X^2 - x - 20
(x + 4)(x - 5) <==
x^2 - x - 20.....the last sign, which is negative, tells me that one set is positive and one set is negative. The first sign, which is also negative, tells me that the larger number will be negative. Now u have to find 2 numbers, that when added equal -1 and when multiplied, equal -20....those numbers are -5 and 4. so ur answer is : (x + 4)(x - 5)
The answer is the last one (absolute value)
5 times n=17 because you have to use algebra
The correct answer is 14.2 lb which is choice D.
Let:
F = minimum force required to prevent ball from rolling down the ramp
The formula will be:
F = w * sin theta
F = w * sin (39 degrees)
F = 22.6 * sin (39)
= 14.2 lb (this is rounded to the nearest tenth)
