Answer: The company currently has 17 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X represent the number of current employees in the company

From the first information, it can be expressed mathematically as

X + 3 ≥ 20

X ≥ 20 - 3

X ≥ 17

From the second information, it can be expressed mathematically as

X - 3 < 15

X < 15 + 3

X < 18

From the above solutions, it can be deduced that

17 ≤ X < 18

The only number that fulfils this criteria is 17.

Therefore, X = 17

Prove a/b is less than b/a when 0 < a <b

enyata [817]

$\frac{a}{b} < \frac{b}{a} \implies \\ a^2 < b^2 \implies a-b$

We are given that 0<a<b, which means that 0>-a>-b if you multiply it by -1, which means what's given by our inequality is true and we are done.

A fulcrum moving a resistance of 200 g has a distance to the fulcrum of 20 cm, the effort mass of 50 g has a distance to the ful

Answer:

The ideal mechanical advantage (IMA) is $4$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The ideal mechanical advantage is the ratio of length of longer lever $L_e$ to that of shorter lever $L_r$

IMA $\frac{L_e}{L_r}$

Please refer to the image attached.

We could see that the the resistance load moves $10\ cm$ cm towards the fulcrum so the distance of resistance load from fulcrum $= (20-10) =10\ cm$

Now the as the effort force moves $40\ cm$ towards the fulcrum overall distance from the fulcrum to the effort force (load) $=(80-40)=40\ cm$

Plugging the values of the distances in IMA formula we can have.

IMA $=\frac{(80-40)}{(20-10)} =\frac{40}{10} =4$ .

So the IMA of the fulcrum (simple machine) $= 4$
