A radical is also known as a square root. An example of a radical is √25 or ∛36.

iren [92.7K]

Missing part in the heading of the question:
"The force f (in pounds) required to push a sofa across the floor varies directly as the weight w (in pounds) of the sofa"

Answer:
F = 0.625 w

Explanation:
We are given that F in pounds varies directly with the weight of the sofa in pounds.
This means that:
F = kw
where:
F is the force
k is the constant of proportionality
w is the weight of the sofa

We are given that:
F is 100 pounds when w is 160 pounds

Substitute with these givens in the above equation to get the constant of proportionality k as follows:
F = kw
100 = 160k
k = 100 / 160
k = 0.625

This means that the equation describing the relation between the force and the weight of the sofa is:
F = 0.625 w

Hope this helps :)

Which equation does the graph of the systems of equations solve?

Answer:

$\text{B. }\frac{1}{3}x-3=-x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by taking a look at the blue line. The slope of any line that passes through two points is equal to the change in y-values over the change in x-values. We can see that the line passes through points (0, 1) and (1, 0). Assign these points to $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ (doesn't matter which you assign) and use the slope formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Let:

$(x_1,y_1)\implies (0,1)\\(x_2,y_2)\implies (1, 0)$

The slope is equal to:

$m=\frac{0-1}{1-0}=\frac{-1}{1}=-1$

Therefore, the slope of this line is -1. In slope-intercept form $y=mx+b$ , $m$ represents slope, so one of the lines must have a term with $-x$ in it, which eliminates answer choices A and D.

For the second line, do the same thing. The red line clearly passes through (0, -3) and (3, -2). Therefore, let:

$(x_1,y_1)\implies (0,-3)\\(x_2,y_2)\implies (3, -2)$

Using the slope formula:

$m=\frac{-2-(-3)}{3-0}=\frac{1}{3}$

Thus, the slope of the line is 1/3 and the other line must have a term with $\frac{1}{3}x$ in it, eliminating answer choice C and leaving the answer $\boxed{\text{B. }\frac{1}{3}x-3=-x+1}$
