180 N

Step by Step Explanation :

Step 1 :

Given that the buoyant force of the boat is 260 N

and the boat's weight is 80 N

We have to find the maximum weight capacity of the boat so that it continues to float.

The boat would float when the total of the weight of  boat and the load it carries do not exceed the buoyant force.

Step 2 :

The weight capacity of the boat is therefore 260 N - 80 N = 180 N

Hence the boat can carry a weight of 180 N to continue to float

Answer:

The maximum weight capacity will be less than 180 N

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Archimedes principle, an object floats in the fluid if its buoyant force is greater than the weight of the object.

Here the buoyant force is 260 N so weight up to < 260, the boat will float.

Let the maximum weight capacity be x.

                                             x + 80 < 260

                                or, x + 80 - 80 < 260 - 80

                                               or, x < 180

So the maximum allowed weight will be less than 180 N.

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be the very top of the division problem, so for example, if we take. a look at the lower image below, we see that the number 6 is the number that would be the (first) number that would be the quotient.

Answer:

Very top, (e.g)<em> "the number 6"</em>

The figure represents the shape of a kitchen floor. What is the area? (round to the nearest hundredth)
Murljashka [212]
We would divide the shape into a rectangle and a trapezium

The rectangle is of length, 24.5 ft and width 10.75 ft

Area =  24.5 * 10.75 = 263.375 square feet.


Trapezium :  Parallel sides are 18.5 ft and 24.5 ft
Height:  12 - 10.75 = 1.25ft

Area of Trapezium = (1/2)*(Sum of Parallel sides)*height

                            = 1/2 * (18.5+24.5)* 1.25
                            = 1/2 * 43* 1.25 = 26.875     

Total Area = Area of Rectangle + Area of Trapezium

               =  263.375 + 26.875   = 290.25

Area = 290.25 ft²     (D)

This dot plot shows a nonlinear association... this is because if you look at the plot you can tell that there isn’t a line going any direction, it’s kinda scattered..so there isn’t any outliers rather it’s a nonlinear plot
