Answer:

  15. 50 kg

  16a. 5 kg

  16b. 3.75 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula relating force, mass, and acceleration can be solved for mass. This formula will apply to both problems. We'll use m for both "mass" and "meters". We presume you can avoid getting mixed up by understanding that meters is used in the context of acceleration: m/s².

  F = ma

  m = F/a . . . . . divide by a

__

15. m = (250 N)/(5 m/s²) = 50 kg

__

16a. m = (15 N)/(3 m/s²) = 5 kg

16b. m = (15 N)/(4 m/s²) = 3.75 kg

_____

<em>Comment on units</em>

Especially for physics problems, I like to keep the units with the numbers. It is helpful to remember that Newtons are equivalent to kg·m/s². So, dividing Newtons by acceleration in m/s² will give mass in kg. Since you're familiar with F=ma, it's not too hard to remember that the units of force (N) are the product of the units of mass (kg) and acceleration (m/s²).

1. According to a recent survey, 13 out of the 33 students in a class take the bus to school. What is the ratio of students who
AlexFokin [52]

Answer: (1) 13/20    (2) 8    (3) Yes. They are proportional

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

(1) 13 students take the bus.

   33 - 13 = 20 students do not take the bus

    \dfrac{\text{take the bus}}{\text{do not take the bus}}:\dfrac{13}{20}

(2)

\dfrac{2\ red}{3\ green}=\dfrac{x}{12\ green}\\\\\\\underline{\text{cross multiply}:}\\2(12)=3(x)\\24=3x\\8=x

(3)

\dfrac{6}{10}\div \dfrac{2}{2}\quad =\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\\\dfrac{9}{15}\div \dfrac{3}{3}\quad =\dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\\\dfrac{15}{25}\div \dfrac{5}{5}\quad =\dfrac{3}{5}

All of the fractions simplify to the same number so they ARE proportional.

The test to detect the presence of a liver disorder is 98% accurate for a person who has the disease and 97% accurate for a pers
Daniel [21]
<span>The answer is 0.06325. The probability of detecting the true presence is 98% = 0.98. The probability of not detecting the true presence is: 100%-98% = 2% = 0.02. The probability of detecting the true absence is 97% = 0.97. The probability of not detecting the true absence is: 100%-97% = 3% = 0.03. The probability of having the disorder is: 3.5% = 0.035. The probability of not having the disorder is 100% - 3.5% = 96.5% = 0.965. The probabilty of having a disorder and detecting the true presence is: 0.035 * 0.98 = 0.0343. The probability of not having the disorder and detecting the true absence is: 0.965 * 0.03 = 0.02895. The probability that a randomly chosen person tests positive is: the probabilty of having a disorder and detecting the true presence + the probability of not having the disorder and detecting the true absence = 0.0343 + 0.02895 = 0.06325.</span>

Answer:

Yes, the given relation is a function.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the quadratic function, y = (x + 1)², and the domain of {-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3}:

By definition, a function is a <em>relation</em> in which no two ordered pairs have the same first component (x-values) and different second components (y-values). Observing the given domain, there are no repeating <em>input</em> values.

Therefore, the correct answer is that the relation is a function.

Hello can u tell me if my answer and work is correct and if not tell me
Anna35 [415]
Hi there.

Your answer is correct, as you need to divide both sides by 3.5 to solve for x, which results in $14/h.

I hope this helps!
