Answer:

210 stamps

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Arthur ⇒ a = 3 k
  • Yusuf ⇒  y = 5k
  • Bill ⇒      b = 6k

<u>Yusuf gave </u><u>x</u><u> stamps to Arthur, then:</u>

  • y = 5k -x
  • a = 3k + x

<u>Bill gave Arthur 42 stamps more than Yusuf gave to Arthur, then:</u>

  • b = 6k - (x+42)
  • a = 3k + x + x + 42

<u>Now all 3 have same amount of stamps:</u>

  • 5k -x = 6k - x - 42 = 3k + 2x + 42

<u>From the first part of the equation we get:</u>

  • 6k - 5k = 42 + x - x
  • k = 42

<u>How many stamps did Yusuf have at first?</u>

  • y = 5k
  • y =5*42
  • y = 210 stamps

Yusuf had 210 stamps at first

Graph the circle x^2+y^2+2x+4y-44=0
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

First, convert this to standard form. By completing the square, you can do the following:

(x^2+2x+1)-1+(y^2+4y+4)-4-44=0

(x+1)^2+(y+2)^2=49

This is a circle with center (-1,-2), and radius 7. It looks like the one I graphed below. Hope this helps!

A spacecraft is traveling with a velocity of v0x = 5320 m/s along the +x direction. Two engines are turned on for a time of 739
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The velocities after 739 s of firing of each engine would be 6642.81 m/s in the x direction and 5306.02 in the y direction

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. For a constant acceleration: v_{f}=v_{0}+at, where  v_{f} is the final velocity in a direction after the acceleration is applied, v_{0} is the initial velocity in that direction  before the acceleration is applied, a is the acceleration applied in such direction, and t is the amount of time during where that acceleration was applied.
  2. <em>Then for the x direction</em> it is known that the initial velocity is v_{0x} = 5320 m/s, the acceleration (the applied by the engine) in x direction is a_{x} 1.79 m/s2 and, the time during the acceleration was applied (the time during the engines were fired) of the  is 739 s. Then: v_{fx}=v_{0x}+a_{x}t=5320\frac{m}{s} +1.79\frac{m}{s^{2} }*739s=6642.81\frac{m}{s}
  3. In the same fashion, <em>for the y direction</em>, the initial velocity is  v_{0y} = 0 m/s, the acceleration in y direction is a_{y} 7.18 m/s2, and the time is the same that in the x direction, 739 s, then for the final velocity in the y direction: v_{fy}=v_{0y}+a_{y}t=0\frac{m}{s} +7.18\frac{m}{s^{2} }*739s=5306.02\frac{m}{s}
