Answer:

d) 1⃣

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply -5 by -2 to get , then deduct 7 to get 3. So, you now know that 3 = 3a; 1 = a.

A student solving for the acceleration of an object has applied appropriate physics principles and obtained the expression a=a1+

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

$a=\frac{3\times 7}{7}+\frac{12}{7}$ (First step for obtaining a common denominator for the two fraction)

$a=\frac{33}{7}\text{ m/s}^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Given Expression: }a=a_1+\frac{F}{m}$

where,

a is acceleration of an object.(Need to calculate)

$a_1=3.00\text{ m/s}^2$

$F=12.0\text{ Kg.m/s}^2$

$m=7.00\text{ kg}$

$\text{Substitute }a_1, \text{ F, and m into expression and we get}$

$a=3+\frac{12}{7}$

Now we will simplify above expression for a

First we make common denominator.

Common denominator is 7. So, we make both denominator 7. We multiply by 7 at top and bottom with 3. We get

$a=\frac{3\times 7}{7}+\frac{12}{7}$ (First step for obtaining a common denominator for the two fraction)

Now we combine the numerator

$a=\frac{21+12}{7}$

$a=\frac{33}{7}\text{ m/s}^2$

x = total amount of gumballs

let's start subtracting the balls she's giving away

$\stackrel{total}{x}-\stackrel{\textit{to jaysen}}{\cfrac{x}{2}}\implies \stackrel{\textit{what's left}}{\cfrac{x}{2}}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{half of what's left to Marinda}}{\cfrac{~~ \frac{x}{2}~~}{2}\implies \cfrac{x}{4}} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{what was left minus Marinda's}}{\cfrac{x}{2}-\cfrac{x}{4}\implies \stackrel{\textit{what's left}}{\cfrac{x}{4}}}~\hfill ~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{a third of what's left to Zack}}{\cfrac{~~ \frac{x}{4}~~}{3}\implies \cfrac{x}{12}}$

$\stackrel{\textit{what was left minus Zack's}}{\cfrac{x}{4}-\cfrac{x}{12}\implies \stackrel{\textit{what's left}}{\cfrac{x}{6}}}~\hfill \stackrel{\textit{her sister gets 5 balls of what's left}}{ \cfrac{x}{6}-5 }$

and we also know that after all that has been subtracted, she's only left with 5, so we can say that

$\stackrel{\textit{what's finally left}}{\cfrac{x}{6}-5}~~ = ~~\stackrel{\textit{what's finally left}}{5}\implies \cfrac{x}{6}=10\implies \boxed{x = 60}$

3 drops : 4 pints = x drops : 16 pints

3drops/4pints = x/16pints

(3drops/4pints)*16pints = x
*cancel pints unit*
(3drops/4)*16 = x
(16*3)drops/4 = x
48 drops / 4 = x
12 drops = x (ANSWER)
