Answer:

The answer is D, The objects have the same temperature.

Usually, if two objects are touching each other, the one with the higher temperature may transfer heat to the other object by a method called conduction. During this process, the one with the higher temperature loses heat, while the cooler one gains heat. Their temperature will change until they both have the same temperature, and this can be called thermal equilibrium.

As in "equilibrium", this word means same/balanced, and "thermal" is heat, so size is not related, and changing temperature also does not match with these 2 words. Therefore, the answer should be D.

TIMED QUESTION NEED HELP FASTWhat values of b satisfy 3(2b + 3)2 = 36?

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

$\frac{-3+ 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\textrm{ and }\frac{-3- 2\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$3(2b+3)^{2}=36\\\frac{3(2b+3)^{2}}{3}=\frac{36}{3}\\(2b+3)^{2}=12$

Taking square root both sides, we get

$\sqrt{(2b+3)^{2}}=\pm \sqrt{12}\\2b+3=\pm \sqrt{4\times 3}\\2b+3=\pm 2\sqrt{3}\\2b+3-3=\pm 2\sqrt{3}-3\\2b=-3\pm 2\sqrt{3}\\b=\frac{-3\pm 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\\b=\frac{-3+ 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\textrm{ or }b=\frac{-3- 2\sqrt{3}}{2}$

Therefore, the values of $b$ are:

$\frac{-3+ 2\sqrt{3}}{2}\textrm{ and }\frac{-3- 2\sqrt{3}}{2}$

The graph of f(x) = x3 − 7x − 6 is shown. Based on the graph, what are all of the solutions to f(x) = x3 − 7x − 6? x = −6 x = −2

pogonyaev

F(x)=x^3-7x-6 Since I don't have the graph and this is not a perfect cube, I will have to rely on Newton :P

x-(f(x)/(dy/dx))

x-(x^3-7x-6)/(3x^2-7)

(2x^3+6)/(3x^2-7), letting x1=0

0, -6/7, -.988, -.9999, -.99999999999, -1

(x^3-7x-6)/(x+1)

x^2 r -x^2-7x-6
-x r -6x-6
-6 r 0

(x+1)(x^2-x-6)=0

(x+1)(x-3)(x+2)=0

x= -2, -1, 3

Use the information to solve the triangle. Round your answers to two decimal places. Hint: draw a sketch first to determine if y

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

A = 40.0 (3 sig. fig)

C = 40

c = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Using sin law,

sinA/15 = sin100/23

A = 40.0 (3 sig. fig)

Using angle sum of triange,

C = 180 - 40.0 - 100 = 40

Since angleA = angleC, by side equal opp angles, c = 15
