Answer:

4 buckets

Step-by-step explanation:

number of buckets needed = 96 / 30

= 3.2

Since 3.2 is not a whole number (buckets cannot be split into small portions), and each bucket can only hold 30 golf balls, 4 buckets are needed to hold all golf balls.

Or else, if there is only 3 buckets, only 30x3 = 90 balls can be held, meaning there are 6 left.

A car is traveling in a race. The car went from the initial velocity of 35 m/s to the final velocity of 65m/s in 5 seconds what

The acceleration is defined as the ratio between the change in velocity and the time elapsed to perform such a change.

These "changes" are indicated with the capital greek letter delta, $\Delta$ , and when you write $\Delta x$ you mean the difference between the finial and the inital values of the variable x:

$\Delta x = x_{\text{fin}} - x_{\text{init}}$

So, the acceleration is defined as

$a = \dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t} = \dfrac{v_{\text{fin}} - v_{\text{init}}}{t_{\text{fin}} - t_{\text{init}}}$

In this case, the initial velocity is 35, the final velocity is 65. Assuming we start the clock at the beginning of the observation, the inital time is 0 and the final time is 5. So, we have

$a = \dfrac{65-35}{5-0} = \dfrac{30}{5} = 6$ m/s^2
