Answer:

About 428 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight = 1,500 * 9.8 = 14,700 N

Density = Mass ÷ Volume

1,030 = 1,500 ÷ V

V = 1,500 ÷ 1,030  = 1.46 m^3.

Buoyant force = Density * g * V  

Buoyant force = 1,000 * 9.8 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)

Buoyant force = 9,800 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)  = 14,272 N.

Net force = 14,700 – [(9,800 * (1,500 ÷ 1,030)]

You are a contractor who is installing a new wooden fence for a customer. The dimensions of the fence are 20 feet long and 6 fee
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

$132

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the total number of woods required. This would be total area of fence divided by area of each wood. Remember to convert inch into feet.

\frac{area of fence}{area of wood} \\=\frac{20 * 6}{6 * 0.3333} \\= 60 woods plank

Now we know the total number of planks, we need to find what is the cost of each plank. We know that one wood plank area is 2 sq. ft ( 6*0.33333). Therefore, the cost of each plank is = cost per area(sq.ft) multiply by total area (sq. ft).

cost per plank = 2 * $1.10 =$2.20.

We have total planks = 60 units and we have cost per plank = $2.20.

So, we can find total cost as 60*2.20= $132

Choose the correct words from the drop-down menu to make a true statement about the system of equations.
lyudmila [28]

Answer:C. It has only one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

The system of equations is expressed as

y = x + 2

Subtracting 2 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

x = y - 2 - - - - - - - - - 1

-x + 3y = 6

Multiplying the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by - 1, it becomes

x - 3y = - 6

Adding 3y to the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

x = 3y - 6 - - - - - - - - 2

Equating equation 1 and equation 2, it becomes

y - 2 = 3y - 6

3y - y = - 2 + 6

2y = 4

y = 4/2 = 2

Substituting y = 2 into equation 1, it becomes

x = 2 - 2 = 0

The solutions are (0, 2)
