convert the answer from question one from meters per second to kilometers per hour. (Hint: A meter per second is equal to 3.6 kilometers per hour.)

Answer: 1. 210 meters per second .

2.  756  kilometers per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The formula S(d)=\sqrt{9.8d} to calculate the estimated speed, in meters per second of a tsunami.

1. If the disturbance occurred at an ocean depth of 4,500 meters.

Then put d= 4500 in the above formula , we get

S(d)=\sqrt{9.8\times4500}

S(d)=\sqrt{44100}=\sqrt{21\times21\times10\times10}\\\\=\sqrt{210^2}=210

Hence, if the disturbance occurred at an ocean depth of 4,500 meters , the estimated speed would be 210 meters per second .

Also, A meter per second is equal to 3.6 kilometers per hour.

i.e. 1 meter per second = 3.6 kilometers per hour

Then by unitary method ,

210 meters per second  =3.6\times210 kilometers per hour

=756  kilometers per hour.

Which inequality describes this graph?
ZanzabumX [31]

The inequality that describes this graph of the number line is x ≥ 4

<h3>How to determine the inequality that describes this graph?</h3>

From the question, we have the following properties:

  • The graph is a number line
  • The number line extends at both ends
  • The number line starts from less than -5 and ends at greater than 5
  • There is a heavy arrow that extends from a circle over positive 4 to the right.

The property 3 above implies that the domain of the number line is the set of all real numbers.

The property 4 above implies that the inequality of the number line is a greater than or equal to inequality, and the value starts from 4

This is represented by the following inequality

x ≥ 4

Hence, the inequality that describes this graph of the number line is x ≥ 4

What is the interest on Rr 20,000 if the interest rate is 15%?
Basile [38]

Answer: Rr.3,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The interest is the amount that accrues on a principal that was invested or a cost that was incurred.

It is based on a certain interest rate which in this case is 15%.

The principal is Rr. 20,000.

Interest = Principal * Interest rate

= 20,000 * 15%

= Rr.3,000
