I assume a unit rate is simply ms^-1 or whatever.

In order to determine m/s one must make the "per whatever" part equal to 1. In this case it is seconds, so we must make seconds equal to 1.

If in 17 seconds it travels 238 metres, that means in 1 second it travels 238/17m=14m

Therefore the unit rate (speed) of the car is 14m/s or 14ms^-1

Well, first of all, any statement with per means over, or divided by. Per means divided by (/). So this is basically saying meter/second. Now , you have to insert the figures. So it will then be 238 meters/17seconds. So;
238/17. 238 divided by 17 is 14. 
   So the answer is 14, and it's unit is m/s because they were divided. So it is 14m/s.
   Hope i helped. Have a nice day.

At a restaurant, three salads, two sandwiches, and one drink cost $17.75. One salad, one sandwich, and three drinks cost $10.75.
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

A salad costs $2.50

A sandwich costs $4.50

A drink costs $1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the salad, y represent the sandwich, and z represent the drink.

Since three salads, two sandwiches, and one drink cost $17.75:

3x + 2y + z = 17.75  (1)

Since one salad, one sandwich, and three drinks cost $10.75:

x + y + 3z = 10.75  (2)

Since a salad costs twice as much as a drink:

x = 2z  (3)

Multiply the equation 2 by -2 then, sum the equation 1 and equation 2:

-2x - 2y - 6z = -21.50

3x + 2y + z = 17.75

→ x - 5z = -3.75

Replace the x with 2z using equation 3:

2z - 5z = -3.75

-3z = -3.75

z = 1.25

x = 2z → x = 2.50

x + y + 3z = 10.75 → 2.50 + y + 3.75 = 10.75 → y + 6.25 = 10.75 → y = 4.50

Is it possible for three vectors of different magnitudes to add to zero?.
amid [387]

Answer:

No, it is not possible to obtain zero by adding two vectors of unequal magnitudes.

Explanation:

The Sum of two vectors can only be zero if they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction. So no two vectors of unequal magnitude cannot be added to give a null vector. Three vectors of equal magnitude and making an angle 120 degrees with each other gives a zero resultant.
