Answer:

Option (b) is correct.

There are 7.25 pounds in 116 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 1 pound equals 16 ounces.

We have to calculate the number of pounds in 116 ounces.

UNITARY METHOD is a method used to calculate the value of a single unit and then multiply it with the desired unit.

Since, given 16 ounces makes 1 pound

So, 1 ounces makes $\frac{1}{16}$ pounds

We have to find the number of pounds in 116 ounces.

So, 116 ounces makes $\frac{1}{16}\times 116$ pounds

Simplify, $\frac{1}{16}\times 116=7.25$

Thus, There are 7.25 pounds in 116 ounces.

Solve the equations

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

(1)The value of x is -9 .

Option (B) is correct .

(2)The value of x is 13 .

Option (A) is correct .

(3)The value of the x is 11 .

Option (D) is correct .

(4) The value of the x is -15 .

Option (A) is correct .

(5)The value of the x is -11 .

Option (C) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

First Part

As given

4x = -36

$x = \frac{-36}{4}$

x = -9

Therefore the value of x is -9 .

Option (B) is correct .

Second Part

As given

5x - 15 = 50

5x = 50 + 15gg

5x = 65

$x = \frac{65}{5}$

x = 13

Therefore the value of x is 13 .

Option (A) is correct .

As given

4(x+2)-17=35

4x + 8 - 17 = 35

4x = 35 + 17 - 8

4x = 44

$x = \frac{44}{4}$

x = 11

Therefore the value of the x is 11 .

Option (D) is correct .

Fourth Part

As given

6x+12=4x-18

6x-4x = -12-18

2x = -30

$x = \frac{-30}{2}$

x = -15

Therefore the value of the x is -15 .

Option (A) is correct .

Fifth Part

As given

$\frac{1}{2}(4x-10)+5=x-11$

Simplify the above

4x-10+5×2 = 2x-22

4x-10+10= 2x-22

4x-2x = -22

2x=-22

$x = \frac{-22}{2}$

x = -11

Therefore the value of the x is -11 .

Option (C) is correct .

Answer:

Use the distance formula to determine the distance between the two points.

Distance

√(x2−x1)^2 + (y2−y1)^2

Substitute the actual values of the points into the distance formula.

√ ( (−6) − 0)^2 +( (−3) − 4)^2

Subtract 0 from −6

√(−6)^2 + ( ( −3 ) −4 )^2

Raise −6 to the power of 2

√36 + ( ( −3 ) −4 )^2

Subtract 4 from −3

√36 + ( −7 )^2

Raise −7 to the power of 2

√ 36 + 49

Add 36 and 49

A ball is launched from a 682.276 meter tall platform. the equation for the ball's height h at time t seconds after launch is h(

blagie [28]

The maximum height the ball achieves before landing is 682.276 meters at t = 0.

<h3>What are maxima and minima?</h3>

Maxima and minima of a function are the extreme within the range, in other words, the maximum value of a function at a certain point is called maxima and the minimum value of a function at a certain point is called minima.

We have a function:

h(t) = -4.9t² + 682.276

Which represents the ball's height h at time t seconds.

To find the maximum height first find the first derivative of the function and equate it to zero

h'(t) = -9.8t = 0

t = 0

Find second derivative:

h''(t) = -9.8

At t = 0; h''(0) < 0 which means at t = 0 the function will be maximum.

Maximum height at t = 0:

h(0) = 682.276 meters

Thus, the maximum height the ball achieves before landing is 682.276 meters at t = 0.
