Answer:

The velocity of the car after the collision is -5.36 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

An elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains the same.

let the following:

m₁ = mass of the car = 1400 kg

m₂ = mass of the truck = 3200 kg

u₁ = velocity of the car before collision = 13.7 m/s

u₂ = velocity of the truck before collision = 0 m/s

v₁ = velocity of the car after collision

v₂ = velocity of the truck after collision

v₁ = [ u₁ * (m₁ - m₂) + u₂ * 2m₂ ]/ (m₁ + m₂)

   =  [ 13.7 * (1400 - 3200) + 0 * 2 * 3200 ]/ (1400 + 3200)

   = - 5.36 m/s

So, <u>the velocity of the car after the collision is -5.36 m/s</u>

3. Graph the line by finding the x and y intercepts. 2x + 3y = 6
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

x-int: (3, 0)

y-int: (0, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x-int is found when y = 0. Set <em>y</em> to 0 to solve for the x-int.

The y-int is found when x = 0. Set <em>x</em> equal to 0 to solve for the y-int.

16 plus 5 times a number is more than the number minus 8. Write an inequality and solve it
Radda [10]

n > -6 is the inequality for 16 plus 5 times a number is more than the number minus 8

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given statement is:

16 plus 5 times a number is more than the number minus 8

We have to write a inequality

From given statement,

16 plus 5 times a number is more than the number minus 8

Let the number be "n"

Therefore,

16 plus 5 times "n" is more than "n" minus 8

Here, "plus" means addition and "minus" means subtraction and "times" means multiplication

Thus the statement is translated into inequality as:

16 + 5n >n-8

Simplify the inequality

16 + 5n >n-8\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}16\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\16 + 5n -16 > n - 8 -16\\\\5n >n-24\\\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}n\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\\\5n-n>n-24-n\\\\\mathrm{Simplify}\\\\4n>-24\\\\\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}4\\\\\frac{4n}{4}>\frac{-24}{4}\\\\n>-6

Thus the soultion is n > -6
