Tons needed to unload a freight train= 21×2.5 =52.5
number of 3.5-ton payload trucks needed to unload a freight train=52.5÷3.5 = 15

15 Trucks , Each With A 3.5-Ton Payloaf , Would be Needed To Do The Same Job.

Which are sums of perfect cubes? Check all that apply. 8x6 27 x9 1 81x3 16x6 x6 x3 27x9 x12 9x3 27x9.
Black_prince [1.1K]

The equations which are sums of perfect cubes are as follows;

\rm 8x^6+27x^9+1

\rm x^6+x^3

\rm 27x^9+x^{12}

<h3>Perfect cubes;</h3>

Perfect cubes are the numbers that are the triple product of the same number.

We have to determine

Which are sums of perfect cubes?

1. The given equation is \rm 8x^6+27x^9+1.

The equation can be written as;

\rm 8x^6+27x^9+1\\\\2^3(x^2)^3+3^3(x^3)^3+1^3

All the terms in the expression are can be represented as perfect cubes.

2.  The given equation is \rm 81x^3+16x^6.

The equation can be written as;

\rm 81x^3+16x^6\\\\9^2x^3+4^2(x^2)3

In this, all the terms are not perfect cubes, some of them are squares.

3. The given equation is \rm x^6+x^3.

The equation can be written as;

\rm x^6+x^3\\\\(x^2)^3+x^3

All the terms in the expression are perfect cubes.

4.  The given equation is \rm 27x^9+x^{12}.

The equation can be written as;

\rm 27x^9+x^{12}\\\\3^3(x^3)^3+(x^4)^3

All the terms in the expression are perfect cubes.

5.   The given equation is \rm 9x^3+27x^9.

The equation can be written as;

\rm 9x^3+27x^9\\\\3^2x^3+3^3(x^3)^3

In this, all the terms are not perfect cubes, some of them are squares too.

Suppose that you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each
stich3 [128]

We have been given that  you drop a ball from a window 50 metres above the ground. The ball bounces to 50% of its previous height with each bounce. We are asked to find the total distance traveled by up and down from the time it was dropped from the window until the 25th bounce.            

We will use sum of geometric sequence formula to solve our given problem.

S_n=\frac{a\cdot(1-r^n)}{1-r}, where,

a = First term of sequence,

r = Common ratio,

n = Number of terms.

For our given problem a=50, r=50\%=\frac{50}{100}=0.5 and n=25.

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(1-(0.5)^{25})}{1-0.5}

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(1-0.0000000298023224)}{0.5}

S_{25}=\frac{50\cdot(0.9999999701976776)}{0.5}

S_{25}=100\cdot(0.9999999701976776)

S_{25}=99.99999701976776\approx 100

Therefore, the ball will travel 100 meters and option B is the correct choice.
