Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Detailed solution on the attached pictures
In the problem, the first equation should be represented like this base on the variable given in the problem:
20p + 9t = 44.4
with that equation, the second equation would is given by this formula, in response with the additional number of paperback and textbook
21p + 14t = 51
to get the system equation in getting the mass of each variable, you should subtract the two equation to simplified the formula.
20p + 9t = 44.4
- 21p + 14t = 51
-------------------------
p + 5t = 6.6 // this is the system equation that could be use in getting the mass of each object
Take 16x divide it by 2 and square it. 16/2= 8. 8^2= 64. So, the first step will be to add 64 to both sides.
This is Newtons second law of motion
Force = mass * acceleration
so here we have:-
10 = 10 * a
a = 1
its acceleration is 1 meter / sec^2.
