Answer: - 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The set of integers is the set of the whole numbers. {..., -1, 0, 1, 2, ...}

We want to represent a loss by 6 yards in football.

Because this is a loss, we should use a negative number, then we can use:

-6

This represents the number of yards by which your team losts.

Notice that I did not write the units, this is because:

-6 yards is a measure, furthermore can be "an integer number of yards"

-6 is an integer.

Vita saved $72 last December. This amount represents 2/9 of the total amount she saved last year. What is the total amount Vita

GrogVix [38]

$\dfrac{2}{9} \text { of the saving} = \$72$

-----------------------------------------------
Find 1/9 :
-----------------------------------------------
$\dfrac{1}{9} \text { of the saving} = \$72 \div 2$

$\dfrac{1}{9} \text { of the saving} = \$36$

-----------------------------------------------
Find 9/9 :
-----------------------------------------------
$\dfrac{9}{9} \text { of the saving} = \$36 \times 9$

$\dfrac{9}{9} \text { of the saving} = \$324$

-----------------------------------------------
Answer: The total amount is $324.

A block is set in motion hanging from a spring and oscillates about its resting position

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

t = 1.277 sec and t = 2.848 sec

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is much more easily done by graphing it than by computing it using algebra.

The values of t we're looking for are the ones that make x = 0, so we want the solutions of $0.6sin(2t)+0.4cos(2t)=0$ on the interval [0, 3].
