The horizontal component of force is 5.47 lb

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Given that a boy pulls his sled with a rope.

The rope makes an angle with horizontal = 70 degree

If a pull on the rope is needed to move the sled = 16 pounds

We need to find the horizontal component of force

In given scenario, the force used in this scenario is a vector addition of the horizontal and the vertical force component. The horizontal force component is calculated by multiplying the applied force by the cosine of the angle of the applied force from the horizontal plane in which it is found:                     horizontal force component = applied force x cos 70 degree

Horizontal component force = f \cos \alpha

Here, given applied force, f = 16 pounds

Then, horizontal component of force =  16 \cos 70^{\circ}

Horizontal component of force = 16×0.342

Hence, horizontal component of force = 5.47 lb

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

Carmen had the largest red to green apple ratio of 5 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Red apples : Green apples

Carmen = 20 red apples : 12 green apples

= 20 / 12

= 5 / 3 = 1.67

= 5 : 3

Dylan = 12 red apples : 10 green apples

= 12 / 10

= 6 / 5 = 1.2

= 6 : 5

Eli = 16 red apples : 20 green apples

= 16 / 20

= 4 / 5 = 0.8

= 4 : 5

Carmen had the largest red to green apple ratio of 5 : 3

How many solutions does the equation 3x + 6 = − 1 − 3 + 4x have?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

  • one solution: x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

The coefficients of x on each side of the equal sign are different, so the equation is <em>not a tautology</em>. It must have exactly one solution.

Walking lights are placed around the perimeter of rectangular garden 30 feet be 16 feet and are placed 18 inches apart. How many
Masteriza [31]
Well we can find the perimeter by using the formula P=2L + 2W 
P=2(30) + 2(18)      P=60+36     P=96
I believe we can divide the perimeter by 18 to find the total amount of lights needed. 
96÷18=5.333333 
So we know at least 5 lights are needed.
I'm not sure if I'm correct, but I hope this helped anyways :)
