Ever wonder what Albert Einstein’s formula E = MC2 means? Don’t worry, your teacher doesn’t really understand that one either, b

ut what the heck is a “formula” anyway?
What’s a formula?
It’s a way to show how things are related. It may be a mathematical pattern. In math class, we use an equation such as y = 20x. What do the variables x & y stand for? It could be anything related in that pattern.
Example: You earn $20 per hour babysitting your friend’s baby T-Rex (watch those baby teeth). The equation or “formula” for your money earned: Money = 20 X Hours
We could also use letters such as M = 20H or y = 20x

Definition for formula, with example:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Can you think of any two things related in a pattern?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic steps for using a formula:
1. Write the formula. Example: volume = length X width X height
2. Find out what you know. Example: length = 2, width = 3, height = 1
3. Plug in the numbers and solve. Volume = 2 X 3 X 1 = 6
4. Double check your “units”, like if the length is inches and the width is feet, you need to change something.
Note: it makes things easier to understand if you use letters or symbols, like V = LWH
(we can show multiplication different ways, like above is multiplying, or use * instead of x)

Changing the subject: We can use simple math to solve for anything we don’t know in a formula or equation.
Example from above: V = L W H
If I know the volume of a box is 20, length is 2 and width is 5. What is the H or height?
20 = 2 X 5 X H or 20 = 10 times H or 20 = 10H
Solve for H: It must be 2! You can also do the reverse operation, like 20 divided by 10 equals 2, our answer.
It helps to think of simple math, like we know 12 = 6 x 2 or 6 = 12/2 or 2 = 12/6
Make sure you check “units”, like volume could be cubic inches, so the length, width and height all need to be in inches for it to work.

Answers are mentioned along with explanations/

Explanation:

1. We are given D = 5R

where D = no. of diamonds and R = no. of rubies

a. In words, Number of diamonds = 5 times no. of rubies

In letters D = 5R

b. Given R = 4, so D = 5 x R = 5x 4

D = 20

c.  Given R = 10 , so D = 5 x R = 5x 10

D = 50

d. Given D = 15 , D = 5R so , R = D/5 = 15/5 = 3

R = 3

e. R = \frac{D}{5}  because D = 5R

2. Given A = B + C

a. B = 5 , C = 2 => A= 5+2 => A= 7

b. B = A - C from above equation and given A = 10 , C = 2 , B= 10 - 2

B = 8

c.  two values of B and C for A to be 7

B = 4 C = 3 and vice versa as 4+3 = 7

d. B = A - C by moving C on the RHS thus changing its prefix sign.

3. Given A = 3x and B = 5x+1

a. B goes up faster because it is 5 times x plus 1 where A is just 3 times x

b. if x = 0, A = 3x = 3x0 = > A = 0

c. if x =1 , B = 5x+1 = 5x1 +1 = 5+1 => B = 6

4. Given A = 2x and B = x2 where x2 means x*x so,

a. if x=1 , A = 2*1 = 2 and B = 1*1 = 1

b. if x = 3, A = 3*1 = 3 and B = 3*3 = 9

5. Given D =2R

a. given R = 8 , D = 2*8 => D=16

b. given R =3 then D = 2*3 => D = 6

c. D= 20 given, R = D/2 = 20/2 => R = 10

d. D = 100 so R = D/2 = 100/2 => R =50

e. R = \frac{D}{2} or D/2

6. Given C = π D and π  = 3.14

a. if D = 20, C = 3.14*20 => C = 62.8 centimeters

b. if D = 10, C = 3.14*10 => C = 31.4 inches

c. Given C = 18, D = C/31.4 = 18/3.14 => D = 5.732 inches

7. Given S = D/T

a. S = 12/3 = 4 feet/seconds

b. S = 100/5 = 20 miles/seconds

c. For S = 4feet per second , D = 8 ft and T = 2 seconds as S = D/T

NEED ANSWERS ASAP !!!
morpeh [17]

Answer:

I think its B

Explanation:

because "This means that when you rubbed the plastic comb along your hair, your hair resisted the movement of the comb and slowed it down. The friction between two surfaces can cause electrons to be transferred from one surface to the other."

A sled with a mass of 20 kg slides along frictionless ice at 4.5 m/s. It then crosses a rough patch of snow that exerts a fricti
uysha [10]

Answer:The sled slides 16.875m before rest.

Explanation:

a=\frac{F}{m} =\frac{12N}{20kg}

a=0.6 m/s²

Vf=0=Vi-a.t

t=\frac{Vi}{a} =t=\frac{4.5m/s}{0.6 m/s2} =t=7.5seg

d= Vi.t - \frac{a.t^{2}}{2}

d= 4.5 * 7.5 - \frac{0.6*7.5^{2} }{2} \\\\d=16.875m

The __ of a position-time graph represents an object’s velocity.
Vlad [161]
<span>The SLOPE of a position-time graph represents an object’s SPEED.

It's not possible to tell the object's velocity from the graph, because
the graph doesn't show anything about what direction the object is
moving, and you need to know the direction in order to know the velocity. </span>

Create the following matrix H:
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

a) {[1.25  1.5  1.75  2.5  2.75]

    [35  30  25  20  15]  }

b) {[1.5  2  40]

    [1.75  3  35]

    [2.25  2  25]

    [2.75  4  15]}

Explanation:

Matrix H: {[1.25  1.5  1.75  2  2.25  2.5  2.75]

                [1  2  3  1  2  3  4]

                [45  40  35  30  25  20  15]}

Its always important to get the dimensions of your matrix right. "Roman Columns" is the mental heuristic I use since a matrix is defined by its rows first and then its column such that a 2 X 5 matrix has 2 rows and 5 columns.

Next, it helps in the beginning to think of a matrix as a grid, labeling your rows  with letters (A, B, C, ...) and your columns with numbers (1, 2, 3, ...).

For question a, we just want to take the elements A1, A2, A3, A6 and A7 from matrix H and make that the first row of matrix G. And then we will take the elements B3, B4, B5, B6 and B7 from matrix H as our second row in matrix G.

For question b, we will be taking columns from matrix H and making them rows in our matrix K. The second column of H looks like this:

{[1.5]

[2]

[40]}

Transposing this column will make our first row of K look like this:

{[1.5  2  40]}

Repeating for columns 3, 5 and 7 will give us the final matrix K as seen above.
