step 1
convert pounds to ton
1 ton------> 2204.62 lb
<span>each crate weighs 80 pounds
so
by proportion
1/2204.62=x/80
x=80/2204.62-----> x=0.036 ton
each crate weighs 0.036 ton

step 2
divide 2 ton by 0.036
2/0.036=55.11 crate----------> 55 crate

the answer is
</span>the greatest number of crates that can be loaded onto the elevator is <span>55 

alalternative method
</span>step 1
convert ton to pounds 
1 ton------> 2204.62 lb
a freight elevator has a weight limit of 2 ton
2 *2204.62 -----> 4409.24 lb

step 2
each crate weighs 80 pounds
divide 4409.24 by 80
4409.24/80=55.11 crate----------> 55 crate

The length of a rectangle is seven more than double the width. If the perimeter is 22 inches find the dimensions
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

width = 1 1/3 inches

length = 9 2/3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

let 'w' = width

let '7+2w' = length

P = 2l + 2w

22 = 2w + 2(7+2w)

22 = 2w + 14 + 4w

8 = 6w

w = 4/3 or 1 1/3

substitute 1 1/3, or 4/3, to find length:

l = 7 + 2(4/3)

l = 7 + 8/3 or 9 2/3

Jay Spring pays $350.00 annually for his health insurance. This is 1/3 of the total cost of the premium; his company pays the re
WINSTONCH [101]

Q: How much did Jay have to pay excluding his share of the insurance premium?

A: $1800+$200 = $2000

Q: How much did Jay's company pay for his insurance premium?

A: $700. If Jay's $350 is 1/3 of the premium , then Jay's company pays 2*$350=$700 as rest of his premium.

Q: Jay paid 10% and the plan paid 90% beyond the deductible. How much did Jay's insurance company pay total?

A: Jay's insurance company paid $16200. Given that Jay paid $1800 beyond his deductible of $200 (and that is 10% of the actual cost) means that his plan (insurance company) paid 90%=9*$1800=$16200.

Q: How much did Jay have to pay total, including his share of the premium?

A: Jay paid $2350. He paid $200 deductible + $1800 beyond deductible + $350 premium

Se golpea (chuta) un balón sobre el piso y sale dando botes parabólicos cada vez menores. Si se lanzo inicialmente con una veloc
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

a)d = 180,91 m

b)t = 11,76 seg

Step-by-step explanation:

Para el lanzamiento de proyectil, la ecuación que nos da la velocidad en V(y) es:

V(y)  = Voy - g*t

en donde Voy = Vo * senα    ( donde Vo es la velocidad inicial, α el angulo del disparo.

Si en esta ecuación hacemos V(y) = 0 estamos en el punto donde el componente en el eje y de la velocidad del proyectil es cero, ese punto es el punto medio del recorrido.

0 =  Vo*sen 60⁰     - g*t

g*t  =  Vo* √3/2

t  = { 32 [m/s] * √3 }2*9,8 [m/s²]

t = 16*√3  / 9,8

t = 2,8278 seg

El tiempo total del primer recorrido es entonces por simetría

t₁ = 2 * 2,8278           t₁  = 5,6556 seg

La distancia del primer impacto al suelo es:

x = Vox * t₁                        ( Vox es constante   Vx = Vo*cos 60⁰ )

x  =  32 * (1/2) * 5,6556

x₁  =  90,49 m

Aplicando los mismos criterios ahora para el segundo bote

Ahora Vo = 32 -  32*(1/4)

V = 24 m/s

g*t  =  24 * sen 50⁰

t =  24* 0,7660/ 9,8  

t =  1,8759

2*t  = 2*1,8759

t₂  = 3,7518 seg

x₂  =  Vox * t₂

x₂  =  24* 0,6428*3,7518

x₂  =  57,88 m

Y para el tercer bote Vo =  24 - 24(1/4)        Vo = 18 m/s     α = 40⁰

t = 18 *0,6428/9,8

t  = 1,18

2t  = t₃  = 2*1,18

t₃ = 2,36 seg

x₃  = Vox * 2,36                Vox = Vo*cos 40      Vox = 18*0,7660  

Vox = 13,79

x₃  = 13,79*2,36

x₃  = 32,54 m

La distancia total será

d = x₁  + x₂ + x₃

d  =  90,49  + 57,88 + 32,54

d = 180,91 m

y el tiempo total será la suma de los tiempos

t =  t₁  +  t₂  +  t₃

t  = 5,65 + 3,75 + 2,36

t = 11,76 seg
