3 0

Answer:

219.15% (2DP)

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between 0.94 and 3 is 2.06

Percentage change = (change in value/ original amount) X100.

(2.06/0.94) X 100

Which equals 219.15%

The price of gas has increased by 219.15%

A miners' cage of mass 420 kg contains 3 miners of total mass 280 kg. The cage
svp [43]

Answer:

5817 Newtons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total mass of the cage + the miners = 700 Kg which is a downward force of  700g N.

The net downward force = 700g - T where T is the tension (force) in the cable. The g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m s-2.

We  calculate the  acceleration of the cage by using an equation of motion:

Distance = ut + 1/2 a t^2     where u = initial velocity , t = time and a = acceleration:

75 = 0(t) + 1/2 a (10^2)

50a =  75

a = 1.5 m s-2.

So using Newtons second law of motion

Force = mass * acceleration:

700*9.81 - T = 700 * 1.5

T = 700 * 9.81 - 700*1.5

= 5817 N.

What does it mean to eliminate a variable?
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The elimination method for solving systems of linear equations uses the addition property of equality. You can add the same value to each side of an equation.

So if you have a system: x – 6 = −6 and x + y = 8, you can add x + y to the left side of the first equation and add 8 to the right side of the equation. And since x + y = 8, you are adding the same value to each side of the first equation.
