Tema [17]2 years ago

3 0

Answer:

3X + 3 = 168

3X + 3 - 3 = 168 - 3

3X = 165

3X/3 = 165/3

X = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by assigning X to the first integer. Since they are consecutive, it means that the 2nd number will be X + 1 and the 3rd number will be X + 2 and they should all add up to 168. Therefore, you can write the equation as follows: (X) + (X + 1) + (X + 2) = 168

Torque (or moment) is the measure of turning force or twist on an object. If a mechanic is applying 12 Newton centimeters of tor

SashulF [63]

Answer:

1.0638

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the question:

If a mechanic is applying 12 Newton centimeters of torque on a bolt how many pound inches would this be?

Torque = 12 Newton centimeter

Torque which is the turning effect on an object :

1 Newton = 0.225 pound force

1 centimeter = 0.394 inch

Hence ;

1 Newton centimeter = (1 × 0.225 × 0.394) = 0.08865 pound inch

12 Newton centimeter is hence, equals :

(12 × 0.225 × 0.394) pound inch

= 1.0638 pound inch

Find the work (in ft-lb) required to pump all the water out of a cylinder that has a circular base of radius 7 ft and height 200

Virty [35]

Answer:

work done is equal to 384279168 lb-ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The cylinder has a circular base of 7 ft.

The height of the cylinder is 200 ft

The weight density of water in the cylinder is 62.4 lb/ft^3

First, we find the volume of the water in the cylinder by finding the volume of this cylinder occupied by the water.

The volume of a cylinder is given as $\pi r^{2} h$

where, r is the radius,

and h is the height of the cylinder.

the volume of the cylinder = $3.142* 7^{2}*200$ = 30791.6 ft^3

Since the weight density of water is 62.4 lb/ft^3, then, the weight of the water within the cylinder will be...

weight of water = 62.4 x 30791.6 = 1921395.84 lb

We know that the whole weight of the water will have to be pumped out over the height of cylindrical container. Also, we know that the work that will be done in moving this weight of water over this height will be the product of the weight of water, and the height over which it is pumped. Therefore...

The work done in pumping the water out of the container will be

==> (weight of water) x (height of cylinder) = 1921395.84 x 200

==> work done is equal to 384279168 lb-ft

Please help???? Geometry

Musya8 [376]

Any line can be expresses as:

y=mx+b where m=slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1) and b=y-intercept (value of y when x=0)

First find the slope:

m=(2-0)/(8-0)=2/8=1/4 so we have thus far:

y=0.25x+b, we solve for b using any point on the line, (8,2)

2=0.25(8)+b

2=2+b

0=b

So the line is:

y=.25x which they might also express as y=x/4

The answer is E. (1/4)x
