f = m*a (force equals mass and acceleration)

And since we don't know the actual mass then it's- 100=(m)*3

So when the tractor pulled the log that is, 100 pounds and it only moved 3 feet.

But calculating it (by multiplication) equals to 300 ft-lbs, so therefore it can't be 130 ft-lbs.

So by my guess, it's 300 ft-lbs, since it's impossible and strange to even reach some number as the first and second one.

Dennis and Connie purchased a radio for $128. Dennis paid $36 more than Connie. How much did each pay?

never [62]

Answer:

Dennis paid $82 and Connie paid $46.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up an equation by putting in variables, c representing how much Connie paid. Since we know that Dennis paid $36 more, we will also factor that in the equation.

c + c + 36 = 128

Where c + 36 represents the amount Dennis paid, and 128 represents the total amount paid as given in the question. We can start by adding like terms. 2c + 36 = 128

Now, we can subtract 36 from each side,

2c + 36 - 36 = 128 - 36

2c = 92

Divide each side by two,

2c/2 = 92/2

c = 46

Now, to make sure this is correct, let's substitute our c for 46 in our equation:

46 + 46 + 36 = 128

92 + 36 = 128

128 = 128

Therefore, our equation is correct, and Dennis paid $82 while Connie paid $46.

Suppose triangle ABC has vertices at A(1, 0), B(10, 0), and C(2, 6). After a 60° counterclockwise rotation about the origin, ver

Artemon [7]

Check the picture attached.

Let OB be the radius of circle with center O.

Let B' be the image of B after the described rotation

OB and OB' are sides of the equilateral triangle OBB'.

The x coordinate of B' is the midpoint of OB, that is 5.

In the right triangle B', point (5, 0) and B:

Distance point (5, 0) to B is 5
|B'B|=|OB|=10

so by the pythagorean theorem:

$a= \sqrt{ 10^{2} - 5^{2} } = \sqrt{ 2^{2} *5^{2} - 5^{2} }= \sqrt{5^{2}(4-1)}=5 \sqrt{3}$ units

Answer: $5 \sqrt{3}$
