Answer:

The x - intercept is 1/3

The y - intercept is 1/2

The gradient is -3/2

Explanation:

To find the x - intercept of the equation 2y + 3x = 1, we find the value of x when y = 0. So,

2y + 3x = 1

2(0) + 3x = 1

0 + 3x = 1

3x = 1

x = 1/3

So, the x - intercept is 1/3

To find the y - intercept of the equation 2y + 3x = 1, we find the value of y when x = 0. So,

2y + 3x = 1

2y + 3(0) = 1

2y + 0 = 1

2y = 1

y = 1/2

So, the y - intercept is 1/2

To find the gradient of the equation 2y + 3x = 1, we re-write it in gradient intercept form by making y subject of the formula.

So, 2y + 3x = 1

2y = -3x + 1

y = -3x/2 + 1/2

The coefficient of x which equals -3/2 is the gradient.

The gradient is -3/2

Determine the angular speed, in rad/s of:

ryzh [129]

Answer:

Explanation:

A. The earth about its axis:

The earth makes one revolution in 24 hours. to know the number of revolutions per second it makes, we need to convert hours to seconds and the revolution to rad.

$\frac{1 rev}{24hours}\times \frac{1 hr}{3600s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 7.27 \times10^-5 rad/s$

B. The minute hand of the clock makes one revolution in 60 minutes

To convert this to rad per second, we have

$\frac{1 rev}{60mins}\times \frac{1 min}{60s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 1.745 \times10^-3rad/s$

C. The hour hand of a clock completes one revolution in 12 hours

$\frac{1 rev}{12hours}\times \frac{1 hr}{3600s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 1.454 \times10^-4 rad/s$

D. an egg beater turning at 300 rpm.

$\frac{300 rev}{1minute}\times \frac{1 min}{60s}\times \frac{2\pi}{1}= 7.27 \times10^-5 rad/s=0.0218rad/s$
