Answer:
Friction is a force that opposes motion between any surfaces that are touching. Friction occurs because no surface is perfectly smooth. Rougher surfaces have more friction between them. ... Friction produces heat because it causes the molecules on rubbing surfaces to move faster and have more energy
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Square all three numbers. If the largest number squared is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two, then the numbers form a Pythagorean triple.
<u><em>or</em></u>
Since a Pythagorean triple is three positive integers a, b, and c such that (a^2)+(b^2)=(c^2), first take the sum of the squares of the two legs and make an estimate. For example, 3, 4, and 5 is a Pythagorean triple since 9+16=25
<u><em>either one works</em></u>
We need to account for both x values on either side of the length, and width.
Thus, the length becomes 10 + x + x = 10 + 2x
and the width becomes 5 + x + x = 5 + 2x
For the second question, I'm assuming we don't account for the area that is covered by the garden.
Then we can say that the path is measured by: (5 + 2x)(10 + 2x) - 50, which is the area of the garden itself.
(5 + 2x)(10 + 2x) - 50 = 54
Expanding the brackets:






x = -9, or x = 3/2
Since x > 0, then x ≠ -9
Thus, the only x-value we can take is x = 3/2
Answer:
Mean=8.8, Median=8
Step-by-step explanation:
How to find the mean:
First, add all the #'s up. 4+9+12+14+7+7=53
Then divide that by the number or numbers. In this case it is 6.
53/6=8.833... So rounded=8.8
Median:
List numbers lowest to highest
4, 7, 7, 9, 12, 14
Go to the middle number.
Since it is between 7 and 9, it is 7+9=16. 16/2=8
8 is the median
