What is the point of an object where the force of gravity is considered to act?

1 answer:

6 0

Gravity always acts downward on every object on earth. Gravity multiplied by the object's mass produces a force called weight. Although the force of an object's weight acts downward on every particle of the object, it is usually considered to act as a single force through its balance point, or center of gravity.

Miguel biked 14 km in the same amount of time that linda hiked 10 km. Miguel's rate was 4 km/h more than linda's. How fast did e

matrenka [14]

The first thing we must do is define a variable.

We have then:

x: Linda's speed.

Then, by definition, the time traveled is equal to the distance between the velocity.

We have then:

For Linda:

$t = \frac{10}{x}$

For Miguel:

$t = \frac{14}{x + 4}$

Then, since time is the same, then:

$\frac{10}{x} = \frac{14}{x + 4}$

Clearing Linda's speed we have:

$10 (x + 4) = 14x$

$10x + 40 = 14x$

$40 = 14x-10x$

$40 = 4x$

$x = \frac{40}{4}$

$x = 10$

Then, Miguel's speed is:

$x + 4 = 10 + 4 = 14$

Answer:

Linda's speed is 10 Km/h

Miguel's speed is 14 Km/h

Consider the functions f(x) = 2x - 3 and g(x) = 6 + 8/x. Solve for f(g(4))

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equations f(x) = 2x - 3 and g(x) = 6 + 8/x.

We want to find f(g(4))

Essentially, what we are doing, is plugging in 4 into x for g(x) and the outcome of that is what we plug into x for f(x)

So first lets plug in 4 into x for g(x)

g(x) = 6 + 8/x.

We want to find g(4)

g(4) = 6 + 8/4

First divide 8 by 4

g(4) = 6 + 2

Then add 6 and 2

g(4) = 8

Now that we have found g(4) we want to plug the value of g(4), so 8 into f(x)

f(x) = 2x - 3

we want to find f(8)

f(8) = 2(8) - 3

* multiply 2 and 8 *

f(8) = 16 - 3

* subtract 3 from 16 *

f(8) = 13

and we are done!

So we can conclude that f(g(4)) = 13

George bought socks for "$"300 and planned to sell them for $6 a pair. write an inequality to find the minimum number of socks h

Anit [1.1K]

The inequality <u>6s - 300 > 210</u> represents the minimum number of socks (s) when George bought socks for "$"300 and planned to sell them for $6 a pair, and want to make a profit of more than 210.

In the question, we are given that George bought socks for $300.

Therefore, George's total cost = $300.

We assume the number of pairs of socks George sells to be s.

The unit price per pair quoted by George = $6

Therefore, George's total sales = $6s.

We know that the profit over a transaction is given as the difference between sales and costs, that is,

The profit = The total sales - the total costs,

or, profit = 6s - 300.

In the question, we are required to make a profit of more than 210.

This can be shown by the inequality,

6s - 300 > 210.

Thus, the inequality <u>6s - 300 > 210</u> represents the minimum number of socks (s) when George bought socks for "$"300 and planned to sell them for $6 a pair, and want to make a profit of more than 210.
