In kickboxing, it is found that the force, f, needed to break a board, varies inversely with the length, l, of the board. If it

takes 7 pounds of pressure to break a board that is 3 feet long, how long is a board that requires 5 pounds of pressure to break?

Answer:

4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

f varies inversly with L can be translated matimatically as:

● f = k/L

It takes 7 pounds of pressure to break a 3 feet long board.

Replace f by 7 and L by 3.

● 7 = k/3 => k=7×3=21

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

Let's find tge length of a board that takes 5 pounds of pressure to be broken.

● 5 = k/L

● 5 = 21/L

● L = 21/5 = 4.2

So the board is 4.2 feet long

Near the equator, the earth rotates approximately 34 kilometers every 32 seconds. what is the speed of earth's rotation near the
viktelen [127]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The earth rotates 34 km every 32 seconds. We can simplify this by dividing both sides by 32. Now, we have 34/32 km every 32 seconds. Now, to further simplify this, we need to convert 34/32 to a mixed number 34/32 = 1 2/32 which then can be simplified to 1 1/16. So, near the equator, the speed of Earth's rotation is 1 1/16 km per second.
