It is known that a cable with a​ cross-sectional area of 0.300.30 sq in. has a capacity to hold 2500 lb. If the capacity of the

cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area, what size cable is needed to hold 70007000 ​lb?

Answer:

0.84 square in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the capacity of the cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area.

Mathematically,

C = k * A

A1 = 0.3 sq

C1 = 2500 lb

C2 = 7000 lb

C1/A1 = C2/A2

2500/0.3 = 7000/C2

= 7000 / 8333.33

= 0.84 square in.

Answer:

0.84 square in

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the capacity of the cable is proportional to its​ cross-sectional area. If a cable that is 0.3 sq in can hold 2500 lb then per square inch it can hold

2500 / 0.3 = 8333.33 lb/in

To old 7000 lb it the cross-sectional area would need to be

7000 / 8333.33 = 0.84 square in

Solve the following system of equations express your answers as an ordered pair in the format (a,b) with no spaces between the n
EleoNora [17]
Double the first equation: 4x+14y=-2 and subtract the second: 17y=17, so y=1. 2x=-7y-1=-7-1=-8, so x=-8/2=-4.
The answer is x=-4 and y=1.

Match each graph with its corresponding equation
s344n2d4d5 [400]
The equation of the parabolas given will be found as follows:
a] general form of the parabolas is:
y=k(ax^2+bx+c)
taking to points form the first graph say (2,-2) (3,2), thus
y=k(x-2)(x-3)
y=k(x^2-5x+6)

taking another point (-1,5) 
5=k((-1)^2-5(-1)+6)
5=k(1+5+6)
5=12k
k=5/12
thus the equation will be:
y=5/12(x^2-5x+6)

b] Using the vertex form of the quadratic equations:
y=a(x-h)^2+k
where (h,k) is the vertex
from the graph, the vertex is hence: (-2,1)
thus the equation will be:
y=a(x+2)^2+1
taking the point say (0,3) and solving for a
3=a(0+2)^2+1
3=4a+1
a=1/2
hence the equation will be:
y=1/2(x+2)^2+1
