The position-time graph of an object is shown below. What is the velocity of the object when time t = 2.5 seconds

Answer: 2 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The position time graph shown above has position or distance on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis. The unit of the distance is in metes and the unit of the time is in seconds.

Distance = velocity / time

Time = distance × time

From the graph, the slope at any point determines the velocity of the object at that point.

Slope =( y2 -y1)/ ( x2 -x1)

y2 = 5(corresponding to the point on the vertical axis where t = 2.5 on the horizontal meets the plotted line when traced along the vertical axis)

y 1 = 0 (initial distance)

x2 = 2.5( on the horizontal axis)

x1 = 0(initial time)

Velocity = slope = (5-0)/2.5-0)= 5/2.5

= 2 m/s

Can someone help me find x please
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

38.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the triangle using the trigonometrical ratios which may be expressed in the form SOA CAH TOA Where

SOA stands for

Sin Ф = opposite side/hypotenuses side

CAH stands for

Cosine Ф = adjacent side/hypotenuses side

TOA stands for

Tangent Ф = opposite side/adjacent side

The hypotenuse is the side facing the right angle while the opposite is the side facing the given angle.

Considering the triangle with respect to angle x, 8cm is the opposite side, 10cm is the adjacent side

hence

Tan x = 8/10

Tan x = 0.8

x = tan -1 0.8

= 38.7°

Hello,

I suppose you want the equation

There are 2 infinite solutions:
y=k(x-5)²(x+5)
or
y=k(x-5)(x+5)²

A log splitter can split 6/5 cords of wood in 4/5 of an hour. Complete the unit rate by setting up a complex fraction and simpli
Digiron [165]

Answer:

1½ cords per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

A log splitter can split 6/5 cords of wood in 4/5 of an hour.

To find a unit rate, we divide the quantity of cords of wood by the time.

This gives us the complex fraction.

\frac{ \frac{6}{5} }{ \frac{4}{5} }

This is the same as

\frac{6}{5}  \div  \frac{4}{5}

To divide two fractions, we multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

\frac{6}{5}   \times   \frac{5}{4}

\frac{3}{1}   \times   \frac{1}{2}

This simplifies to:

\frac{3}{2}  = 1 \frac{1}{2}

The unit rate is 1.5 cords per hour
