Answer:

AB = 4.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = sum of areas of two rectangles

36 = [x(x - 4)] + [(x - 2)(2x + x)]

36 = x² - 4x + 3x² - 6x

4x² - 10x - 36 = 0

Dividing by 2:

2x² - 5x - 18 = 0

2x² - 9x + 4x - 18 = 0

x(2x - 9) + 2(2x - 9) = 0

(2x - 9)(x + 2) = 0

x = -2, 9/2

AB = x = 4½ cm

Answer:

AB = 9/2 cm

AB = 4.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of small rectangle

x * (x-4) = x^2 -4x

The area of  the big rectangle

The height is 2x +x  and the width is x-2

(2x+x) * (x-2)

(3x) * (x-2)

3x^2 -6x

Add the areas together

x^2 -4x + 3x^2 -6x

4x^2 -10x

This is equal to 36

4x^2 -10x=36

Subtract 36 from each side

4x^2 -10x -36=36-36

4x^2 -10x-36=0

Divide each side by 2

2x^2 -5x -18=0

Factor

(x + 2) (2 x - 9) = 0

Using the zero product property

x+2=0  2x-9=0

x = -2   2x =9

x = -2   x = 9/2

Since we cant have a negative length

x = 9/2

AB = 9/2 cm

The force of gravity on Mars is different than on Earth. The function of the same situation on Mars would be represented by the
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

If thrown up with the same speed, the ball will go highest in Mars, and also it would take the ball longest to reach the maximum and as well to return to the ground.

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that the gravity on Mars; surface is less (about just 38%) of the acceleration of gravity on Earth's surface. Then when we use the kinematic formulas:

v=v_0+a\,*\,t\\y-y_0=v_0\,* t + \frac{1}{2} a\,\,t^2

the acceleration (which by the way is a negative number since acts opposite the initial velocity and displacement when we throw an object up on either planet.

Therefore, throwing the ball straight up makes the time for when the object stops going up and starts coming down (at the maximum height the object gets) the following:

v=v_0+a\,*\,t\\0=v_0-g\,*\,t\\t=\frac{v_0}{t}

When we use this to replace the 't" in the displacement formula, we et:

y-y_0=v_0\,* t + \frac{1}{2} a\,\,t^2\\y-y_0=v_0\,(\frac{v_0}{g} )-\frac{g}{2} \,(\frac{v_0}{g} )^2\\y-y_0=\frac{1}{2} \frac{v_0^2}{g}

This tells us that the smaller the value of "g", the highest the ball will go (g is in the denominator so a small value makes the quotient larger)

And we can also answer the question about time, since given the same initial velocity v_0 , the smaller the value of "g", the larger the value for the time to reach the maximum, and similarly to reach the ground when coming back down, since the acceleration is smaller (will take longer in Mars to cover the same distance)

zepelin [54]

Answer:  a) 0.7

               b)  70%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) There are 10 marbles.The red marbles are 7

                so that  7/10

                 then change to decimal 7/10=0.7

b) if we get percentage *100

        so,    7÷10*100%

                 70%
