In real-life physics, acceleration due to gravity will change respect to altitude. Check out the attached image (source: Wikipedia).

However, in high-school physics, acceleration due to gravity is represented by the letter g, which has a value of 9.81 meters per second squared.

This means that an object being dropped straight down will be moving 9.81 meters per second faster than it was 1 second ago. I hope this helps! :)

The answer is : a^2=1 x 2^n-1

To check if it’s correct

a^2= 1 x 2^2-1

a^2 = 1x 2
a^2 = 2

Hope this helps!

2/3 gas tank cuts 3 lawns how many does 1 gas tank cut

postnew [5]

(2/3) / 3 = 1/x...2/3 to 3 lawns = 1 to x lawns
cross multiply
(2/3)(x) = (3)(1)
2/3x = 3
x = 3 * 3/2
x = 9/2 or 4 1/2 lawns can be cut with a full tank of gas

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

If Lance got home from school at 3:32 p.m. A and B both represent:

A: seventeen minutes before 3 would be before 3 o'clock even happens

B: 28 minutes before 4 would make more sense, since 3:32 is before 4 o'clock

Lance got home 28 minutes before 4

Hope this helps ;)

How do you solve this?

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

y = -3/2x + 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Point: (5, -5)

Parallel to: y = -3/2x + 2

Slope= -3/2 (parallel lines have the same slope)

y-intercept = -5 - (-3/2)(5) (y - slope times x) =

-5 + 15/2 = 5/2
