Answer:

Intermolecular forces in liquids are stronger than in gases but less that the forces in solids.

Step-by-step explanation:

The intermolecular forces in both liquids and solids have to be strong enough to hold the particles in the substances or objects together. Liquids and solids both have particles inside of them that barely have any room to move due to the strong hold that the intermolecular forces have between them. This is also with the help of the smaller amount of average kinetic energy between the molecules.

While liquids and solids both have greater intermolecular forces than the average amount of kinetic energy in the substances and objects, the particles in liquids have room to freely move around unlike solids which have particles compacted so tightly that they have no room to move at all. For example, if you compare a cookie to the water inside of a glass of water, you can see that the water can move around and is flexible to any container that you pour it in but the cooking does not move from it's solid form. The reasoning for this is because the water is a liquid and the particles are more flexible while the cookie is a solid and the particles cannot be separated from each other. Therefore, the cookie isn't flexible.

The particles in gases are separated so far apart because the intermolecular forces in them are very weak compared to liquids and solids meaning they cannot hold the particles together.

Overall, intermolecular forces in liquids are stronger than in gases but weaker than the intermolecular forces in solids.

Three friends Kofi,Yaw and Musa are in partnership business in which Kofi and Yaw contributed 5/9 and 2/15 of the cost of 14000.

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

(a) $Total = 45000$

(b) Yaw, Musa and Kofi

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Kofi =5/9$

$Yaw = 2/15$

$Musa = 14000$

Solving (a): The cost of the business

First, we solve for the fraction of Musa

$Musa + Kofi + Yaw = 1$

$Musa = 1 - (Kofi + Yaw )$

$Musa = 1 - (5/9 + 2/15)$

$Musa = 1 - (\frac{25+6}{45})$

$Musa = 1 - \frac{31}{45}$

$Musa = \frac{45 - 31}{45}$

$Musa = \frac{14}{45}$

So, we have:

$\frac{14}{45} * Total = 14000$

Make Total the subject

$Total = 14000 * \frac{45}{14}$

$Total = 1000 * 45$

$Total = 45000$

Solving (b): Partners in ascending order

First, represent the fractions as decimals

$Kofi =5/9$ $= 0.5556$

$Yaw = 2/15$ $= 0.1333$

$Musa = \frac{14}{45}$ $= 0.3111$

From the conversion above, the least is 0.1333 (Yaw), then 0.3111 (Musa), then 0.5556 (Kofi).

So, the order is: Yaw, Musa and Kofi

A paper company produces 675,000 tissues and 1,250 boxes in 5 days.

SashulF [63]

The tissue production unit rate is _675000/5=135000_ tissues per day. 

The box production unit rate is_1250/5=250_ boxes per day. 

The paper company produces_135000/250=540_ times as many tissues per day as boxes per day.

Write explicit formula for a1=3, r=-2; then generate 1st 5 terms

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

an = 3(-2)^(n-1)
3, -6, 12, -24, 48

Step-by-step explanation:

These variable names, a1, r, are commonly used in relationship to geometric sequences. We assume you want the terms of a geometric sequence with these characteristics.

a1 is the first term. r is the ratio between terms, so is the factor to find the next term from the previous one.

a1 = 3 (given)

a2 = a1×r = 3×(-2) = -6

a3 = a2×r = (-6)(-2) = 12

a4 = a3×r = (12)(-2) = -24

a5 = a4×r = (-24)(-2) = 48

The first 5 terms are 3, -6, 12, -24, 48.

The explicit formula for the terms of a geometric sequence is ...

an = a1×r^(n -1)

Using the given values of a1 and r, the explicit formula for this sequence is ...

an = 3(-2)^(n -1)
