The answer is: 300
You need to find out whether you're looking for the percent, part, or whole. In this case, you're looking for the whole.
First, you set up a proportion: 12/100 = 36/x
Next, you cross multiply: 12x(3600)
Then, you divide: 3600÷12 = 300
So 300 is your total

A quarterback throws a football with a velocity of 41 mph and a direction of 168°. The wind on the field is 11 mph with a direct

Cerrena [4.2K]

The true speed and direction of the football thrown by the quarterback is 30.185 mph and 9⁰ respectively.

<h3>Relative velocity of the football</h3>

The true speed and direction of the football is determined by applying the concept of relative velocity.

Vr/w = Vb - Vw

where;

Vr/w is the velocity of the football with respect to the wind
Vb is the velocity of the football
Vw is the velocity of the wind

Vr/w = 41 mph - 11 mph = 30 mph

The direction speed can be determined by sketching a triangle

Direction of the speed, θ = (360 - 339) - (180 - 168)

θ = 21 - 12 = 9⁰

<h3>Resultant speed;</h3>

R² = 41² + 11² - 2(41 x 11 x cos9)

R² = 911.105

R = √911.105

R = 30.185 mph

Thus, the true speed and direction of the football thrown by the quarterback is 30.185 mph and 9⁰ respectively.

What is... X/2 - 13 = 1

kow [346]

X ÷ 2 - 13 = 1
Write the division as a fraction
$\frac{1}{2}x - 13 = 1$
Multiple both sides of the equation by 2
$2 \times \frac{1}{2}x \times - 2 \times 13 = 12$
Reduce the number with greatest common divisor 2
$x - 2 \times 3 = 2$
Multiply the numbers
$- 2 \times 13$
Then u will have
$x - 26 = 2$
Move constant to the right by adding its opposite sides
$x - 26 + 26 = 2 + 26$
Eliminate the opposites
$- 26 + 26$
Then you have
$x = 2 + 26$
Add the numbers
$x = 28$
