Answer:

15\,\,kg/cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The volume of a gas "V" varies inversely with the pressure "P" put on it.

Volume is 360 cm^3 under a pressure of 20 kg/cm^2

To find:

pressure when volume is 480 cm^3

Solution:

As  of a gas "V" varies inversely with the pressure "P" put on it,

V=\frac{k}{P}

Here, k is a constant

As volume is 360 cm^3 under a pressure of 20 kg/cm^2, put V=360\,,\,P=20

360=\frac{k}{20}\\k=360\times 20\\=7200

So,

V=\frac{7200}{P}

Put V=480

480=\frac{7200}{P}\\P=\frac{7200}{480}\\=15\,\,kg/cm^2

What is the value of x?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive angles in a parallelogram are supplementary, thus

∠ A + ∠ B = 180, substitute values

9x + 8 + 8x + 2 = 180, that is

17x + 10 = 180 ( subtract 10 from both sides )

17x = 170 ( divide both sides by 17 )

x = 10

The center of the inscribed circle of Triangle ABC is point , and the center of the circumscribed circle of Triagnle ABC is poin
quester [9]

Answer:

Part A: The center of The inscribed circle is the point S

Part B: The center of The circumscribed circle is the point P

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Find the center of The inscribed circle of ΔABC

The inscribed circle will touch each of the three sides of the triangle in exactly one point,

The center of the inscribed circle is the point of intersection between the angle bisectors of the triangle.

<u>So, </u>According to the previous definition:

A₁A₂ and B₁B₂ are the angle bisectors of ∠A and ∠B

So, the inter section between them is the center of <u>The inscribed circle</u>

<u>So, the center of The inscribed circle is the point S</u>

=====================================================

Part B: Find the center of The circumscribed circle of ΔABC

The circumscribed circle is the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle.

The center of the circumscribed circle is the point of intersection between the perpendicular bisectors of the sides.

<u>So,</u> According to the previous definition:

P₁P₂ and Q₁Q₂ are the perpendicular bisectors of AB and BC

So, the inter section between them is the center of <u>The circumscribed circle</u>

<u>So, the center of The circumscribed circle is the point P</u>

If Usain Bolt can run a marathon (26.2) in 2 hours and 15 minutes, how fast would he run if he ran at the same constant rate?
inn [45]

Answer:

The speed of Usain Bolt is 0.194 miles per minutes to complete the marathon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The Distance of marathon = 26.2 unit

The time taken to complete marathon = 2 hours and 15 minutes

                                                                = 120 + 15 = 135 minutes

Let The constant speed of Usain Bolt = S unit per minutes

So, Speed = \frac{Distance }{Time}

Or, S  = \frac{26.2 }{135}

∴   S = 0.194  unit per minutes

Hence The speed of Usain Bolt is 0.194 miles per minutes to complete the marathon.   Answer

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line with equation 12x+3y=9?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The slope would be 1/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the perpendicular slope first you have to set this equation to y

to do this you use the subtraction prop of equality and you will get 12x-9= -3y

then you divide by -3 on both sides to get y by itself

you will get -4x+3=y

now that you know the slope is -4, you must find the negative reciprocal slope of this which means you have to flip the numerator and denominator and make the sign its opposite.

The perpendicular slope would then be 1/4.
