Answer:

Multiply the first bracket by 3

Multiply the second bracket by -2

3x+3=-2x+2-4

3x+2x+3=-2x-2   negative (-) number and positive number (+)= negative number

Just rearranging

5x+3=-2

5x+3-3=-2-3

5x=-5

Dividing by 5

5x/5=-5/5

x=-1

Check answer by using substitution method

3(-1+1)=-2(-1-1)-4

0=-2(-2)-4 negative number and negative number = positive number

0=4-4

0=0

Answer is x=-1

If a 2-kg block compresses a spring 800mm from its relaxed state, how much potential energy does the block have due to the sprin
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

8 Joule

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of block = 2 kg

Displacement = x = 800 mm = 0.8 m

Spring constant = k = 25 N/m

Potential Energy of a spring

Work done = Difference in Potential Energy

Work Done = Δ P.E.

\Rightarrow \Delta\ P.E.=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

⇒P.E. = 0.5×25×0.8²

⇒P.E. = 8 Nm = 8 Joule

Here already the spring constant and displacement is given so the mass will not be used while calculating the potential energy.

zvonat [6]

Answer:

598=194+8x

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve you would subtract 194 from its self and 598

598=194+8x

-194  -194

404=8x

then you would divide 8 from it's self and 404

which would make it 50.5

(but you cant buy half a package of spoons so realistically it'd be 50 or 51.

hope this helped :)
