What role does gravity and inertia play in our Solar System?

It keeps the planets in orbit.

Inertia is what keeps an object moving (in the same direction). Gravity is the pull of an object to another.

The planets have reached the perfect medium to where inertia keeps the planets moving (instead of remaining completely still in space), and gravity pulls them toward the sun so that they move around it instead of moving straight past it or straight into it.

This is also true about the Earth and the moon.

This is also true with satellites in orbit.

Which values of k are solutions to the inequality StartAbsoluteValue negative k minus 2 EndAbsoluteValue less-than 18? Check all
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

You could just replace all the given possible values of k in the inequality and see which ones are solutions, but let's solve this in a more interesting way:

First, remember how the absolute value works:

IxI = x if x ≥ 0

IxI = -x if x ≤ 0

Then if we have something like:

IxI < B

We can rewrite this as

-B < x < B

Now let's answer the question, here we have the inequality:

I-k -2I < 18

Then we can rewrite this as:

-18 < (-k - 2) < 18

Now let's isolate k:

first, we can add 2 in the 3 parts of the inequality:

-18 + 2 < -k - 2 + 2 < 18 + 2

-16 < -k < 20

Now we can multiply all sides by -1, remember that this also changes the direction of the signs, then:

-1*-16 > -1*-k > -1*20

16 > k > -20

Then k can be any value between these two limits.

So the correct options (from the given ones) are:

k = -16

k = -8

k = 0

Chris can drive 41 miles for every 3 gallons of gas. At this
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

27 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If for every 41 miles, 3 gallons are needed. Using what we know, 369 ÷ 41 = 9. This means, to get 369 miles, we need to times the first amoiyng of gallons needed to drive 41 miles, which is 3, and times it by 9. (3×9=27) Therefore, 27 gallons of gas is needed.

If line A contains Q(5,1) and is parallel to line MN with M(-2,4) and N(2,1), which ordered pair would be on the perpendicular t
vivado [14]
Your question does not say what were your options, therefore I will answer generically: in order to understand if a point (ordered pair) is contained in a line, you need to substitute the x-component of the pair in the equation of the line and see if the calculations give you the y-component of the pair.

Example:
Your line is <span> y = 4/3x + 1/3
Let's see if <span>(0, 0) and (2, 3) </span>belong to this line

y</span> = <span>4/3·0 + 1/3 = 1/3 </span>≠ 0
Therefore, the line does not contain (0, 0)

y = 4/3·2 + 1/3 = 9/3 = 3
Therefore, the line contains (2, 3)
