Answer:

The total weight of his purchase is 1.08 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total weight of his purchase, we sum the weight of each of his purchases.

He purchased:

4/9 pound of peanut.

7/11 pounds of raisins

Total:

The least common multiple between 9 and 11 is 99.

Then

$\frac{4}{9} + \frac{7}{11} = \frac{11*4 + 9*7}{99} = \frac{107}{99} = 1.08$

The total weight of his purchase is 1.08 pounds

The force (F) needed to cause the acceleration (a) of an object of mass, m, is given by the equation, F=ma where m is the object

KATRIN_1 [288]

From Newton’s Second Law of Motion, the force needed to accelerate a moving object of mass m at acceleration a is given by ;

F = ma

In this case, m = 5kg, a = 6m/s^2 and we want to find F

F = 5 x 6

F = 30N

Therefore, a force of 30N is needed to accelerate a 5kg object at 6m/s^2.

Solve. 5x - 5 = 50 A) x = 8 B) x = 9 C) x = 10 D) x = 11

Angelina_Jolie [31]

The answer would be D) x = 11.

Add 5 to both sides (5x = 50 + 5)

Simplify 50 + 5 to 55 (5x = 55)

Divide both sides by 5 (x = 55/5)

Simplify 55/5 to 11 (x = 11)

find the measure of the arc or angle indicated. assume that lines which appear tangent are tangent

Serjik [45]

Answer:

Option (1)

Step-by-step explanation:

By the property of alternate segment theorem,

"Angle formed between the tangent and the chord in a circle measures the half of the measure of the intercepted arc"

m(∠EFG) = $\frac{1}{2}$ × m(minor arc FG)

minor arc FG = 2m(∠EFG)

= 2(76°)

= 152°

Therefore, Option (1) will be the correct option.

Write a function rule in terms of x and y for the line that contains the points (-7.4, -9.7) and ( 8.4, 6.1) .

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

y = x + -2.3

x = -y - 2.3 (but why would one need this?...)

Step-by-step explanation:

(6.1 - (-9.7))/(8.4 - (-7.4)) = 15.8/15.8 = 1

6.1 = 8.4 + b

b = -2.3
