Answer:
a) v=6
b) s= u^2 - v^2 : -2a
Step-by-step explanation:
v^2=u^2+2as
u=12, a=-6, s=9
a)
(12)^2= 12 * 12= 144
v^2=u^2+2as
v^2=(12)^2+ 2*(-6)*9
v^2=144+(-12)*9
v^2=144+(-108)
v^2=36
v=6
b)
v^2=u^2+2as
-2as=u^2 - v^2
s= u^2 - v^2 : -2a
check for s
s= 144 - 36 : -2(-6)
s= 108 : 12
s=9 (equal vs the given)
Interest = Principle x rate x Time divided by 100
Interest = 1250 x 4.5 x 5 / 100 = 281.25
5 pounds= 80 ounces
Since each piece weighs 2 ounces you divide 80 by 2 and get 40.
So, there are 40 slices of cheese
