Phoenix [80]4 years ago

Answer:

The weight of the object is 3 kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>

Let object weight be x kg.

Now, as per the available data,

3/4 kg + 3/4 (x kg) = x kg

<u>Step 2: </u>

3/4 (1 + x) = x

1 + x = 4x/3

1 = x (4/3 - 1)

x = 1 / (1/3)

x = 3

Weight of Object is 3 kg.

<u>Step 3: </u>

Let's check if this value satisfies the first equation.

3/4 + 3/4 x 3 = 3/4 + 9/4 = 12/4 = 3

Hence proved.

Jobisdone [24]
When you graph an equation, it should be dependent variable against the independent variable. For this problem, the independent variable is the time, so this is along the x-axis. The dependent variable is d, so this is along the y-axis. Since the slope is Δy/Δx, then it is also equivalent to Δd/Δt. Therefore, the answer is B.

What types of numbers are undefined when they are under a radical sign? If you were dealing with the number √-1, would it be def
Misha Larkins [42]
The square root of a a negative integer is imaginary.
It would still be a negative under a square root if you multiplied it by 2, therefor it will still be imaginary, or I’m assuming as your book calls it, undefined.
2•(sqrt-1) = 2sqrt-1

If you add a number to -1 itself, specifically 1 or greater it will become a positive number or 0 assuming you just add 1. In that case it would be defined.
-1 + 1 = 0
-1 + 2 = 1

If you add a number to the entire thing “sqrt-1” it will not be defined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1+ (sqrt-1)

If you subtract a number it will still have a negative under a square root, meaning it would be undefined.
(sqrt-1) + 1 = 1 + (sqrt-1)

however if you subtract a negative number from -1 itself, you end up getting a positive number or zero. (Subtracting a negative number is adding because the negative signs cancel out).
-1 - -1 = 0
-1 - -2 = 1

If you squared it you would get -1, which is defined
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1

and if you cubed it, you would get a negative under a square root again, therefor it would be undefined.
sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 • sqrt-1 = -1 • sqrt-1 = -1(sqrt-1)

Sorry if this answer is confusing, I don’t have a scientific keyboard, I’ll get one soon.

Ahat [919]

Answer:

10:9

Step-by-step explanation:

First ratio is 5:4. 4 is equal to Henry class

If you múltiply the ratio by 2 you get

10:8, This ratio can be compared because now Henry class has 8

2(5:4)

10:8

8:9

Meaning that the answer is 10:9
